Premier 1 Driver love the professionalism. Must be a Guard guy! I agree, they make this kind of career seem pretty awesome and accessible when before I never knew about it.
I'm not currently in the market nor do I see myself ever being in the market of purchasing an airplane but you two are great at what you do. Continued success!
I learned how to fly in a C172, this plane is amazing. I love the fact regarding the useful load, as we all know the 172 cant have 4 full adults. Great video, thank you so much for sharing !
Love how every new plane has an EFIS display. Many many years ago when I was flying an old King Air I was having a look at a near new Saab 340 flight deck with its “amazing” glass cockpit. The FO of the Saab said to me that this new technology would be beyond most pilots. Wank on. I use to have an old friend that flew the original DC8. He would navigate on oceanic routes with a periscopic sextant. These days you down load a flight plan into the FMS and press TOGA with a few minor steps in between.
Sky Flyer . Heard about it but never used it. Switched off in the 80s I think. I guess one day people will be saying this about GPS. As techniques are being developed to screw with GPS the military must be looking at other methods to direct their missiles.
Just caught you two. Love the 206, it is a Wagneer. 4 ppl and basically all the luggage you want. Very good speed and the high wing allows the best sight-seeing. It is my favorite piston powered turbo.
New/luxury items cost $$$. I see these same comments with new RVs all the time. People still thinking of prices in the 1960s for old tech. Nope. You gotta pay to play. Inflation, materials, tech, labour, warranty, etc, it ain't your grandpappy's Cessna.
@@OMGWTFLOLSMH The sad thing is that it ABOLUTELY IS your grandpappy's Cessna, just with a glass cockpit. Not much really new to the industry here. Aluminum construction, design dating back to the mid 60s, same fuel injection system as used back then, same engines etc etc...
Very thorough and well done ladies! I am currently training to become a pilot in a Cessna 172, and I completed my first solo flight on February 21st, 2020. In addition, I will be getting my private pilot license the late summer/early fall!
I cant thank you enough for demostrating the oxygen system. Just returned to aviation and was curious as to how this system worked. Great video, love the 206. Cheers.
Great demo of this "hauler" and its capability. One suggestion.....after landing wait on the flap retraction, it is easy to grab the gear handle instead of the flaps !!
I'm flying south from the Grand Canyon at K FT. The Skyhawk started a very slow climb . It was winter and the sky was clear . as we passed through 12K FT . everything was perfect . I watched for icing , nothing . As we passed through 14 K FT. I'm talking and nobody was answering they were all knocked out . I was fine but started my decent , at around 9 K FT. they came too . It was a good flight from Mesa to the canyon and back .
You need to take a magic marker and draw a mustache on the O2 mask. It would be cute. I'm 80 years old and have not flown for years. We used to look at the old Stationair as a "flying station wagon". Best regards, Dennis Miller Anthem, AZ
I think you're going to find its significantly more than than that to get a low time 2017+ with the G1000NXI. You can probably get a nice 2006+ with the G1000 and WAAS for around that number.
I must say Mindy, I would buy a plane from you any day of the week, and I don’t even have a pilot’s license. You know your stuff and you are a great sales person.
Love these videos!!!! Been following you guys on Instagram for awhile now but really love all the explaining you do on RU-vid! Really enjoying the channel!
That is a gorgeous bird! I want one! ;-) Thanks for sharing ladies (Sarah and Mindy). That was a smooth landing, Mindy. BTW, both of you look marvelous wearing your canulas. ;-)
Great vídeo, Captains! Thank you very much! I had a good laugh watching both of you with your Sam Elliott's disguise and I was impressed with the simplicity of the O2 system. Quick question: is it hard to migrate from a high wing plane to a low wing?
Turbo does not make the engine think it's at sea level all the time. It has a efficiency range before either starts to loose. It is NOT a turbo normalizer
Great demo flight ladies!. Thank you for sharing info on Cessna 206. Love the Garmin avionics and auto pilot. I have owned C-172, flown C-182, C-205, and even C-207 in Alaska. Great planes, good useful load. Thanks Cessna. John @ X49
...enjoying your videos..in these all way too interesting times..and especially enjoying those hilarious Pancho and the Cisco Kid O2 mustachios...thanks again...
Thanks to you Mindy and Sara for the demo of the 206. Comparing it to the in person demo you gave me in 2015 at Airventure, there were only a few more tips and points that i learned from your Video. Glad you made this and tag teamed the info. N224CS would have been a real good choice for us. Sorry we won’t see you at #OSH20
When flying with O2 do you need to periodically check your blood oxygen? In case the gas flow isn’t sufficient or you forget not to mouth breathe? Great video.
F-18 with two General Electric F404-GE-402 afterburning turbofan engines climb at 50,000 fpm. And pressurized cabin. Are we just naming random planes stats here? :D
Nice presentation, I love this plane. I don't understand that Cessna hasn't redesigned the 206 with a retractable gear, more speed, and a little more range.... and of course a right front door. It would be the perfect plane. Thanks Mindy & Sarah for the fantastic presentation.
Well, I do agree that faster and sleeker would be nice. However, unfortunately with how insurance companies are these days, I am definitely an advocate for fixed gear aircraft. Insurance is significantly lower. And i mean....significantly.
hello Mindy and Sarah. Congratulations and thank you very much for the great presentation of the Cessna 206. You clarified all my doubts and now I am going to buy a used one here in Brazil. My name is Hamilton and I live in Fortaleza, state of Ceará.
nice video! I'm just asking, for such a nice plane, 20usg/h for 160ktas is nice, but previous CT210 was achieving 180 for roughly 11~12usg per hour at this altitude (by the number), isn't it? we are a bit short of useflull load, but that's quite a difference. The real gain here is for very rough terrain where the good old 210 gear is a bit too thin to resist such a treatment on the long time. But still it make a huge difference.
Awesome airplane. Although I think that would I have the money and licenses to make a choice I would prefer the speed of the Bonanza over the payload of the Stationair. Curious about that visual guidance feature. Does it also provide terrain clearance or is it just a standard angle and distance from each runway without taking terrain into account?
It's literally just guidance - no terrain or obstacle clearance. Simply an extended runway centerline and a 3 degree glide path for visual guidance only. Bonanza speeds are hard to compete with! One of my favs :)
Love the concept of the cargo pod, however, what prevents the 300 lbs. of cargo from shifting the C.G. during the flare? Also, what's the fuel burn at 5-8,000 ft., 75% power? Just trying to figure out range.
20USGPH and 75dF ROP is rather savage on the engine, And I just checked the Turbo 206 POH where does it say no LOP ops? Even if it did, about 40-50dF LOP would be appropriate around 30" / 2400 RPM. If you would like some tuition on power plant management please get in touch with me.
@@Schmiiindy Where does it say no LOP........c'mon, lets be serious. The science does not care whether I buy or you do. Lets stick to science that is no full of BS. Mindy, I am here to help you. Not fight with you. But be careful about your company BS that is one minute promoting one thing that is factually correct, yet in another video factually corrupt. The laws of physics support the scientific, an the Cessna 206 video is BS compared to the Beech video. I have no axe to grind but I can assure you I am 100% factually correct. It is now up to you to be scientifically honest. Like I said, I will happily help you, but please do not try to hind behind company BS. Thousands of better educated people will call you out and it will cost you sales. Your friend (attempted), David Brown.
I thought so!! Congrats on your Sales / Demo position. Subscribe to us on You Tube as: Twin Pilots 19 to check out our flying adventures. I'll be watching you guys, fly safe.
