Any 210 Pilots? T210 and/or P210, Advice Needed...

[jwp_145]

So I have a girl student who's fiance is a large Cessna 210 dealer, all models, straight 210s, P210s and T210s. His current pilot is unreliable so he is going to start using me to deliver the aircraft he buys and sells.

I have some 210 time from a T210, but it has been a while and I'm very rusty in the type.

Could any 210 pilots please send me a PM? I have a few technique questions that I'd like to run by you and it would be a tremendous help to me. Thanks in advance.

Just fly it like a heavy 182, Cessna's are Cessna's.

Except 210s don't glide worth a damn. Keep that in mind.

Make sure the nose is into the wind before you open the door, do not park it where the FBO guys says , park at where you want or you may lose a door!anic:

It will fly surprisingly well at full flaps and 1.3 Vso

If you don't have a choice, then make sure the doors are closed.
