Cessna P206 Price & Cost

How much does a Cessna P206 cost? Used P206 prices: $189K – $240K, average $195K (median $195K); market reference $180K, across 5 priced of 1 active listings.

Cessna P206 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 P206 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 1,800 hrs)$35,000
Estimates at 100 flight hours/year. Actual costs vary by usage, location and insurance.

The P206's 285-hp Continental IO-520 burns around 14 gph - moderate for a six-seat aircraft. Fixed gear eliminates hydraulic-system maintenance. Annual inspection costs are consistent with the broader 206 family. The P206's thinner market relative to the U206 Stationair means fewer P206-specialist mechanics; confirm A&P familiarity with the specific variant's engine and systems at pre-buy.

Buying a Used Cessna P206

Buying a Cessna P206 comes down to a focused pre-purchase checklist — here is what matters most on this model:

What to check before buying

The Cessna P206 Super Skylane is a six-seat, fixed-gear single powered by a 285-hp Continental IO-520, cruising around 142 knots with 840 nm range. It is the passenger-configured member of the 206 family - the "P" denotes the Super Skylane passenger version (as opposed to the U206 Utility), not pressurization and not a Powermatic engine.

Not pressurized. Despite the "P", the P206 is a normally aspirated, unpressurized utility six-seater - buyers should not confuse it with the pressurized P210 Centurion. It was built in the mid-to-late 1960s alongside the U206 as the more passenger-oriented door configuration of the Super Skywagon and Stationair line.

Six seats in a fixed-gear airframe. The P206's roughly 1,400 lb useful load with six seats and fixed gear provides genuine utility without retractable-gear maintenance. At 142 knots it is slower than retractable alternatives but needs no gear system, and its 840 nm range enables practical loaded cross-country.

P206 versus U206. The U206 (Utility/Stationair) is the better-known 206 with a larger market and parts network. Evaluate both individually; later U206G variants moved to the 300-hp IO-520, a modest performance difference over the P206's 285 hp.

Buy it if you need six-seat fixed-gear utility with 840-plus nm range and find a well-maintained P206 at appropriate value in this niche market.

What is the Cessna P206?
The P206 is a utility member of the 206 Stationair family — a six-seat high-wing single, part of the Stationair line of load-hauling utility aircraft (the P denotes a model designation rather than pressurisation).

Used P206 prices depend on engine time, floats and avionics. See the live price range and median above.
What is the Cessna P206 used for?
As a Stationair, the P206 is a utility hauler — its big cabin and high useful load make it popular for bush flying, cargo, skydiving and float operations.

Six.
Can the Cessna P206 fly on floats?
Yes — the Stationair is a popular floatplane and amphibian for utility and bush roles.
What engine does the Cessna P206 use?
A 300-horsepower-class Continental IO-520. Engine time since overhaul is a key value factor.
