Great video, Shamir! I fly a T206H with the New Mexico Civil Air Patrol. A couple of the challenges for us are high terrain and high density altitudes during the warmer parts of the year. Managing cylinder head temperatures is important, and our goal is to keep them at or below 400ºF. Summertime has us keeping the cowl flaps at least partially open and adding 1 gallon per hour or more to get this done in climb and cruise; the only time they're closed is on descent for landing to avoid shock cooling. Landing the airplane is interesting, especially with a tailwind. I'm based at KABQ and it's the only Class C airport in the state with regular commercial airline traffic. ATC is either managing East or West flow, and until the tailwind speed exceeds 9kts, they usually don't switch runways. I just love the airplane!
the last song i thought was the engine. i was like uhh whats that?? hahaa love your vids man! im finishing my commercial in the next few months looking to fly the pc12 !
Hey Captain, Steve here from Columbus, ohio - just saw your post and thought that I'd wish you some good luck on getting your Commercial soon - I'm just now getting geared up to go get My PPL - and yes,,, I'm very excited about it - and just to let you know one more thing........I am in love with The Pilatus PC 12 NGX - such a gorgeous airplane - oh - and what power it hhas with it's Turboprop.

What a great video. it's been a long time since I have been in Puerto Rico .... my family is out of Aguadilla ... I haven't flown a turbo... I fly 172 and archers, I have been looking to possibly buy a 206 but right now I belong to a flying club. Thanks for sharing your video !!!
Hallooo Sir looks like a nice Airplane and u seems to be a Good person so i wanna wish U the Best of luck on all your trips!! Beautifull places and a nice plane U can't have it any better!! U R a lucky man!!!
Hey brother love the video. I have a private with a single engine commercial license. What are the requirements over there to get a job like yours, and are they any company that are looking for pilots. Thanks
Saludos Shamir soy Piloto Privado y estoy obsesionado con Volar aqui en PR y las islas, yo volaba el Pitufo Grumman AA-1 N5653L que estaba ahi en la rampa y lo vendieron hace como un año, no conozco mucha gente en la aviacion aqui en PR llevo como dos años que me mude de Miami, pero la idea que tengo para el futuro incluye necesitar un C206 asi que me gustaria hablar contigo o con el dueño del avion a ver si hacemos un Partnership y ponemos ese 206 a printear dolares ... Saludos y gracias ... Tremendo Video ... seria bueno un videito del Approach a Culebra ...
What are the dark patches in the ocean? Is it kelp? So the turbo has a manual waste gate? Is it a spring controlled valve or is it on the exhaust side?
Beautiful airplane and great job on the video BUT this thing is a gas hog. The fuel burn on these is actually over 30 GPH on climb. Time for lead burning lycomings to be replaced with diesel in my opinion. 30% more efficient and no toxic lead going into our environment.
Your videos are getting nice and the views of the Caribbean are awesome, keep the content coming...
Thanks buddy! Wilco!

Saludos Shamir. Preciosas vistas.Welcome back.
Gracias Eduardo!
Me encanto tu video 'mano, manténgase y sigue volando! Pa'lante
Gracias bro!
So many memories of Isla Grande!
you are making me want to go back.. I've enjoyed my trip each time. Next time I'll have to hire you to do this ... awesome :) Damn this COVID.
I dream of having a flight school in the DR! Thanks for showing that GA is very much alive in the carribean
Shamir tremendo felicidades, voy para la isla pronto me gustaría volar un poco por allá.
Hola!!!! Gracias, me alegro que te haya gustado!!
Esa vista de Culebra y Luquillo es espectacular.
Gracias, el dia estaba impresionante para volar.
Had the C210 version.. :-) 200 series Cessna's are great planes to fly, especially if you are taller!!!
I've always wanted to fly a 210! Specially the Pressurized version!
Hallooo Sir looks like a nice Airplane and u seems to be a Good person so i wanna wish U the Best of luck on all your trips!! Beautifull places and a nice plane U can't have it any better!! U R a lucky man!!!
Thank you Mark!!!!! I really appreciate it!
Hermoso Puerto Rico !
I did exactly the same flight a few years ago with a brand new C172 G1000 equipped ;-)
Thats a great setup to fly! I haven't flown one in a long time and wish to fly one soon!
Nice job Captain.
Thank you sir!
Nice job! And great views! I was under the impression that the T206 has automatic wastegates so the engine can’t be overboosted. Am I misinformed ?
Hi Ervin, I'm not 100% sure. I'll double check next time I have the POH handy and let you know.

Great looking Aircraft
Great video. Keep’m coming!
I enjoyed this flight.
Thank you Shamir 😉
I did some aerial survey using a C210T for a while
NICE! I've always wanted to fly a 210!
@@fersobe It wasn't that great. They are old and full of problems. But they do have a high useful load and are pretty fast for a piston.
What are the dark patches in the ocean? Is it kelp?
So the turbo has a manual waste gate? Is it a spring controlled valve or is it on the exhaust side?
Might be shadows from the clouds.
On the turbo, you got me on that question. I'll have to find out!
I have a lot of hours in a 206 with the IO-450 but unfortunately if had the opportunity to flying the Turbo G1000 206 model please contact me 'm
Excelente, me encantan esos videos.
I didn't know this transition in San Juan, usually I proceed Tango Transition
Yeah, Tango is mostly used... Low Offshore is used mostly by locals!
Awesome! Which fuel does it use?

Nice Video THanks
Glad you liked it
Costo airplane, please ,salute
210s are nice, but I prefer the 206.
I haven't flown a 210 yet... hopefully soon! its one of my bucket list planes to fly!
