The Cessna 182 RG (Retractable Gear) occupies a distinctive place in general aviation history as a bridge between rugged utility and refined performance. Introduced in the late 1970s, it combined the proven reliability and forgiving handling of the classic Skylane with retractable landing gear and a more powerful engine, giving pilots improved cruise speeds and efficiency without sacrificing the aircraft’s reputation for stability and versatility. The 182 RG became especially popular for complex-aircraft training, business travel, and serious cross-country flying, helping countless pilots transition into higher-performance airplanes. Its legacy lies in showing that advanced features didn’t have to come at the cost of safety or practicality, reinforcing Cessna’s influence in shaping dependable, pilot-friendly aircraft that defined personal and professional flying for decades.
