182 Right Seat Checkout

Spring has finally arrived in the Pacific NW and we've had two days of sunny and 60 degree weather (3 inches of snow fell two days ago in my neighborhood). I had planned to go out and do some instrument approaches for currency, but with the perfect weather I opted for a check-out from the right seat in my 182. So I grabbed my regular CFI and went out and demonstrated the usual things (slow flight, stalls, simulated engine failure, etc.). Having just recently completed my CFI training in a C172RG, flying the 182 from the right seat went pretty well (considering that prior to today's flight, 100% of my hours in the 182 were in the left seat).
