About the Rockwell International Commander 200

The Rockwell Commander 200 is a single-engine, four-seat retractable-gear aircraft produced by Rockwell International between 1976 and 1979 as an entry-level model in the Commander line. Designed to compete with the Piper Arrow and Beechcraft Sierra, the Commander 200 featured a 200-horsepower Lycoming IO-360 engine, constant-speed propeller, and a distinctive high-wing configuration uncommon among retractable singles. Its spacious cabin and docile handling made it popular with owner-pilots seeking a step up from fixed-gear trainers, though production ended after just three years when Rockwell exited general aviation manufacturing.

The type's performance envelope is typical of 1970s four-seat retractables: cruise speeds around 140 knots, a service ceiling near 14,000 feet, and a useful load of approximately 1,100 pounds. The never-exceed speed of 202 knots and max structural cruising speed of 169 knots place it squarely in the middle of its class. With only about 150 aircraft built during its brief production run, the Commander 200 remains relatively rare on the used market, though examples continue to operate in private hands across North America and the Pacific.
