Cessna 182Q Skylane

Cessna 182Q Skylane

Cessna has built over 20,000 Skylanes since they began building them in 1956. There have been 23 models identified by the trailing letter. The Q model came out in 1977, which is almost 50 years ago. Most float plane photos I come across are from Alaska. This one is from Massachusetts.

  1. Amphibious floats ugh!
    I still say out LOUD every time "This is a water landing, so wheels UP and rudders DOWN!" or vice versa.

  2. I was not even aware that the rudders are retractable. Guess they would need to be, wouldn't they?
