172RG hydraulic system

...and people wonder why Cessna doesn't make GA retracts anymore.
That looks exactly the same as the 182rg diagram.
I never had a problem and I never "worried" about it, but when compared to other GA retracts it is definitely on the weak side of things.

A picture of solid reliability.

Edit: You know people don't really think of a Cessna as being sexy but a 182/210 do have some appeal when the swoop in for a low pass without gear.

Good lord doing gear swings on a 182RG is probably the scariest thing I've done in maintenance.
 
Yeah no kidding, I nearly decked a coworker for not reading the book before swinging the gear once... it says "18 inches minimum" from the ground for a reason

BS. I don't buy it for a second and to even attempt it is just stupid. I'm not paid nearly enough for fruitless stunts like that.

Now, it is was a P-51 or something, I'd probably crawl out onto the wing or something to save it because I couldn't live with myself if I ruined a classic!

I agree with the P-51. I love that plane!!! I hear they were selling them dirt cheap just after the war ended. Surplus and all.
