I want one

[SoFlo]

A buddy of mine just purchased a brand new Cessna Turbo 206 with the G1000 panel. That was one fine piece of machine and I know I would look good in it. He took me up for a little flight and man that thing is fun. I know I may be new here but my birthday as well as the holidays are coming up so ya.... if someone is feeling generous... i really like the red color scheme.

Dang, I'd be keeping him as a friend. What are those things? $450,000? Some of my friends work for Cessna in Independence instructing in all those planes with the G1000...did your friend go through their training?

The 206 is a wonderful and capable airplane. Take the two back seats out, and it's just about perfect!

From the 206 W&B procedures:

Load cabin. Load fuel. Add more in cabin. Check for empty space. Add more. Confirm empty space is gone. Load passengers, cram personal goods in. Check tail. If clear of ground, W&B is within acceptable limits.
