Designed for both private pilots and commercial operators, this high-performance aircraft continues to stand out as a favorite for personal travel, aerial photography, and even skydiving operations.

A Brief History:

Introduced in 1964, the Cessna 206 evolved from its predecessor, the Cessna 205. It was designed to address the growing demand for a utility aircraft that combined power with passenger and cargo flexibility. Over the years, the 206 has undergone various enhancements, maintaining its position as a trusted workhorse in the aviation industry.

The aircraft has been manufactured in several variants, including the Stationair, Super Skylane, and Turbo Stationair, each tailored to specific needs. The Turbo Stationair, for example, features a turbocharged engine that enhances performance at higher altitudes.

Specifications and Performance:

The Cessna 206 is powered by a single-engine, most commonly the Lycoming IO-540 or Continental TSIO-520 (in turbocharged variants). Here are some key specifications:

• Seating Capacity: Up to 6 passengers, including the pilot.
• Maximum Cruise Speed: Approximately 140-160 knots, depending on the variant.
• Range: Roughly 700-850 nautical miles.
• Maximum Takeoff Weight (MTOW): 3,600 lbs (1,633 kg).
