About the Cessna T210N
The Cessna T210N records about 4 accidents per 1,000 aircraft-years over the type's FAA-registration exposure. Measured against a peer cohort of same-type, engine-class, and seat-range aircraft, the T210N sits at about the 40% mark, a higher accident rate than about 40% of those comparable types. Of 44 recorded accidents for the T210N, 7 were fatal.
More than 700 T210N airframes have been removed from the U.S. civil registry. Across every registry record the T210N has ever held, about 60% have been deregistered, while just over a third remain on the active registry.
More than 400 T210Ns remain on the active U.S. civil registry, the 47th-largest active fleet among Cessna's models. The T210N accounts for about 0.6% of Cessna's total active registered fleet.

What sellers are asking for the Cessna T210N, across current listings, grouped by model year.
As of October 15, 2026. How we calculate this.
| Years | Currency | Typical asking range | Median |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1975–1979 | USD | ≈ $200k – $240k | ≈ $210k |
These are asking prices, not sale prices. What any one aircraft asks or sells for can swing widely with airframe and engine condition, damage history, avionics, paint and interior, logbooks and service records, and plenty else a listing never shows.
Safety Analysis
Composition of NTSB accident records for this model in general-aviation operations (FAR Part 91 and 137), based on NTSB data as of May 1, 2026. It's a breakdown of recorded accidents rather than a safety rating, and types with significant non-GA operation (such as Part 135) may be under-represented.
Accidents are identity-confirmed against FAA registration records (two independent sources).

Aircraft-years of FAA registration exposure (2008–present).
Within its peer cohort
Within this model's peer class (same aircraft type, engine class, and seat range), comparison of its share of recorded NTSB accidents to its share of FAA registration exposure (aircraft-years since 2008).
This is a share comparison, not flight-hours adjusted, so a model flown more per airframe than its peers will show an accident share above its exposure share even if its per-hour safety is average. Methodology →
Accidents by year
Recorded NTSB general-aviation accidents per calendar year, derived directly from the NTSB accident database. Each bar shows the accidents that occurred in that year. Methodology →
Phase of flight
Which phase of flight each accident occurred in, as coded by the NTSB. Most accidents happen in the phases where most flying time is concentrated, so this isn't a measure of which phase is most dangerous.
Finding category
Top-level NTSB cause category, from the coded investigation findings. An accident often has more than one finding, so totals here can exceed the recorded accident count.
Injury severity
NTSB classification of the worst injury in each accident: None, Minor, Serious, or Fatal. Each accident counts in exactly one severity.
