Cessna 206 specs

Six-seat fixed-gear high-wing hauler, 300 hp Continental IO-520-F, ~150 kt cruise, ~1,800 lb useful load — the Stationair is one of the most capable load-carrying singles ever built.

Cost to own a Cessna 206

Fixed gear keeps maintenance simpler than the 210, but a Continental IO-520 overhaul reserve is still the biggest line item. Co-ownership spreads the reserves and the hangar so partners can share one of the most capable piston workhorses in general aviation.

What's different about the Cessna 206

  • Exceptional useful load — close to 1,800 lb on many variants — lets it carry six adults, cargo, or heavy gear off short and rough strips where other six-seaters cannot go.
  • Fixed gear makes it far simpler and cheaper to insure and maintain than the retractable 210; the Continental IO-520-F is widely supported and every A&P knows it.
  • Float conversion and cargo-pod options make it one of the most versatile platforms in piston aviation — a genuine working airplane, not just a hauler.

About the Cessna 206

The Cessna 206 Stationair is the hauler of the Cessna family. Where the 172 and 182 optimized for four-seat touring, Cessna built the 206 around a single priority: put as much as possible inside a high-wing single and get it off a short, rough strip. The result is a six-seat, fixed-gear airplane with a useful load that approaches or exceeds 1,800 lb on many variants — more than almost any other piston single — and a cabin wide enough to fit a cargo pod under the belly or take floats for water operations.

That utility profile is why the 206 has been a workhorse in Alaska, the Pacific Islands, the Caribbean, and anywhere a reliable piston single needs to carry people and freight into airstrips that challenge anything with retractable gear. For co-owners, it is one of the most practical shares in general aviation: the fixed gear keeps the annual and insurance straightforward, the Continental IO-520-F is well-supported everywhere, and the big cabin genuinely hauls everyone in the group. Splitting the engine reserve and the hangar across partners makes a 206 surprisingly affordable relative to what it delivers.

Cessna 206 — frequently asked questions

Quick answers for buyers and prospective co-owners.

What is the Cessna 206 Stationair?

The Cessna 206 Stationair is a six-seat, fixed-gear, high-wing single powered by a 300 hp Continental IO-520-F. It is built around exceptional useful load — often close to 1,800 lb — giving it the ability to carry six occupants plus baggage, carry cargo, or take off from rough strips on big tires. Widely used in bush flying, island hopping, and utility operations, it is the working airplane of the Cessna line.

How much does a Cessna 206 cost to own?

Less complex than the retractable-gear 210, but the Continental IO-520 overhaul reserve is still the largest single cost — plan on setting aside a meaningful amount per hour from the first flight. Fixed gear keeps the annual inspection simpler and eliminates the gear-related insurance premium. Co-ownership spreads those reserves and the hangar across partners, making the 206 one of the most affordable ways to access a genuine six-seat, utility-capable single.

Is the Cessna 206 good for co-ownership?

Very — the 206 is one of the most practical partnership aircraft. Its fixed gear keeps maintenance predictable, its Continental engine is well-supported everywhere, and its cavernous cabin hauls real loads for all the partners. Groups that fly family trips, camping runs, or frequent short-field operations find that a shared 206 is a remarkably cost-effective answer.
