Amphib 206's have never been good lifters but the H has even less useful load. Engine is heavier, interior is significantly heavier. They up gross the weight when it's on floats by 85kgs but still suffers. Funny thing is though it will actually lift the same as the old U models as the old ones may have been able to legally take more load but could not physically get themselves out of the waster at max gross. Just ask the doctor in Cairns.
