Yep, so a 182 on wheels only requires a high performance endorsement.
On floats a 182 requires a complex and high performance endorsement.
Yep, though I'm not sure why one on straight floats would be considered complex but that is the rule.
It baffles me too. It also baffles me why a float plane on amphibious floats doesn't require an endorsement of some sort. The amphibious floats present a far bigger opportunity to create an accident than an airplane that simply has a constant speed prop and flaps does.
But, it is the rule.
