Default Cessna 206

The planequest page is an interesting one, and the listing is relatively
complete, but it's odd that they are completely wrong on the one budget
item that's the easiest to get right!

They give the C-206 fuel burn as 10 gal/hour!

All the other numbers seem more reasonable, though unlike the fuel burn,
they are mostly speculation. Who knows whether an engine will make TBO?
Who knows when a new AD will come out?

Unless one rents a plane or has some guaranteed spinner to tailcone
maintenance contract, I think it's impossible to predict airplane
expenses to better than 10-20%.

What is operational cost for cessna 206? Is it much more expensive then
c172? And how much fuel does it burns?
Tried to find those information but I can't.
So I would be very grateful if someone could provide me with these
information.

Thanks!
