C212
 
Who can tell me performance numbers and general information for the CASA C212-200? I cannot find a POH for the aircraft anywhere but I need to crunch some approx. numbers...

Fuel burn during climb and cruise at FL200? Vy and cruise/climb speed?
Single engine performance at empty and gross weight? Service ceilings?
How does it do with snow/ice?
Takeoff/Landing distances?

Thanks

unpressurized, up to 20K hahahahahahahaha. The garrett's lose power pretty quick in the climb. FF will very a lot based upon OAT. basically 500#/side to temp limit, then around 300/side at cruise at 17k, only went to 23k twice, and when nearly 3000# under gross. In Icing, with lips on you lose 5-7% torque when you dearly need it, and the garrett loves ram air. with the power set say 20degrees nlow max egt, pull the nose back about 20-30 kts you'll see the temps rise in an inverse proportion. These are observations off of the sa226/7, and ba31 but pretty much sums up the garrett experience. What are you moving, and how far?

Freight. Probably about 2500lbs at a time anywhere from 500-1000NM.

with that kind of payload/range, unless you need the bulk/rear door go with the 1900c/metro 3 the reduction in time/fuel burn will make it up pretty quick. WRT wat limits, the beech will eat the metro due to reduction of power at higher DA's. PM me if I can help.

I really want to use the B1900 but I don't know at this time if I can get an STC to move the aft cargo door. The rear fold-down cargo hatch on the 212 is ideal for what I need, and the operating costs fall within my budget, but finding a good one for sale has turned out to be quite the chore.
