The Cessna 206 and 207, are a family of single engine, general aviation aircraft with fixed landing gear used in commercial air service and also for personal use. The line's combination of a powerful engine, rugged construction and a large cabin has made these aircraft popular bush planes. Cessna describes the 206 as "the sport-utility vehicle of the air." These airplanes are also used for aerial photography, skydiving and other utility purposes.
Cessna 207
The Model 207 was a seven and later eight seat development of the 206, achieved by stretching the design further to allow space for more seats. The nose section was extended 18" by adding a constant-section nose baggage compartment between the passenger compartment and the engine firewall; the aft section was extended by 44"
The 207 was introduced featuring a Continental IO-520-F engine of 300 hp. A total of 626 Cessna 207s were manufactured. The Cessna Model 207 has been popular with air taxi companies, particularly on short runs where its full seating capacity could be used. Except from Wikipedia
