Order placed. Dropping the 182 off June 18 for install. Pirep coming in about 1 month. Thanks for all the input!

That’s it. Placing order tonight!

Thanks that’s the pirep I was looking for.

I’m looking very serious at this install in my 182. Anyone have experience with it?

I have looked at them. My thoughts were. More plane than I need. How does it compare with the 210?

Great info! Thanks!

Yep. The ones I,m looking at are in the 175k to 225k range.

Title says it all. I am a 500 hour IFR rated pilot. Looking for increased speed and ability to climb over small summer storms. Any P 210 advice would be useful. Positive or negative.

Scratching my head on this one!

Not really. I hold 92 gals 88 usable. So I have over 2 hrs reserve.

I have a 182Q. Wheel fairings and flap gap seals. I average 135-140 knots. With 12 gph. I regularly fly from KBHM TO X51. Average 4.5 hours 55 to 60 gallons per trip.

I throw beer cans and cigarette butts out all the time!

Garmin GTX ADS-B in and out. $6,600.00. S-Tec 55X auto pilot with electric trim. $27,930.00. Aspen Pro 1000 PFD with Syn vision. $14,900.00. The other $50k interior and exterior paint.

I've flown in a couple of times in the past couple of months. Fairly easy. Nice FBO. Loaned me a car once and a van the next. Topped off with fuel both times. So no extra charges. Have to contact ground when ready to taxi. Not much to see and do around Gainsville.

LOL! I am experience in the vastness and boring aspect of the glades. I fly into Homestead X51. I am tomorrow. I have a friend who is a licensed charter captain in the Everglades. He wants me to fly him around so he can plot some new fishing areas. The western shoreline is beautiful.
