Cessna 180F history and development

The cataloged production period is 1963.

Cessna 180F is a Cessna 180 Skywagon-family model covered by FAA TCDS 5A6. The selected suffixes span 180C through 180K and multiple model-year changes. Engine, gross-weight, fuel and optional float/skiplane configurations vary across the series, so this page preserves unresolved figures as unverified technical values.

Cessna 180F fuel capacity

exact model-specific fuel capacity / usable fuel has not yet been verified from the applicable certification record, approved flight manual, or manufacturer data. Do not infer it from a neighboring Cessna/Reims-Cessna model or suffix.

Cessna 180F model applicability and configuration

Verify exact model designation, serial number, engine, fuel installation and approved configuration against the applicable certification record and individual aircraft documentation.

Cessna 180F weight and balance

Use the exact model/serial-number loading data and the individual aircraft's approved weight-and-balance record. No baggage limit is inferred from a related model. The exact model-specific maximum takeoff weight / gross weight remains unverified until the applicable approval section is verified. Operational loading must use the aircraft-specific empty weight, CG, station arms and limitations. Use the approved aircraft-specific documentation and current weight-and-balance record for operational calculations. WBcalc does not currently provide a model-specific Cessna 180F calculator.

Always verify aircraft applicability. Check the current POH or AFM, equipment list and weight and balance records for the individual aircraft.
