Our Pawnee has automotive rearview mirrors attached to the wing

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

Thanks Dan, I think the only way an in-cockpit mirror would work if it was glare-shield mounted. The 182 sits pretty nose forward, being a tricycle gear
