1960 CESSNA 210, 2541 TT SNEW!, 540 SMOH 260H.P. IO-470, VIRTUALLY NO AF DAMAGE!!
THE EARLY 210 IS REALLY JUST A RETRACTABLE GEAR VERSION OF THE 182, WITH EXTRA HORSEPOWER FROM A 260 H.P. FUEL INJECTED VERSION OF THE 182’S 230 H.P. ENGINE.
THE EXTRA POWER AND THE RETRACTABLE LANDING GEAR, AS INTENDED, MADE THE AIRPLANE FASTER, MUCH MORE SUITED TO CROSS-COUNTRY TRAVEL.
THE SWEPT VERICAL FIN WAS INSTALLED ON THE 210 FROM THE START, THEN EXPANDED TO THE REST OF THE LINE OVER THE 1970’S.
THIS IS A VERY LOW TOTAL TIME AIRPLANE!!
AS WE HAVE THE LOGBOOKS FROM THE VERY BEGINNIBG (MAY 1960), WE CAN CONFIRM THAT THIS AIRCRAFT HAS ONLY 2,541 HOURS ON THE AIRFRAME SINCE BRAND NEW!!!
WE DID NOT FIND AN ENTRY FOR A REPAINT, AND THE DARK BROWN PAINT, WHILE INTACT HAS OBVIOUSLY HAD A FEW TOUCH-UPS, AND MAY BE ORIGINAL !!
IT APPEARS THAT THE OWNER WAS IN THE PROCESS OF STRIPPING THE AIRPLANE, AND MAY HAVE INTENDED TO GO WITH A POLISHED AIRFRAM, AS ONE WING AND THE HORIZONTAL TAIL ARE CURRENTLY STRIPPED AND POLISHED, BUT THE REST ARE NOT.
INSIDE THE TAN CLOTH INTERIOR LOOKS GOOD AND HAS OBVIOUSLY BEEN UPDATED.
THE DASH LAYOUT LOOKS GOOD, THE YOKES ARE GOOD, AND THE 210 HAD CENTER STACK AVIONICS FROM THE START.
THE TRAYS ARE INSTALLED FOR A TERRA DIGITAL STACK, BUT THE PANEL UNITS AND INDICATORS ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS SALE.
THE IO-470E, 260 H.P. ENGINE HAS ONLY 540 HOURS SINCE OVERHAUL.
COMPRESSIONS AT THE LAST ANNUAL (3/2018) WERE GREAT AT 78/70/76/78/76/78 OVER 80 !!!
THIS NICE AIRPLANE HAD A LITTLE TROUBLE WHILE TAXIING OVER THE WASH RACK GRATE (I HAVE HAD SEVERAL RETRACT PLANES DO THIS. SOMETHING ABOUT THE PUSH-PULL/UP-DOWN MOVEMENT UNLOCKS THE LOCK). THE NOSE GEAR SLOWLY SAGGED DOWN, WITH THE HYDRAULIC ACTUATOR ACTING AS A SHOCK ABSORBER.
THE PROP, WHICH WAS AT LOW IDLE, UNFORTUNATELY HIT, SO THE ENGINE WILL REQUIRE AN INSPECTION, BUT OF COURSE NOT A MAJOR OVERHAUL, AS IT HAS JUST OVER 500 HOURS SINCE MAJOR ON IT!!
THE HARTZELL PROP HAS ONLY 356 SINCE NEW, BUT BOTH OF THE BLADES WILL REQUIRE REPLACEMENT.
THE ONLY DAMAGE TO THIS ENTIRE AIRFRAME ARE SMALL, SHALLOW DENTS TO BOTH FORWARD NOSE DOORS, AND A SMALL CUT ON THE OPENING OF THE RIGHT ONE.
THAT’S IT!!
NO FUSELAGE DAMAGE, NO WRINKLING OF THE GEAR WELL OR FIREWALL!!
NO ENGINE MOUNT DEFORMATION, NO DAMAGE TO THE COWL FLAPS OR EXHAUST.
NO DAMAGE TO THE FUSELAGE, MAIN GEAR OR MOUNTS.
CLEVELAND WHEELS AND BRAKES HAVE BEEN ADDED.
ADC FULL FLOW REMOTE OIL FILTER HAS BEEN ADDED.
THE MAGS WERE JUST OVERHAULED AT THE 3/2018 ANNUAL.
THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE WINGS, TIPS, SURFACES OR STRUTS
NO DAMAGE TO THE TAIL OR TAIL FEATHERS.
THE PROP AND THE ENGINE INSPECTION ARE ALL THAT SEPARATE YOU FROM WHAT IS REALLY A “SUPER 182RG”
IT IS ALL THE RAGE TO ADD 260 H.P. ENGINES TO THE 182.
BUY THIS AIRPLANE FOR LESS THAN A 182, AND HAVE A FASTER CROSS-COUNTRY AIRPLANE TO BOOT !!
