Every day, our team at Aircraft For Sale selects an airplane that catches our attention because it is different, is a good deal, or has other unusual or interesting features. You can read Aircraft For Sale: Today’s Top Pick at FLYINGMag.com daily.

Today’s Top Pick is a 2007 Cessna 182T Skylane.

The Cessna 182 Skylane has earned its reputation as a go-to utility aircraft. This 2007 model continues that legacy with a G1000 panel, clean airframe, and well-chosen upgrades.

Pilots appreciate the 182 for its ideal blend of cruise speed, payload capacity, and runway flexibility. This aircraft checks all the boxes for serious VFR and IFR flying. With the Garmin G1000 suite and GFC 700 autopilot, pilots can rely on a fully integrated and highly capable flight deck.

The airframe has 3,137 hours and is described by the seller as “neat as new.” Located in Shoreham, England, the airplane shows no damage history and has been well maintained. Avionics highlights include dual WAAS GPS, Garmin GTX 345R ADS-B In/Out transponder, Garmin terrain awareness and active traffic, Garmin GDL 69A XM weather and radio, and WX-500 Stormscope. A 406 MHz ELT is also installed.

Inside the cabin, comfort and utility are addressed. Kelly air conditioning keeps the cabin cool. AmSafe airbag seat belts are installed for all four seats. Rosen sun visors,  Reiff engine preheater, and custom canvas cover show the owner’s attention to detail in maintaining, equipping, and operating the aircraft.

Additional touches like vortex generators, stabilizer abrasion boots, and Guardian CO detector add utility and peace of mind. The paint is crisp and well maintained, while the interior shows light wear and remains clean and practical. The seller is upgrading to a Citation, a good indicator that this Skylane is being replaced as part of a planned progression rather than offloaded due to problems.

Priced at $325,000, this well-rounded 2007 Cessna 182T Skylane offers modern avionics, reliable performance, and the kind of mission flexibility that makes it a favorite among owner-pilots.
