Cessna T210F in excellent condition. 4700 TTAF. 1120 SMOH. Extensive annuals last three years. All AD’s complied with. Full IFR. Complete panel rebuild in July, 2020.

Useful load 1205 lbs, long range fuel tanks. The airframe flies straight, the engine is strong and tight and the airplane is comfortable and very capable. A true traveling aircraft.

Full details and pictures in that “yellow” venue. I type too slowly to repeat everything everywhere. Price reduced, now $175,000 usd.

Cash, no trades. No dealers or brokers or people looking for endless pictures, please.

Found it in yellow.
Looks like a nice bird, seems like someone will get a good deal. I wish I could afford to fly that plane.
 
Its a really nice looking plane but I think it would be a race to see who could drain my wallet first. The insurance on a retract or the fuel from the Turbo. Love the useful load though.
 
Damn nice deal

Insurance is about $3200/yr. With the JPI and GAMI, you can run at 55% - 60% power in LOP and you’ll be nowhere close to any engine temperature limits at about 12 gph or less. Still faster than a 182, still more room, still more comfortable, still higher useful load.
 
What do you mean when you say the engine is “tight”? Is that just a synonym for good or does it describe something specific about the engine?
 
Usually means the compressions are fairly high. I would just say "Good Compressions" or list the numbers. My buddy has the same Turbo 210, he loves it. It has been a maintenance hog, but he just keeps putting money into it and it is his second mistress. We fly it all over the country, pretty fast, TAS is close to 200 MPH.

The compressions are fairly high. Annual Mx logs are attached on that yellow venue.

I’m sorry your buddy bought a maintenance hog. Many airplanes are if they haven’t been properly cared for over the years. It sounds like he’s been fixing things over time; I chose to do it all in my first two annuals. Now, everything works. Well. My loss will be someone’s gain.

I’m still on wife number one. She hasn’t thrown me out yet. 43 years.

But it’s still early.

I’m selling because I no longer need a comfortable airplane that flies as high, as fast, or carries as much as this one. I bought it to fly to/from CVG to visit my 90 year old father. He lives here in Maine, now.

It did the job well. Now it’s time to turn the page.

I think I’ll buy an ultralight and terrorize the local bovines. Or the cows.

I absolutely love the simple layout of the panel. Flew a 210m for about 40 hours and loved it a very useful ifr traveling machine. Beautiful plane

Thank you.
 
I seconded the comment about the panel above. So nice to see a clean well cut well done panel. So many people hodgepodge the crap out of it and it looks awful even after sinking $100K into it

If a thing is worth doing, it’s worth doing right. So my Father taught me .

Haha. I wish I could get this to finish a ppl. I doubt insurance will insure this without a IR - though complex and IR shouldn’t necessarily be tied together lol
