Title: Why not replace the C185's with C182's?
Post by: jfkspotting on October 01, 2017, 02:58:33 AM
Why keep this expensive sub-fleet of barely 5 airplanes flying? Can't 182's on floats do a similar job? Is there any rhyme or reason?

The C-185 is a six seater with either 260 or 300HP, more akin to the 206 than the 182...
