Luckily for us, Carenado’s virtual version comes in considerably cheaper. As of February 2012, a basic T182T would set you back $443,500 (US dollar), while a full-option model would cost no less than $564,450. The Garmin 1000 Glass Cockpit was first offered as an option in 2005, and is now standard equipment. Currently Cessna builds the 182T, naturally aspirated version with a fuel-injected 230hp Lycoming engine, and the T182T, the subject of this review, which has a turbocharged Lycoming delivering 235hp which also uses fuel injection. While Cessna stopped building the C182 in 1985, they resumed production in 1996 and it continues up to this day. Over the years, more than 23,000 Cessna 182’s have been built, in more than 20 variants. While the 182 is still a 4-seater aircraft, it does have the option of putting 2 extra child seats in the baggage area. Compared to the even more popular 172, the 182 is bigger, faster, flies higher and further, and is considerably more expensive. In 1957 the name ‘Skylane’ was introduced. The Cessna Aircraft Company introduced the C182 in 1956 as a tricycle gear version of the Cessna 180. Carenado, a well known developer of good looking general aviation type add-ons recently introduced their newest product for FSX and Prepar3D: The Cessna T182T Skylane with Garmin 1000 Glass Cockpit.
