Cessna 207 Aircraft in Idaho

← Cessna 206 family

The Cessna 207 Stationair is the stretched, maximum-payload member of the Stationair line — a 300-hp Continental IO-520 single with a fuselage extended for up to seven or eight seats or an exceptional cargo load. It trades cruise speed (~135 kt) for sheer hauling capacity, which made it a favorite of bush operators and skydiving clubs. The buy case is moving people or freight cheaply; expect modest speed and inspect the nose gear and firewall on hard-worked examples.

Cessna 207 Price & Cost

Cessna 207 Price Guide

Key price factors: engine time to overhaul, year and airframe hours, avionics, damage history and logbook completeness — see the buying guide below for the full pre-purchase checklist.

Cessna 207 Cost of Ownership estimate
Fuel (14.0 GPH × $6.20, 100 hrs)$8,680/yr
Annual Fixed (hangar, insurance, annual)$22,000/yr
Variable (per hour)$160/hr
Engine Overhaul (every 1,700 hrs)$35,000
Estimates at 100 flight hours/year. Actual costs vary by usage, location and insurance.

The 207's 300-hp Continental IO-520 burns around 14 gph - moderate for a seven-to-eight-seat single. Fixed gear keeps maintenance simple, but the 207's working-aircraft background means cargo and mission wear, corrosion, and engine history are the primary cost variables. Commercial operators offset costs against payload; the airframe's utility, not economy, is its value proposition.

Buying a Used Cessna 207

Buying a Cessna 207 comes down to a focused pre-purchase checklist — here is what matters most on this model:

What to check before buying

The Cessna 207 Stationair is the stretched, seven-to-eight-seat member of the Stationair family - a fixed-gear high-wing single with a 300-hp Continental IO-520, cruising around 137 knots. A fuselage stretch over the 206 adds a row of seats and cargo volume, making it the largest single-engine Cessna utility aircraft.

Maximum single-engine capacity. The 207 trades speed for volume: it is slower than a 206 but carries more people and cargo, serving commuter, skydiving, cargo, and bush operators who need maximum single-engine payload. Its long cabin and multiple doors suit high-density and freight configurations.

Ownership focus. The 207 is a working aircraft; cargo and mission wear, corrosion, engine history, and useful-load reality (with a full cabin, weight-and-balance is tight) are the primary pre-buy items. Fixed gear keeps maintenance simple.

207 versus 206. The 206 is faster and more common; the 207 carries more but cruises slower. Choose by mission - people and cargo volume (207) versus speed and a larger used market (206).

Buy it if you need maximum single-engine seat and cargo capacity - commuter, skydive, cargo, or bush operations - and accept lower cruise speed for the extra volume.

Frequently Asked Questions — Cessna 207

About the Cessna 207 Skywagon
The Cessna 207 (later 207A Stationair 7) was produced 1969–1984, powered by the Continental IO-520-F (300 hp). It is a stretched seven-seat single-engine utility aircraft — one cabin station longer than the 206 — designed for high-density seating in short-haul commuter, charter, and bush operations. The 207 trades useful load and climb performance for headcount versus the 206.
207 vs 206 — when does the extra seat justify the aircraft?
The 207 makes sense when you consistently need seven seats in a single-engine aircraft — bush charter, short-haul commuter, or combined cargo/passenger operations in remote areas. The 206's six-seat limit is sufficient for most utility operations at better useful load per passenger. If the seventh seat is regularly occupied, the 207 is the correct aircraft; if not, the 206's better payload-per-seat makes it the smarter operational choice.
What are the 207's operational characteristics?
With seven occupants and full fuel, the 207 is weight-limited — payload management is critical. The IO-520-F is a capable engine, but the longer, heavier fuselage demands careful weight-and-balance calculation on every flight. Bush operators value the 207 for its seating capacity; for IFR cross-country, the 206 is generally the preferred aircraft.
What to inspect on a used 207?
Continental IO-520-F health — cylinders, the fuel-injection system, oil consumption, and TBO status. Fuselage and cargo-door seals and hinges (repeated load operations). Corrosion on float- or coastal-operated examples. Full logbook review including any bush or float history. A pre-buy by a Cessna utility specialist is recommended.
Is the 207 still in service?
Yes — particularly in Alaska, remote Canada, Pacific-island operations, and bush aviation globally. The 207 remains a working aircraft where seven-seat single-engine capacity is the operational requirement. Support from the Continental IO-520 network is robust; 207-specific airframe parts are sourced through established Cessna channels.
