Get your cash offer — 2 quick steps, no obligation
Don't pour money into a fresh annual just to list it. We buy your Skylane as-is and pay cash — one offer, one closing, done in days.
The Cessna 182's extra useful load and capability is exactly why Skylane owners call us: a due annual, an aging panel, or open ADs like the McCauley prop and fuel-system service bulletins can turn a private sale into a money pit. Retail buyers over-discount those squawks and string the sale out for months. We buy Skylanes exactly as they sit, take on the compliance ourselves, and pay cash.
Selling it yourself instead? Our complete guide to how to sell an airplane walks through pricing, paperwork, the pre-buy and escrow step by step — and how we work out what an airplane is worth explains the number.
"The entire process was smooth, professional, and faster than I expected. I recently got hired at an airline and didn't have time to manage the annual or deal with listing the airplane myself, but Cash4Planes made it super easy. We were able to close remotely on my schedule, which was a huge help. Overall, a great experience. I'd definitely recommend them to anyone looking to sell their airplane quickly and hassle-free."
"Very professional transaction on the sale of my aircraft. Professional team that were straight forward and easy to do business with."
"Tom responded quickly, and followed up with positive choices to get cash for my plane. Thank you, won't hesitate to call again."
Contact Cash4Planes for a direct cash offer. We typically close in 5–10 business days — no broker, no listing, no buyer financing contingencies.
Yes, as-is. Deferred maintenance, a due annual, or an aging panel won't stop the deal. We make a cash offer on the airplane exactly as it sits.
We buy Skylanes with open ADs and outstanding service bulletins. We handle compliance after purchase — it doesn't have to be resolved before you sell.
Most cash purchases close in 5–10 business days through a licensed aircraft title company. We come to your ramp.
Either works. A "Cessna 182 for sale" listing on Trade-A-Plane or Controller means photos, showings, pre-buys, and often months of waiting while the hangar bill keeps running. A direct cash offer skips all of that — one number, one closing, done in about a week. If speed and certainty matter more than squeezing out the last retail dollar, the cash route usually wins.
Yes — the 182RG, T182 and T182T, along with every fixed-gear 182 from the straight-tail 1950s airplanes to the 182T. Each is priced against its own comparable sales.
No. We see it often. A documented repair is a small adjustment; an undocumented one means we price in the inspection and any repair ourselves. Either way, we'll still make an offer.
