Should of mentioned I have been flying a U206G, I am just asking cause when I head north maybe I should fly the 210 before I start knocking on doors?

If you can fly one you can fly the other.
Agreed.
Folding wheels makes the transition a little more nuanced from the 206.

You will want to
- be very disciplined about handling the gear, don’t rush
- know the system really well
- be all over the correct turbulence penetration technique.
I had bunch of recent 180/185, 206 and BN2 time when I finally got to fly a 210. Retractable undercarriage was not part of my world then, and I had nightmares about those fold away 210 wheels until I reestablished necessesary habits.
You’ll need a smoother surface and more runway up North in a 210 than down South in a 206.
This old bus was great for flogging around the West coast of Tassie and islands 40+ years ago. It had a Robertson STOL kit and a cool proprietary engine mod: Engine Auto Rough, which kicked in whenever flying over water.
