Hi all. I'm new to the Cessna Owners group. I fly a 1956 182 and live in Fort Wayne, IN.

This is the second 182 I've owned. My 56' has a new factory motor in it (<70hrs) and i'm currently redoing the entire interior (seats, side panels & flooring).

I have a jumpdoor on the plane as I'm a skydiver and like to take my friends up to jump. The nice thing is they're all Pilots too so we take turns flying and jumping.

Like I said, I've only been a member a short time but already learning some great information. I look forward to sharing our love and interest of these aircraft and learning from you all.

    That makes a really nice simple jump plane. It should give you a lot of good years and many jumps. Carl

    Welcome to Cessna Owners! Nice looking aircraft. There is no way anyone will get me to exit a perfectly good flying aircraft! The problem is that I might enjoy it, and the last thing I need is another hobby!

    Enjoy all the Cessna Owner Organization has to offer!

    Regards,

    Mike
