Meet Reims F406 Caravan II
The F406 Caravan II came from cooperation between Reims Aviation and Cessna. Despite the Caravan name, it is a twin-engine utility aircraft and is distinct from the single-engine Cessna 208 family. Its own airframe, systems and simulator documentation are grouped here to keep that naming overlap clear.
