206 wing difference

I know the differences from the 205's and about the horizontal. Wondering if the wings or elevators changed from earl to later models? Have heard the later models handled better, as in roll rate? Trying to help a friend buy one and he's wondering if it's worth the extra money over an earlier model. Not working it. Not crazy short strips. But some of everything. Mostly heavy loads and hot temps. And if anyone knows of any for sale....that'd be great to. He's ready to pull the trigger. Brokers are frustrating us to death. Thanks!

Re: 206 wing difference

The Cessna Cuffed leading edge started with the F model 206s. The Cessna Cuff wing improved the stall feeling but I didnt notice any difference in roll rates. Either one you get should get the Sportsman for heavy operations. It will improve cruise speeds heavy and high alt.
