Actually, any time there's a transition to a 6 place from a 4 place, there should be some checkout time devoted to flights, especially multiple landings and stalls, at near gross weights at both ends of the CG envelope. You will be surprised at how different a 206 (or any other 6 place) handles under those circumstances, and you don't want to be surprised when you have a load of stuff and passengers! It's a real mistake to just fly off the hours with the CFI in the right seat and nothing in the back.

Youd think going from a 2 to a 4 place would be a similar change. A C180 and a 7GCBC are a lot more different then a C182 and C206 are.
