Meet Cessna 206 Stationair
The 205, 206 and 207 family developed from Cessna's retractable-gear 210. Fixed landing gear and a utility role distinguish these aircraft from that ancestor. They have been used for commercial transport and private flying. This page centres on the 206, while each source identifies the particular Stationair version behind its figures.
