Re: Third window 182

:
1st widebody 182 i've ever seen converted.

Wide body is so comfortable, one of the main reasons I have one. Too bad this one is experimental exhibition, kinda useless...

Its been post on Barnstormers before; very attractive looking, but will be a "tough" sell I expect due to its status

I did an air to air with EAA in the mid 90's and they used one of the photos in an insurance ad I think.

My advice is if you want the 3rd window buy a later airplane. I bought the airplane as an unfinished project, the previous owner had bought all new Cessna parts to repair a severely corroded airframe. The bulkhead and skin were already riveted in place or I would have never attempted it. It does make for a larger cabin feel.
