  • 100,000 views! Wow! 100,000 Thank you's to my viewers :-)
    I flew down to Bentonville, AR (KVBT) to start training for my
    complex and high performance endorsement. A friend told me
    Summit Aviation in Bentonville, AR had a Cessna 182 Skylane
    RG for rent so I thought why not knock out two endorsements
    in one plane, I also always wanted to fly a C182RG so I called
    and set up an appointment and I have to say... I LOVED IT! Its
    beautiful, well maintained and its engine has been upgraded
    from 235 HP to 265 HP (I've got to get me one of these ;-) ).
    I was a bit intimidated flying a complex/high performance
    airplane for the first time but in the end it turned out to be
    a very nice flight, a wonderful plane, the wx was great
    (a wee bit hot for my liking but... oh well) and I had a
    great CFI to boot. I look forward to going back to finish
    my complex/high performance endorsement next time
    I get a chance.

    I bought this exact year make and model last winter. I broke her in by flying from Virginia to Louisiana with a buddy of mine over two days. I've but a hundred hours on her since and I have to say I dearly love this airplane. She's fast when you want her to be, and slow when you want her to be. She's docile, efficient, and comfortable. I have regularly flown to Cape Cod or to Charleston, SC in 3 hours, and I just don't think I could be any happier. I highly recommend this airplane to anybody shopping.

      +Charles Turner My family and I just bought one too! Same year and same 260HP conversion. I flew it from California back to her new home in Missouri with a retied USAF fighter pilot friend. Took 3 days (one day grounded with weather) and 12 flight hours. So far I've put almost 20 hours on her including ferry and loving every minute of it :-)

    That is a gorgeous panel, im jealous.
    Tap the breaks before putting the gear up, and the RG's tires like to get bald spots, so don't break until you need to. The RG is a great machine
    Great Flying, Great Video!

    • @tonytheflyer
      @tonytheflyer  10 лет назад

      Thanks Andrew! It is a very nice plane, probably my favorite so far. I was pretty much trained from day one to fly RG's, my first CFI had me tapping the breaks after takeoff, reciting GUMPS before landing and looking out the window to visually check that the gear is down, of course, I lost some of that after years of flying fixed geared planes but it didn't take long to remember.
      And thanks for the sub! I hope you'll enjoy my future uploads!

    Nice video, the 182 has always been one of my favorite planes to fly, never flown an RG though. You'll enjoy flying Skylanes!. Basically they fly like a 172 but more stable and heavier in pitch especially on landing, want to make sure to hold the nose wheel off. Watching the short field takeoff, not as impressive as the fixed gear version, probably because the RG is heavier.

    • @tonytheflyer
      @tonytheflyer  10 лет назад +1

    I purchased my 182RG in 2006 and I LOVE it. Everyone warned me that I would have gear problems when I bought it but that was untrue. I had my first gear problem this year. My plane is not a Turbo, I dont fly near thunderstorms so climbing high isnt necessary. Mine cruises at 143knots and if the doors shut it will fly. If its turbulent then top it off and its pretty solid. Ive done fair amount of IFR flying in it as well. Wouldnt trade for anything!!

      Thanks Dr. Wilson! I think I surprised myself lol. The next time I flew that plane it wasn't as good but I could never tell if it was me or the different CFI I was with. Do you mean a TR182 or the fixed gear turbo 182R? My family and I have owned a different R182 with Alamo 260 engine conversion for years now. I've logged 600 hours in it so far and enjoyed every minute of it (except maybe the MX bill ;-). I know why the 182's been called the best personal aircraft ever made.

      @@tonytheflyer I had a 1979 turbo and retractable. I loved the plane - it was a train pulling to altitude and I would slap on the Os (plumbed oxy) and get high in the mountains. I found that when I dropped the gear, those big front gear doors acted a bit like a weather vane and would make my cross wind landings look like a high time ATP rated pilot. On those occasions when weather was marginal, could wallow around following the roads in a nice slow and responsive plane. The only plane I flew that I loved more was the cessna 206. Hope you keep enjoying flying. I have stopped flying over the last few years to engage in my other love which is racing (GT 4, GT3, and prototypes). Only so much money. LOL. Don

      @@donwilsonm.d.6621 Nice! We looked at a TR182 before we bought the R182 we have now but my mechanic suggested the added expense of a turbo is unnecessary for flying in the central USA, though there are some flights I wish I had a turbo. The mountains I often navigate around where I’m at are ever changing and generally come in various shades of gray or white as cotton. A month ago, I ended up at 14k trying to top some weather and even then I had to weave in and out of some “cloud canyons.”
      It actually ended up being a lot of fun! I have also noticed crosswind landings are not much of a problem in the R182. I've flown many times with 25-30 knot quartering and direct crosswinds and I always feel like I was expecting the landing to be much more challenging than it actually was. Stay safe with this COVID pandemic and thank you for your service as a Doctor in these difficult times. My Dad is also a Doctor and he hasn't been home for weeks.

      @@tonytheflyer Too bad about the turbo - it is a really simple turbo and a carbureted Lycoming. The turbo produced enough heat that I do not think I ever even thought of carb icing. The only think I did was really watch my temps and spent time doing so coming out of altitude and then allowed several minutes at idle when landed to cool the turbo. One of the things I did was maintain some throttle when I dropped the gear early - you get a big blast of cool air up through those front gear doors when they opened. I was always suspicious that a low power setting and opening those doors on a cold day could shock the engine a bit. Old bush pilot friend of mine made that suggestion and never had an issue in over 700 hours.
      We are staying safe up here with SARS - Cov2 and it is a challenge. Hats off to your dad (say hi from up here) and be very careful. Unfortunately this is a long haul issue and we have been agitating government since February - with no one really listening. I guess you would be socially isolated at 10000 feet just looking around LOL. My wife told me that I am in full PPE and socially isolated in my fire suit and helmet (visor down) on the track.

      @@donwilsonm.d.6621 The TR182 is turbo normalized (32” MAP redline) right? I have always thought turbo normalized engines were better on maintenance than ground boosted engines cause the engine never produces more power than a normally aspirated was designed to produce at sea level but again, according to my mechanic he said turbo normalized engines still get too hot. Regardless, I still love the R182 we have now. We sometimes talk about maybe upgrading to a twin as I just got my multi rating last year but I’m not quite ready to part with this plane yet. I'll tell my Dad you said hi! Luckily he works in more rural areas so he hasn’t seen many cases so far but I think it's starting to pick up everywhere now. He’s been isolating himself from my Mom and I just to be safe and we’ve been staying home as much as possible. I did go out last weekend to fly solo. The airport was IFR so nobody else was out there, very easy to social distance when you’re the only one there ;-) I went up and got some actual instrument practice to help maintain some level of proficiency and enjoyed the sunshine on top. It's nice that we both have hobby's that are easy to socially isolate ;-)

I would note where he said to put it up and the next time I would delay pulling it up until that spot and he would still say no and after down then tell me to retract it. Never did tell me why.

      Ours flyes at 154tas all day long. In cruise at 8,500 you will burn around 13.8 doing so.

  • @cblair0608
    @cblair0608 10 лет назад

    Well, there are 4 others at my airport and all cruise around 140 to 148knots. Im pretty sure the rigging is fine as it flies straight as an arrow if you take your hands off the controls. We all know the book speed is at the factory with only bare minimum instruments with no interior except the pilots seat. I've never seen a plane fly at the book speed and that is common knowledge. The gap seals will increase speed 4 to 6 knots at most. Your plane performs almost like a 210, I guess your just super lucky to have the first plane to ever fly at true book speed. Where do you live?

    Why don't the newer Cessna 182's have retractable landing gears?

    • @tonytheflyer
      @tonytheflyer  8 лет назад

      +n310ea I don't know, possibly the extra cost, added weight and the fact that the fixed gear C-182's were more popular than the RG's. Cessna stopped producing most of their GA fleet in the mid 80's due to rising liability expenses then when they resumed production in the mid 90's they brought back only their most popular models, like the C-172, C-182 and C-206 all fixed gear. It'd be cool if they did, imagine, C-182RG with G1000 :-)

    @jakejones5736 8 лет назад +2

    So what does it take to graduate from a 172 to a 182RG?

    • @tonytheflyer
      @tonytheflyer  8 лет назад

      +Jake Jones Well it's best to graduate to something in between first like a Piper Arrow or C182 fixed gear but I skipped that step ;-) I would say just good training and practice, theoretically one could go from a C172 to B737 with nothing in between although the learning curve would be near vertical.

    • @jakejones5736
      @jakejones5736 8 лет назад

      +tonytheflyer If I understand correctly, the 182RG is constant speed prop as well (complex). So other than performance difference, I think the 172 & 182 would be pretty similar. Thus, I would rather go straight to 182RG like you did. But, and that's a BIG "but", I haven't been current in over 10 years! So guess I got a lot of catchin' up to do.

    • @tonytheflyer
      @tonytheflyer  8 лет назад +1

      +Jake Jones Yes, the C-182RG has a constant speed prop, retractable gear and flaps which makes it a complex airplane, but in addition to all that it has an engine of more than 200 HP (235 to be exact on stock C-182's but this particular aircraft has a 265 HP upgrade :-) so both complex and high performance endorsements apply. That does make it a one stop shop for complex and HP training which is why I wanted to fly it.
      As far handling, being a Cessna product, it does handle very much like a fast and heavy C-172 so biggest part of transitioning is getting used to extra controls and speed. I always recommend starting small and simple and working up but if the C-182RG is your goal then go for it! Just be ready for a little extra leaning curve. Good luck with getting current and welcome back to the aviation community! Like they always say "it's like riding a bike", with wings and a lot more controls ;-) Fly safe and enjoy!

    • @Xiderpunk
      @Xiderpunk 6 лет назад

      The airframes whilst extremely close between the 172 and 182 there is a marked difference in the handling. The 182 with the bigger engine is noticeably heavier in pitch during throttle changes, it is also more lively in the climb, so you have to think a bit faster to keep ahead.
      The 182 excels in it's shortfield performance over the 172 due to the extra horses and higher weight.. it's less floaty on landing.
      The higher horses induce more torque so rudder trim on the 182 is useful.

      +Christian Benn In general around $10,000 +/- depending on what part of the country you're in, typically more in the east and west and less in the mid-west. There's also a sport pilot certificate which usually cost around $5,000.

    Does Cessna still make the retractable gear model for the 182?

      Negative, unfortunately. It be nice to have the new panel layout or G1000 in a retract 182 but no such luck.

    • @HarleyQuinn_93
      @HarleyQuinn_93 9 лет назад

      Thanks for the reply +tonytheflyer my selections for a plane I will purchase someday are:
      Cessna 182
      Beechcraft Bonanza
      Piper Arrow
      Extra 300 SC(I love aerobatics
      Waco YMF-5D Biplane(aerobatics again)
      Diamond DA40(may or may not but this company interests me because the control is a stick rather than a yoke)
      Cirrus SR22(same thing about the controls, it's a yoke cut in half, left handed flying and right handed adjusting, just the way I like it!)
      Mooney Acclaim Type S(fastest certified single engine piston plane at 242 ktas, it also gets over 1800 nautical miles)

    • @tonytheflyer
      @tonytheflyer  9 лет назад

      Lucas Harper That's a long list lol! And good choices too! I used to have a long list myself and it'd change it every day ;-) These days I think I've got it narrowed it down to:
      Cessna Skylane
      Piper Saratoga II TC
      Piper Seneca V
      (2000 model year or newer and steam gauge preferred on all ;-)

      The Lowmein For the most part it's just in the video, I've noticed it a little before especially when some is talking but it's not anywhere near as loud. I rarely ever notice it.

    • @steveloomis4086
      @steveloomis4086 7 лет назад

      The squeal is alternator whine. Cessna has a noise filter for the alternator. Could be corrision on battery terminals as well. Look here: www.avweb.com/news/maint/182896-1.html

  • @chrisbrown05819
    @chrisbrown05819 10 лет назад +1

    Just curious but why retract the gear with a positive rate? I'm a CFI and I Tell my students to retract the gear when they are out of usable runway.

    • @tonytheflyer
      @tonytheflyer  10 лет назад

      Good question Chris, I think everyone has their preference, I hear a lot of people use “positive rate” particularly in the airlines and I hear some use “no useful runway”. I also know in some airplanes it’s best to wait to retract because drag will increase during retraction while in others it deceases steadily. I guess it could depend on the runway length too.

    • @chrisbrown05819
      @chrisbrown05819 10 лет назад

      tonytheflyer
      The reason I was taught to bring them up when you're out of useful runway just because if you have an engine failure, you still have the gear down and you're in a position to land. When I transitioned to multi engine aircraft, positive rate is when we retracted the gear. How's the 182? the 182RG is a great airplane! 155 kts is pretty impressive!

    • @tonytheflyer
      @tonytheflyer  10 лет назад

      ***** Singles vs. twins might make a difference but I did see in one video in a pilot flying a PA-34 said no useful runway. I do agree! I loved flying the C182RG, not sure what affect on drag the gear has in transit in the C182RG, my guess would be not much but I'm not sure.

      Thanks John! It still surprises me that by far, this is my most popular video. I don't have that camera anymore and now that I have my own plane I use a ceiling mount for my GoPro and really ever use the head strap but on occasion when I do, it turns out better with video stabilization nowadays. Maybe one of these days I'll get around to editing the hundreds of hours of video I have but I've just been concerned about privacy and problems RUclips Pilots have had with the FAA.

      How do you know I didn't? I started learning to fly in a 1977 C172 and every time we took off the wheels would shake and rattle as they slowed down so I learned early on to tap the brakes just after lift off. Thanks for the comment John! Fly safe and have fun!

    Almost sounds like you know it all. Great video but you were fishing for complements and didn't take constructive criticism at all.

We all can learn regardless of how long we have been flying for.

    • @tonytheflyer
      @tonytheflyer  10 лет назад

      Hmm...? you may need to be more specific. I may have been too busy to say anything intelligible at the time, it may not be noticeable, but deep down that day I actually felt quite tense and a maybe even little overwhelmed. You can’t always just stop and talk about something. That’s also one of the reasons I record these videos is for my own playback value, I often watch the whole video back because I can’t always remember everything my CFI said, then I write down things to discus on the next lesson. We also talked for a while afterwards, probably about the same things you’re referring to.

    • @Anrboy
      @Anrboy 10 лет назад

      Honda, everyone has their own way of learning. Personally, if I'm wrong, I question the instructor about it until he convinces me of it. If I feel like what he said agrees with what i think/know, I do exactly what tony does. "brush it off" so that I can move on to something else.
      I think this learning style comes off as a "know it all" but it is very efficient for learning things.

    • @tonytheflyer

      Joseph todd Sounds like 3 problems, They are overdriving the input on the camera (need an attenuator and/or need to turn down the intercom volume), the alternator is putting out dirty unfiltered power creating the loud squeal and then strobe lights adding a clicking sound every half-second.
      The first problem would be and easy fix, the 2nd and 3rd would require a certified mechanic. As is typical with my own experience in aviation, things are almost never perfect.
