Description
Pressurized cabin, 240 kt cruise. The flagship of Cessna’s
piston twins: two geared, turbocharged 375 hp Continental GTSIO-520 engines and a
cabin that stays at 10,000 ft while you cruise at 26,000 — over the weather,
not through it.

About this aircraft
The 421C is the top of Cessna’s piston twin line and the only pressurized aircraft
of its class in this segment. Two geared, turbocharged and fuel-injected Continental
GTSIO-520 engines of 375 hp each drive it to roughly 240 kt in cruise, with
a still-air range of up to about 1,500 NM on the wet wing.
Pressurization is the reason people choose it over a Navajo or a Baron. The cabin
holds sea-level pressure to 10,000 ft and a 10,000 ft cabin altitude at
26,000 ft, so passengers arrive rested and the aircraft flies above most weather
rather than around it. On routes over terrain or through convective season, that is a
dispatch-reliability argument, not a comfort one.

Dimensions are deliberately omitted here: sources differ between
421 variants and quoting the wrong wingspan is the kind of error a buyer notices.
Take them from the AFM of this aircraft and add them once confirmed.
