Description

Excellent NEW Condition - Flown last 30 Years in Utah for Air Tours at Moab Arches & Canyonlands National Park Dry Desert - No Corrosion Cessna Airframe Good Until 40,000 hours Complete Logbooks, no history of damage, rigged to specs, service ceiling 26,000 ft. Often considered to be Cessna's stretch limo. Very stable IFR platform. More rugge have d than a 206 withe stronger struts and stronger wings, I have never heard of a 207 in-flight breakup. It has a wider undercarriage than a 206. Two front doors instead of one. You can open the rear doors with flaps down in forced water landings (a 206 cannot). It is quieter than a 206 because a luggage compartment separates the cockpit from the engine. It's engine is more efficient than a new 206 with a Lycoming and can cruise 154 knots (177 MPH) at 76% power sipping 16.5 gph at 18,000 feet standard temperature per Cessna's manualcertified to this aircraft. 206's can cost a million dollars today and in my opinion this is a better aircraft. If 207's were made today, a new one might cost a million and a half!
