Buying a C206 Cargo pod
Hi all,
Anyone knows from where a Cessna 206 Cargo pod can be bought with certification please?
I know about Aerocet but I would like to know of other sellers if possible, even second hand sellers. I am finding it very difficult to find one.
Thanks.

Those that operated in the Highlands of PNG in the early 10970s will be aware that a Cessna 185 pod carries at least one additional passenger (out of Minj).
And one I remember out of Daugo to POM late one Sunday afternoon in around 1965/6!!
My recollection is that 185's were quite a bit faster without the pod - maybe 5-8 kts.
Also, with the pods fitted - both types need,(?) the cowl flap actuating rods extended which creates drag. Seem to remember this mod being done in PNG - whether it was 'approved' or not is anyones' guess.
happy days,
