Aubrey, I thought I was the only one that thought these 182's were overpriced with run out engines, poor original paint & interior with basic radios... same with 172's series. The market is just crazy in asking prices with the junk aircraft continue to be advertised and the good ones go in a day by word of mouth. I'm looking for a good plane for my snl.

Mike, Of course you are absolutely correct. I've looked at several that should have been "nice aircraft" from their asking prices, however upon further review they certainly were not was what was represented. I think that is more my frustration than the "price". It is like all things in the market, real estate/ planes etc. if it's been on the market for a long time there is a reason. I believe the Basic Med has had a positive influence on smaller aircraft market, all good hopefully.

Best to have quick cash and a quick close.......and patience for truly worthy aircraft.

There are a lot of days I wish I'da kept the Skylane... Yes. I really like the skylane. If i have to choose between the 36 and the 182 for my mission, there isnt a doubt. (Might be a more difficult choice if a 35 was involved but probably not)

I've searched every corner of Barnstormers, Trade-A-Plane, Controller, and findaircraft. We've found some that would work, but nothing that meets what I want. I'm looking for one to finish my PPL/IR/CPL and build time.
