Pro tip - don't give the camera person Scotch until AFTER shooting the video. Otherwise, perfect.

Mark is the Mona Lisa Vito of Cessna airplanes.

Been chewing on the idea of making my own stock for my first deer rifle. It’s worthless by most people’s standards but I like it. Nice work!! Thanks for the motivation.

I’m totally geeked out. Thanks, Mark!

Very informative 😊

I'll take both. Will you take a check? :^D You have some very nice planes there. I bet you hope to sell them quick before you decide you'll keep one. :)

Gorgeous Skywagon. You almost had me until I saw all the android, I mean Dynon stuff…

I flew over yesterday from Tahoe. Should’ve stopped in. Went to Columbia and got a flat too 😂

Amazing planes! Thanks for all the info, I can only imagine how awesome those are to fly.

Incredible airplanes Mark! Those are definitely 2 examples of true sky "wagons". Not as expensive as I thought. Especially when compared to Carbon cubs for what they are and what they can do .

Another pro to a carbureted O-520 is it’s not finicky about hot starting, unlike some of the fuel injected models. Definite plus on floats.

Would there be a benefit to putting a 3-bladed prop on the 182?

Nobody else on RUclips does these types of videos. Very nice style. A true plane-lovers channel. (Perhaps you'd have more subscribers if you put giant red arrows in your thumbnails.) (That's a joke, btw.)

That 180 is Niiiiiiiiiiiice

I left California in 86 and moved to Portland Or.....at southwest skyways at TOA was a '79 182 with 2200 TT and a factory reman engine with 100 hours...I didn't have the 25,600 at the time to buy it at the time...still kicking myself over it

Fantastic 30 minutes! N641AB would be a great 125 kt cruiser!

Mark I would love to own the 182

Both of those planes are gorgeous. I wish I was able to pick up either of them!

Love the geek reviews. The 180 is exceptional.

I almost would rather live out of a nice 182 than to deal with real estate choices right now.

Some dream planes right there! Awesome video as always, thanks Sir

Rather than spending a lot of effort on reworking what are old planes of questionable design, why not make new planes that are vastly superior?

I greatly enjoy all your videos Mark. In the immortal words of Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour, I’m a “earthbound misfit,” but I live vicariously through RUclips and pilots such as yourself. Thanks.

I am headed out to by a Powerball ticket. If it hits, I will be in Placerville to pick up the 182 as soon as the check clears!

Someone out the 180 company 😂

Mark wirh a built-in teleprompter! Ma, I wish my memory was 1/2 as good😢.

Both of these planes are sooo nice!

Your presentation without notes is amazing. Big fan of s w u.

Wow! Those are both GORGEOUS airplanes, verry good, informative video, thankyou, Mark! You are right about the cost perspective.

I want the 180.

Beautiful airplanes.

Interesting the choices people make to modify their airplane. If one were happy with all the mods…good deal. If not, then a redo after spending almost 400K would be painful. My 185 after 24 years of ownership and mods isn’t for everyone, but it is perfect for my needs. Someone once said something like: you can go fast, takeoff and land slow and carry a load with a Skywagon (especially a 185). If you want to settle for only two of those, buy something else. I think that’s true…relatively speaking.

27:10 I like the width of the newer 182's. I finally got an up close look at a 185 yesterday- wow it is a bit narrow.

That 180 is my dream plane. That is if I can't have an Ag Truck which is basically the same wing and tail on a different fuselage, then yeah, this beauty. What a sweet plane. Edit (20 min mk): You're showing the cockpit of the 180. MEIN GOTT!! What an airplane!! That control panel is so clean and well built! And the lighting! Seats! Interior appointments! Man O Man! Thank you so much for showing this off! Made my day!

The 169N is absolutely stunning! 500 cu in engine must be making at least 400 ft lbs of torque. Hats off to Mark. You’re a wealth of knowledge.

Thanks Geekie Mark!

Very cool! However, that power push over stuff would give me the willies.

I was really hoping Don would finish his story about his Swedish instructor Yoakam.

The cost of the parts is crazy! Is this a part that you can make and install? Can you pay to have your made parts oked by the FAA? Thanks. I hope they are still monitoring this video.

1980 i flew the Sundowner ... yeap great memories of a near perfect (my view of it) airplane. Nice review, thank you.

What are the angles of the cuts you made?

I always thought that the TD conversion was the best way to go. Full flaps on a 150 you can point the nose straight down and max out at 70 mph.

Have you parked on a runway??? Growing anxiety expecting a crash any moment 😮😮😮

Sweet horsepower

What an aggravating person.

I looked at his fishing lodge, he knocked it out of the park on it for sure..i used to work at Carswell air force base in ft worth, i think i met ron somehow, the blue angels performed there..

You are a lucky man to be able to, and get to fly all these jewels..

Where can I get the STC? Any ideas what cylinder, pistons and propeller is needed?

Noticed 3 planes taking off right after each other at 9:00.

Good video.
