Question 206 or 210 time

Hey people, this is my first thread. I was hoping someone could tell me where I could hire a 206 or 210 to get some time on type? Im in the process of building command for my cpl and would like to have some time in a 200 series.

Many Thanks

C206 for hire at Bankstown

Presumably you want to hire in Sydney, not in Mexico.
Alpha Flying Group Bankstown has an IFR/Garmin530 C206 but you would have to buy a share in the group ($2500). Flight Captain is Ray Woods 0402 454 261.

i presume you want to fly one to get some exp for a charter gig up North?

Dont even worry mate, some of the fellas and sheilas getting checked up there in the past few years had never even heard of one, especially the kiwis who did their CPL in a C150

If you want to fly something similar, a C182RG is always a good base to work up to a 210, but flying any retrac CSU combo will hold you in good stead for a 210, after all they are a very forgiving nice well balanced easy aeroplane to fly, once you learn how to slow it down

Spend that money you save on a decent GPS and save the rest for petrol, or a bunky car when you get there.

Good Luck

C210

There is a guy at Wedderburn who will do an endorsement and rent a C210 . Mate of mine did this very recently.

Details were in Private Flying forum some time ago - I think it is the same guy.
