By the
1964 G-model the Skylane was widened and restyled to the basic fuselage
that is still in production today. By the time production started
on the 1966 J model, the prop spinner was redesigned, the windshield
was a factory 1-piece unit, and the yokes and pedals had been
redesigned.
N24JC is a rare full Robertson STOL equipped 182 : this modification is very rare in the 1960's vintage (more affordable) Skylanes due to the cost of the modification. The R-Stol enables this plane to fly at 40 mph with its' drooping ailerons, stall fences and leading edge modifications. In the late 1970's this modification was about $15,000 and thus most of the aircraft that were converted were brand new at the time. This Skylane has been based on the front range of Colorado since the mid 1970's and was corrosion proofed in 1968 which has kept corrosion levels very low. It has complete logs, no hail damage and a near new Western Skyways engine. This plane is based at Longmont and is available for inspection by appointment. |

Paint and Interior
Paint is done
in a 1977 182Q scheme, brown and gold on white. There is
significant chipping paint on the left side of the cowling. The
paint is showing its age and, although it has been hangared, it
has lost some gloss. There is significant leading edge
chipping. Glass is in good condition although the co-pilots'
forward side glass is showing some milkiness at certain sun angles.
Interior was done in the mid
2000's and is in very good condition. Seats were done by M&K
with leather and wool. Carpet and side panels in very good
condition. Headliner is original and in very good condition aside
from a significant stain on the forward right area near the vent.
