Use to love flying the early model 182's, much better than the later models! Use to have fun, on landing as you start the flare add enough power to arrest the sink rate just hovering down the runway at a foot or two. It would fly at 40 kts!! I did just under 700 hrs in 182's dropping meat. Apart from the 180/185 the 182 is one of cessnas geatest inventions! One of the only true 4 place aircraft. Full tanks, four bums and a few swags, no worries!
