More CESSNA U206G STATIONAIR IImanuals & documents

In this document

Powerplant and fuel

The IO-520-F is a normally aspirated, fuel-injected six-cylinder rated 300 BHP at 2850 RPM for 5 minutes and 285 BHP at 2700 RPM continuous. It takes 100LL or 100 grade fuel. The 1978 handbook lists 59 gal usable in standard tanks and 76 gal usable in long-range tanks. The 1981 handbook lists 88 gal usable.

Weights and loading

The 1978 handbook gives standard empty weight as 1908 lbs for the Stationair 6 and 1977 lbs for the Stationair 6 II. The 1981 handbook gives 1928 and 1989 lbs. Maximum ramp weight is 3612 lbs. Takeoff and landing weight is 3600 lbs. Baggage is limited to 180 lbs.

What to check when buying

One 1978 example is listed with 3061 hours airframe, 1440 hours since engine overhaul, complete logs, a February 2024 annual and an asking price of $389,900. Verify the engine and propeller hours, the logs, the fuel tank configuration, and the equipment list against the handbook.

Safety notes

  • The owner's manual, as quoted by BEA, warns that a tank at or below one quarter capacity can starve the engine after prolonged uncoordinated flight such as sideslips.
  • The AAIB 2015 report on a 1978 airframe describes an engine stoppage on downwind with fuel on board and no obvious cause found. The BEA 2022 report describes an engine shutdown in descent.
  • Keep baggage within 180 lbs and the weight within 3600 lbs; the handbook has loading arrangements for seats removed.
