There's a legend in aviation. About an airplane that's more than just a machine. An airplane that represents a way of life. It's a legend about guts. Ruggedness. Determination. Trusted reliability. It's a legend called the Cessna Stationair.

From 1964, the Cessna 206 replaced the Cessna 205 of 1962, in a line of aircraft originally produced as utility flying station wagons, descendants of the Cessna 210. Initially known as the Super Skywagon, that name was dropped in 1969, and in 1971 the type was produced as the U206F Stationair, with a new three-bladed prop. The 206 included, among its more significant features, an optional cargo pannier fitted below the fuselage, and a 42 inch (107 cm) double cargo door on the rear starboard fuselage. Among its successes were sales to small-town undertakers, who found the cargo door could easily accommodate a coffin; and its popularity as a jump-ship for skydivers. Variants included the P206 ("P" for personalised, rather than the standard pressurised), without the cargo door, and with de luxe interior and streamlined wheel spats, and the TU206A, with a turbocharged TSIO-520-C engine. Production of the 206 ceased in 1985, and the line continued with the elongated Cessna 207 Skywagon. Various subsequent third-party developments of the 206 included the Soloy Turbine Pac conversion, and a STOL version developed by the Robertson firm. Whether it's hauling cargo in some remote outback, skimming on floats across a deep North Country lake, taking a family of six on a long-awaited vacation, or bringing a business team face-to-face with an important customer — one legendary aircraft stands alone as the hardest-working piston Single in the business.
