This has to be the best thread on pprune, tell me, I have never had the chance to fly the 180/185. Are they both six people including the pilot, so the size of a 206 or more cramped. I have been thinking about operating one in the future I have plenty of tail wheel time just not on these fantastic machines.
So could you with a pod fitted take similar loads to a 206 in a 185 and what is the cruise speed generally.
Thanks
