Re: Cessna 180 vs Cessna 206

Matt, just to give you an idea of the baggage door size on the P206. It is about 20"x30". The main cabin door is about 35"x39". I find it fairly good for getting in and out of as well as loading anything I've had to put in the plane yet. Image

Fantastic, the kids will get in and out of there no problem. Great looking bird. Thanks David.

Yes. That picture says it all. I had no idea the rear door was so large. Is there a latch handle on the inside, or is it like some baggage doors that have only an outside handle?

It could be bought, but I have a 185 I’m very happy with. It has front doors on both sides. :D
