1999 Straight Float Cessna 208

This FAA Part 135 Certified Cessna 208 isn’t just another Caravan—it’s a rare, high-capability machine built to outperform. It carries the BlackHawk XP140 engine upgrade, delivering the kind of thrust that changes everything: stronger climb, faster cruise, better efficiency, and a level of confidence no stock Caravan can match.

The aircraft holds the 8,360 lb Gross Weight STC, and that increased gross weight applies to every configuration: amphibious floats, straight floats, and landplane wheel gear. Whatever setup you operate, you keep the full payload benefit.

It’s fully de-ice certified for dependable, all-season operation, and it includes nearly new landplane wheel gear for operators who demand flexible mission changes.

The float system is a standout feature. The aircraft is equipped with Wipline 8000 amphibious floats, true amphibs, with a unique Wipaire design. These floats can be converted to straight-float configuration by removing the amphibious components using a Wipaire engineering kit, and they can be converted back to full amphibious mode at any time. The floats currently installed are simply being operated in the straight-float configuration, but they remain amphibious floats with fully reversible capability. This flexibility is exceptionally hard to find in the market.

A rare cargo pod is included as well, opening up more space, more mission profiles, and more revenue options.

This isn’t just a working aircraft; it’s a go-anywhere, do-everything platform built for operators who want the upper hand. More power, more payload, more versatility. It stands among the most capable Caravans today.
