Engine Specifications

The Cessna 441 is powered by two Garrett TPE331-8 series turboprop engines. The static sea level ratings for takeoff and maximum continuous power are both 635.5 shaft horsepower at 100% gas generator speed, with a maximum exhaust gas temperature of 450°C. The engines can be interchanged in any combination.

Weight and Balance

The maximum takeoff weight for the Cessna 441 is 9,850 lb, with a maximum landing weight of 9,360 lb and a zero fuel weight of 8,500 lb. The center of gravity (C.G.) range for landing gear extended is from +173.35 inches to +178.07 inches at 9,850 lb. The aircraft has a certified empty weight that includes undrainable oil and unusable fuel.

Fuel Capacity

The total fuel capacity of the Cessna 441 is 3,227 lb (481.5 gallons) distributed in two wing tanks, with 1,613.5 lb (240.75 gallons) in each tank. The usable fuel is 3,183 lb (475 gallons), with 1,591.5 lb (237.5 gallons) available in each tank at the specified station.

Airspeed Limits

The maximum operating airspeed (VMO) is 245 knots from sea level to 21,300 feet, and the maximum Mach operating speed (MMO) above 21,300 feet is .55 Mach. Other important airspeed limits include a maneuvering speed (VA) of 167 knots and a landing gear operating speed (VLO) of 180 knots.

Control Surface Movements

The Cessna 441 features specific control surface movement limits: the elevator can move up to 25° and down to 15°, while the ailerons have the same limits. The rudder can deflect up to 32° in either direction. These limits are crucial for understanding the aircraft's handling characteristics.

Safety notes

  • Ensure the current weight and balance report is available for each flight.
  • Follow the specified fuel and oil capacities to maintain safe operations.
