Desert Pilot - Michael Johnson

Over Thanksgiving I flew 689nm, between KDVT and KLAW with a stop at KSXU. With a nice tail wind, my #Cessna #Skylane burned 69 gallons of fuel over 5.3 hrs Hobbs time, averaging 13 gph. We used to drive this each year and it would take 14 hrs and about 45 gallons of MoGas.

Very true!! Glad we ended up with the 182 over some others we looked at like a Mooney. Also great airplanes, faster and more efficient but not as roomy!

700nm cross country in my #Cessna #182Q! Continually impressed with the capabilities of the 182. Truly a family hauler! In the future I'll post more about the performance and capabilities of it! #flying #GeneralAviation #Skylane
