Our Pawnee has automotive rearview mirrors attached to the wing struts
and motorcycle mirrors attached to the cross member above the instrument
panel. Of course the Pawnee has a back window; does your 182? The
mirrors on the struts are pretty much useless since they have a small
field of view, are mounted far away from the pilot, and are ground
adjustable only. Our Ag Wagon has a remote controlled (via mechanical
cable) automotive mirror mounted to the side of the fuselage just
forward of the door. It's quite useful. Maybe you can get field
approval for a mirror mounted just forward of the door with the control
mounted to the panel. You might need one on each side of a 182.

Hi all,
We have two Cessna 182's towplanes and need a mirror solution.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Noel
