Cessna Grand Caravan 208B
Cessna Grand Caravan 208B is a Turboprop Engine Aircraft manufactured by Cessna, with 9 seats and used for flights up to 2,5 hours with a range of 980 km.
An improved version of the Cessna 208, the Grand Caravan 208B has undergone many changes over the years in its design, interior, avionics and engine. Technically built on the foundations of the Cessna 208A Cargomaster, the Grand Caravan 208B is a very popular model in both cargo and passenger versions.
Equipped with a Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-114A engine and a fixed three-wheel landing gear, this aircraft, also known as the 208B Caravan, is used to carry both cargo and passengers on short distance regional flights. With a cabin height of 1.37 m and a cabin width of 1.60 m, the 208B is 1.20 m longer than the Cessna 208 Caravan. Changes to the interior design make it easy to switch between cargo or passenger configurations.
Cessna Grand Caravan 208B, which can carry up to 9 passengers and approximately 6-7 pieces of luggage in its normal passenger arrangement, can reach a maximum speed of 340 km per hour. With the changes that can be made in the design of the aircraft, it is possible to see many 208s in different variations such as cargo, passenger, air sports (parachute, etc.).
Cargomaster and Super Cargomaster, which are the cargo versions, were designed for Federal Express (FedEx) and have been in service for many years with hundreds of 208 models.
