Details

The Cessna 182 Skylane is one of the most popular, well-known sports and passenger planes worldwide, and is often used as a trainer aircraft. The Cessna was first licensed in 1956, and up until 1985 over 20000 units were built. In 1996, production of this ever popular aircraft began once more. The model has the same excellent appearance and flight characteristics as the original, and numerous details such as cockpit finish, flaps, and navigation lights make this Cessna 182 Skylane a superlative replica. A robust 3-wheeled landing gear makes taking off, and landing on grass strips easy, and with it's extremely smooth flight behavior, the Cessna 182 Skylane is ideally suited as an introduction into the realm of large models. The Cessna also functions well as a tow plane.
