Hello,

Im trying to find out the max range of a new 206 H non turbo with amfibian floats. Its a late Oct 2009 model with 100 hour hours on it.

Trying to ferry it to Cambodia has become a pain in the butt.
To by pass airport with no AV gas put it at almost 800nm.

If I can find out the max range with out extra tanks and max range with ferry tank. What is the max safe weight we can carry.

I been told 12.5gph @ 9000 and 17gph at 125kts at un known hight.
Also see at FL 160 110 kts 6.3 hour w/45 min reseives @ 12.5 gph

We dont have O2 so we not going up that high.

We are comming from OMRK to VDPP

Any help or what numbers to use? This is a ferrry flight so we are planning to push this to the max limit of range and weight or more.
What can be done not what the POH may say?

Will the non turbo run on car Gas ?
Thanks

Yup, working.

Have a read of the Type Certificate Data Sheet (A4CE) for the 206. At the end, there is Note 5, which discusses overweight ferry. It directs you to other relevent documents for reference. It seems to be silient on landing gear configuration, but that could be to your advantage.

for your convenience, the TCDS can be found here:

Thanks,

That will work . All we may need it for it to go 532nm on the longest leg .
Just need to find out the GPH we can get out of it.


Thank you for that link.
