The diesel looks cool but will it still be as slow as a regular
Skylane or is there a cruise improvement too?

Faster climb, and faster especially at altitude, being as it has a strong
turbocharger.

That's true. It could be a cool little high altitude machine.

So how is it to fly a 182 with the SMA engine? Is the fuel flow as low
as is claimed? I read he

"You can cross the Atlantic *by the Northern route without ferry tanks"

You can cross via the Northern Route with just about any production
airplane without ferry tanks. Longest distances are about 450NM each
between airports.

A little longer is the southern route. During WWII, the Allies built a
base in {then} British Guyana for bombers headed to North Africa. It's now
GEO, the international airport.
