I owned a c-182 in the past.yesterday I picked up a c-180 for a friend and was surprised how big it was. I thought the c-180 was the tailwheel version og the c-182. Now im not so sure? It seems like it is big ad a c-206? Any cessna experts out there that can educate me?

Most 182's have larger (wider) cabins than C-180's. My favorite 182 is a 1960C model fastback with the higher gear. Someone once said they are the fastest of the narrow body 182's. I think they look the best but I wish they had the elbow room of the later models.
Love all the Cessna 180's too.
