Grand Prize: 1967 Cessna 206 (N206KY)
Wings of Hope’s First U.S. Medical Transport Plane
The Cessna 206 is a workhorse of a plane with a well-earned reputation for flying in even the most demanding environments. But the winner of this particular Cessna — delivered with a fresh annual inspection and IFR certification — will be taking home a piece of Wings of Hope history. N206KY flew Wings of Hope’s first domestic medical patient mission in 2003, marking the launch of our U.S. Medical Relief & Air Transport (MAT) Program. While its days of flying patient missions have passed, N206KY is ready for its next chapter — it just needs you to write the story.
This Cessna 206, a high-wing, six-seat utility aircraft commonly used for bush flying, cargo transport, air taxi operations, and personal travel. Its robust landing gear, two large rear cargo doors, and approximately 1,688-pound useful load make it well-suited for a wide range of operating environments.
At the time of transfer, the aircraft will have approximately 12,800 hours total time, with approximately 60 hours since the engine and propeller overhauls were completed in 2019.
Equipment and features include:
- Factory-installed seaplane kit (the lifting rings, larger rudder, ventral finand tail cone were removed during the rebuild and are not provided)
- Horton STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) modification
- Garmin GNS 430W GPS/NAV/COM
- Garmin GTX 345 transponder with ADS-B In/Out (traffic and weather)
- Bendix/King KX-155 NAV/COM
- JPI 700 engine monitoring system
- Inertial shoulder harnesses for front seats

- The aircraft will be delivered with a current annual inspection and IFR certification.

Meet Caleb
Caleb was born with his right femur shorter than this left. Wings of Hope flies him from his home in Wichita, Kans., to Shriners Children’s St. Louis to lengthen his leg — a process that requires multiple surgeries and years of treatment. The 16-year-old had his first appointment in St. Louis was when he was only two and has flown with Wings of Hope about 20 roundtrip flights.
Caleb plans to return to Shriners for one final leg-lengthening surgery in the summer of 2026. He and his mom will stay in St. Louis about 4-6 weeks for post-surgery appointments. Then, Wings of Hope will fly him back to Shriners every other week, at first, and periodically for the next 18-24 months — until his leg is fully healed.
