Do yourself a favour, and go and have a look at a REAL 210's ailerons (1967 and up) and look at their size compared to a 172, 182 or 206 and you will note they are LARGER.That is a "flying wing" in itself, and I did not do one, or two rolls in a 210 before, and I TELL YOU now, that beast can roll AT LEAST 90 degrees a second at Va Speed which is 120 KIAS pulling up 10 degrees from a dive waiting for Va at full throttle and FULL aileron deflection to the stop in one quick action. A full 360 degrees will take you less than 4 seconds (If you know what you are doing), and if you don't believe me (which is obvious), believe what you want, I am happy for you. At least I know what the REAL 210 can do, and I am happy that I collected all that information over the years of flying 210's with over 10 000 hours TT now (NOT armchair flying by the way) REAL flying. That is why I can state what I state !! On a lighter note and IMO, the 210 is the best single engine piston, six seater retractable ever made, and you better treat her with respect, or she will bite you!!

 

 

I agree completely. I don't mean to dig up an old thread, but having spent my fair share of time in a real 210, I agree with all that Mustang92 said... a roll rate of 90 degrees a second sounds about right for a Cessna 210.

For those that haven't had the pleasure of piloting a real 210, check out the video below of a Cessna 210 doing an aileron roll ( Not my video by the way ).

 

By the way, for those thinking of getting their pilot's license and trying maneuvers such as in the video above without specialized aerobatics training, or in an aircraft not rated for it... DON'T!

Although these maneuvers are possible if performed by an experienced and skilled pilot with specialized training in such maneuvers, if not done correctly, things can and will go wrong very quickly, which can lead to over-stressing the aircraft with fatal results.

You don't want to end up like the guy who managed to break up his Beechcraft Baron in mid-air because he wanted to show off...

The video below is not a 210, but it illustrates that doing aerobatic maneuvers in GA aircraft that might potentially overstress the airframe, can be fatal.

The pilot below accidentally overstressed the airframe while pulling up, which resulted in the Partenavia's wing's breaking off.

I just thought I'd share this clip, since I don't want people to think that I encourage aerobatic maneuvers in aircraft not designed to do it in real life.
