Cessna 411

The Cessna 411 was a large piston twin with a pressurised cabin and powerful geared engines, intended for fast executive travel. It was an early member of Cessna’s cabin-class twin family and offered more space than the smaller 310. Its complex engines helped keep production numbers low.

Did you know?

The 411 was Cessna's first cabin-class twin and stayed unpressurised -- true cabin pressurisation only arrived with its successor, the 421.
