C-182's to avoid?
I was speaking with a somewhat smug fellow the other day who claimed
older C-182's (1968 that I'm looking at) had inefficient wings and that
the Continental would not make it to 1500 hours; 1300 if I'm lucky. (The
one I'm looking at has 61 SMOH; about 5000 total; new paint, interior,
etc.). As far as I can tell there has been only a minor (factory) wing
configuration mod on the 182.
Is there a line in time or models where 182's should be avoided?
Better an older 182 or a newer 177 with 180 hp constant speed?
Thanks,
Alan.
