Wing tip tank modification
Flint Aero wing tip transfer tanks (STC SA436EWE) are approved for the U206F. Each tank holds 15 U.S. gal, 14.9 usable, and the total is 30 U.S. gal (29.8 usable). Confirm the STC paperwork, the installed placards and the Supplemental Flight Manual #1 are with the aircraft, and which revision they are.
Weight and performance with the STC
The supplement clears the airplane, floatplane and skiplane versions to 3,800 lb maximum takeoff gross weight. Forward and aft CG limits are extended in straight lines to 3,800 lb. Maximum landing gross weight is unchanged. Stall speeds and rate of climb at 3,800 lb match the unmodified airplane at 3,600 lb.
Family context
The registry shows the 206 family (variants include 206, P206, TU206 and U206) with up to 6 passengers, up to 146 kt cruise, up to 600 nm range, up to 20000 ft service ceiling and up to 1600 kg MTOW. These are family maxima, not CESSNA U206F figures. Use the aircraft's own AFM.
Safety notes
- Transfer tip fuel only in level flight, when each main tank is 15 to 20 gallons below full and not supplying the engine.
- The tip fuel transfer pump switch must be off for takeoff, landing, filling and when the tanks are empty.
- If the flight plan needs tip fuel, test both transfer pumps early in the flight. Watch the main tank gauge to avoid overfilling.
