'SE Turbo-prop'

I have been flying a O&N Aircraft conversion of the Cessna P210 for a couple of years in UK. They call it a Silver Eagle(On FAA register to enable owners to use FAA IR)
Continental 315hp piston engine replaced with RR/Allison 250-B17 of 450hp. Complete refurbish includes Chelton Synthetic Vision EFIS with TCAS, EGPWS, S-Tec 55 A/P and radar pod on wing. Full de-ice.(Latest conversions now Garmin 900 avionics fit)
200kts TAS at FL190, 24 gph,cabin at 8000ft.
A great all round aircraft which can use 600 mt grass strip with ease at mauw.
As usual with these SE turbo prop aircraft , only 2/3 pax with full fuel but 3 1/2 hours with 4 people.
Only problem you need $750/850 thou to buy a new conversion!
O&N have a Cessna 340 turbo prop conversion with same engine in Certification at the moment.
