Cessna P210 and 210 training
The 210 family covers three different flying jobs: the normally aspirated Centurion, the turbocharged T210 and the pressurized P210. It is a retractable high-performance single that underwriters often treat more seriously than its one engine suggests, and the P210's published altitude limits are a useful example of how the high-altitude rule works.

Cessna 210 Centurion training questions
How much does Cessna 210 Centurion training cost?
Cessna 210 Centurion initial training is $3,050 and recurrent is $1,800, delivered in your own aircraft at your airport or at ours. Tuition is the same in both places. Travel expenses are added when we come to you, and your aircraft's fuel and operating cost during the flight hours is yours.
Do I need a type rating for the Cessna 210 Centurion?
No. The 210 family is well under 12,500 lb.
Does the Cessna 210 Centurion need a high altitude endorsement?
Not on the data sheet limits. The FAA data sheet shows 23,000 feet for early P210N airplanes and 25,000 feet for the P210R, and 14 CFR 61.31(g) applies above 25,000 feet. Check your AFM for your serial number. Oxygen and pressurization training still matter, and the FAA highly recommends high-altitude training above 10,000 feet.
Will my underwriter accept Cessna 210 Centurion training in my own aircraft?
That is your underwriter's decision, for your experience and limits. Ask your broker first. We can send the aircraft-specific syllabus and CFII credentials to help them decide.
My P210 insurer suddenly added an annual training requirement. What satisfies it?
Whatever the words in your policy say. Ask your broker whether a course by a CFII in your own airplane qualifies, and get the answer in writing.
I cannot find anyone near my home field who will train me in my P210. Who travels?
Our instructors go anywhere in the United States and Alaska. Tell us your airport and we will confirm availability and quote the travel expenses.
