Cessna 206 door improvements

Post by twotter »

Not sure how many of you have seen this but we have fixed the 206 door issue for opening it when the flaps are down.

Let me know if you'd like more information on the kit or install.

That's a tremendous design improvement. That original door always made me nervous and unfortunately the accident reports backed that up.
This would be a no-brainer for any 206 owner, floats or otherwise.

What an awesome mod :prayer:

Personally I have always refused to sit in any of the back seats of the crowd killer. I hope it is widely adopted.

Well done. Not sure how the original design was ever considered acceptable.

I don’t think six people qualify as a “crowd”. :wink:

I'm not sure what's more depressing: That everyone has a price, or how low the price always is.
