About the U206

The Textron Aviation U206 is a single-engine, fixed-landing-gear fixed-wing aircraft featuring a high-wing configuration. Suited for both commercial service and personal transportation, the type offers a spacious cabin layout, a powerful powerplant, and rugged construction that appeals to operators needing utility transport.

Developing out of a popular retractable-gear predecessor created by the Cessna Aircraft Company, this aircraft family has found widespread application as a bush plane, as well as in aerial photography and skydiving operations. Operators can adapt the airframe with floats, skis, or luxury cabin furnishings depending on the mission profile. Continuous manufacturing over several decades has yielded thousands of airframes.
