Weights, balance and speeds

Stall speed is 61 kt clean and 54 kt in landing configuration, and Vso is 47 kt. Best glide is 83 kt. Vfe is 100, Vno 149 and Vne 182. The CG range is (+42.1) to (+47.4) inches at 3744 lbs. Load the baggage within its 100 lb allowance.

What to inspect

The NZ airworthiness directive schedule for the Cessna 206 series lists items on fuel lines, the exhaust system, turbocharger installation, the fuel selector valve and flexible fuel tanks. The Model 206/T206 maintenance manual sets inspection intervals and includes a Progressive Care program. Ask for proof of compliance.

Turbo and float considerations

The turbo training syllabus covers TIT limits, the waste gate, compressor failure and the oxygen system. Mixture response to a turbo failure differs from normally aspirated aircraft. A floatplane supplement under an STC for Aerocet 3400 amphibious floats lists TU206A-G and other 206 models. It must be carried in the airplane.

Safety notes

  • AD/CESSNA 206/62 Amdt 1 requires inspecting fuel hose end fittings on listed 206H and T206H serials. There were reports of loose fuel lines and in-flight engine failure.
  • Turbocharged 206 models need specific training on waste gate and compressor failures, TIT monitoring and oxygen use.
  • If the airplane has amphibious floats, the supplement says takeoff with known hull leak or structural damage is prohibited.
