Description
This classic 180 has all the modern upgrades to make it a formidable taildragger for cruising or back-country adventures. The Texas Skyways’ Continental O-520-U/TS upgrade transforms this Skywagon, boasting 280 horsepower for stronger climb, better high-density-altitude performance, and more confident short-field capability. A fresh panel has been re-imagined with Garmin G5s, GNX-375 WAAS, GNS-430W WAAS, GTR-205 Com, EDM-930 Engine Monitor and S-Tec 50 autopilot with GPSS. What a bird for showing off or working hard!
