I have a 182S and yesterday I flew from fargo to Duluth and did some approaches, the flight was super nice from fargo to KDLH, shot 2 approaches and one into another airport, stoped for fuel and my right wing took 26 gallons and my left took 5, I always fly a coordinated airplane So I ruled that out I re trimmed it 20 times throughout the flight to make sure I hate leaning left, on the cross country part.
