DRACO AVIATION - 1979 CESSNA P210N CENTURION "JAVELIN"

Welcome again for a new aircraft modification video and this time we take a go at a JAVELIN modified Cessna P210N Pressurized Centurion.

VERDICT:
- PAINT: KEEP AS IS
- INTERIOR: TOTAL MAKEOVER
- INSTRUMENT PANEL: TOTAL REVAMP and GARMINIZATION is needed. Bring it into GLASS COCKPIT with all the whistles and bells available from GARMIN to date.

This aircrafr has the JAVELIN LYCOMING TIO540 ENGINE sporting a 4 Blade Q-Tip Hartzell propeller and offering a whopping 350Horsepower. This gives much increased climb performance and a 15knots extra in cruise but it is not exactly economic on fuel. It is like a Muscle Car with wings. Or a bit of a fuel guzzler as they call in it in America.

As far as aerodynamical improvements, a HORTON STOL kit was installed that consists in extended and drooped leading edges, stall fences, Flap and Aileron Gap Seals.
Contrary to the Robertson STOL (R/STOL), it does not have the neat AILERON DROOP system.

It has FLINT AERO TIP TANKS increasing the fuel capacity with 34 US Gallon.

The aircraft will be lightened up by removing all STEAM GAUGES and getting rid of the VACCUUM PUMP system.

YES! It is time to get this aircraft an all GLASS COCKPIT makeover and a new interior as well as a WHELEN AEROSPACE LED (ORION & PARMETHEUS) EXTERIOR LIGHT package.

Also a very important ADD-ON will be a WEATHER RADAR system, ACTIVE TRAFFIC, TERRAIN AWARENESS SYSTEM, UNDERSPEED, OVERSPEED and ENHANCED STABILITY PROTECTIONS and a very capable precise AUTOPILOT SYSTEM.
