History
The P206 was added to the line in 1965. In this case the “P” stood for “passenger”, as the P206 had passenger doors similar to the Cessna 210 from which it was derived, on both sides. The P206 had the same door arrangement as the 205, but with the bigger engine from the 206.
The P206 was produced from 1965 to 1970 and was powered by a Continental IO-520-A of 285 hp (213 kW). There was a turbocharged model designated TP206 which was powered by a Continental TSIO-520-A also of 285 hp.
Design and development
Turbocharging became available on both variants in 1966, with a 285-HP Continental TSIO- 520C.
