Cessna 205 Series for Sale — The Six-Seat Skylane
The Cessna 205 represents a brief but important chapter in Cessna's development of its high-wing six-seat utility aircraft — produced for only three years (1962–1964) before being superseded by the more versatile Cessna 206, the 205 provided valuable proof of concept for the six-seat high-wing Cessna formula that would become the backbone of utility aviation worldwide. Powered by the Continental IO-470-S at 260 horsepower, the 205 offered six-seat capacity in the proven Cessna high-wing configuration with retractable gear, making it a practical personal and charter aircraft in the mold of the successful 182.
