Thanks for the comments everyone its hard to keep track anyway i have considered gliding before and i tried once and didn't like the idea of us freefalling... slowly. I'm not sure whether to try the 182 at my flying school might be worth having a go anyway at the moment its trial and error until i get comfortable in one aircraft. About the comments on a two engined aircraft and engine failures i don't think of it that way i just pick the aircraft best for learning to fly.
Thanks
