Cessna T182 history and development
The T182 represents a distinct development branch within the Skylane family. Cessna changed engines, landing-gear arrangement, fuel systems and certificated loading limits across the 182 series.
For this reason, this page treats the T182 as a separate model rather than assuming that loading information from another Skylane version applies automatically.
Cessna T182 fuel capacity
FAA type-certificate data identify 92 U.S. gallons total / 88 gallons usable.
The applicable aircraft POH/AFM and serial number remain controlling for operational fuel loading.
