Don't know about the TR182. Only flown one. Bloody thing used 65 l/hr at my usual 9 - 10 k and only managed 155.
Maybe "
decent" is the key word. It was that aeroplane that got me onto the FTDK. I figured I had to get a better aeroplane to fly before my luck ran out.
On my last trip in the TR182 - the oil leaked out of the compass; the A/H rolled upside down (not vac pump failure) and then I had a total electrical failure.
