    Re-skin 182 flap

    I have a 1876 Cessna 182P. I need to either put another patch on my left flap due to a puncture wound or get new top and bottom skins for it. Does anyone have advice on a shop that could do this more efficiently than my own mechanic, who is really good but doesn't do this every day. I'm not...

    Trip to Disney World

    If the weather cooperates, I'm taking my wife and two kids to Disney World in the Skylane for a week this February. We've booked a hotel on the park grounds.

I ended up getting a brand new Continental O-470 from Air Power Inc; they were great to deal with and cheaper than factory direct. I also got a JPI EDM-900...

    Need CFI with 182 near KROA

    I have 1300 hours in 172s, but I sold my 172 and hope to buy a 1976 182P. I don't have access to a 182 now. I need 5 hours for insurance and an endorsement for the more than 200 HP. Are there any CFIs with access to a 182 somewhere near Roanoke, Virginia out there?
