Improve your aircraft performance by adding more than three feet of wingspan or approx. 12.4 square feet of wing area to your aircraft. "More Wing More Lift it's that simple". Our kit for the Cessna 180, 182 and 185 has a specially engineered "Wing Reinforcement", and when attached along the main spar this modification increases the overall strength of the wing and gives you a dramatic gross weight increase.

All C-180 and C-182 owners will benefit with a GTOW of 2,950 lbs. approved on wheels, floats and skis as well as providing enhanced performance throughout the flight envelope.

Cessna 185 owners will immediately benefit from an increase of 175 lbs. in the useful load and a newly certified GTOW of 3,525 lbs. approved on wheels, skis, amphibs and straight floats.

You can now carry that extra passenger or payload and still have great performance.
