  • Family highs: up to 7 passengers, 1310 nm, 225 kt, 30000 ft. Use the POH for your own airplane's figures.
  • Exhaust is a key check: AD 2000-01-16 requires a visual inspection every 50 hours or 30 days, plus a yearly pressure test.
  • Training courses require instrument and multiengine ratings; one syllabus asks for 1000 hours total flight time.
  • Check the logs for turbocharger back plate, stall warning horn, brake and avionics bus breaker items.

The CESSNA 414 model family (414 and 414A) tops out at 7 passengers, 1310 nm range and 225 kt cruise. These are family maxima, not one variant's figures. Confirm against the POH for the specific airplane.

What pilot experience is needed for the CESSNA 414?

For CESSNA 414 training, the syllabi require at least a private certificate with an instrument rating and a multiengine land rating. They also require takeoffs and landings within 90 days. One syllabus asks for 1000 hours total time.

What should I inspect on a CESSNA 414 before buying?

On a CESSNA 414, start with exhaust AD 2000-01-16 compliance and the turbocharger back plate status. Also check windshield seals, gear warning and stall horn parts, and the oxygen and pressurization systems.

Performance and speeds

A RAM comparison table lists the baseline CESSNA 414 at 310 hp per engine, 36 in takeoff manifold pressure, 1580 fpm twin-engine climb and 240 fpm single-engine climb. Cruise at 23,000 ft on 230 hp is 206 ktas at 19.3 gph per engine. Checklist speeds: Vx 88, Vy 112, Vmca 72 kts.

Airworthiness items to check

Exhaust (AD 2000-01-16): replace V-band clamps every 500 hours. Remove the exhaust aft of the slip-joints at 2500 hours or 12 years. A turbocharger bulletin calls for back plate replacement at overhaul, 2000 hours or 12 years. Stall warning horn replacement (MEB-34-07) is optional.

Pre-buy and ownership notes

A ground checklist covers oxygen, alternate static, pitot and stall heat, de-ice boots, cowl flaps and gear warning horns. The emergency gear blow-down bottle applies to the 414A. Flight checks include pressurization differential and the autopilot. Windshield moisture seal wear is a leading cause of early failure. A Cleveland brake conversion STC covers the 414 and 414A.

Safety notes

  • Vmca is 72 kts per the normal checklist. Brief single-engine procedures before every takeoff.
  • Inconel exhaust parts corrode from the inside without flaking. Remove the carbon and inspect internally.
  • Avionics bus breaker switches with a date code before 0434 have a 1,000 hour safe life (CASA AD). Check the part number and date code.
