Cessna 350
The Cessna 350, introduced in 2009, is a single‑engine, four‑seat, low‑wing aircraft that represents the evolution of Cessna’s modern cantilever line. Developed from the earlier Cessna 340/350 series and later rebranded as the Corvalis TT, the model was designed to blend the performance of a high‑speed light jet with the simplicity of a piston‑powered trainer. Production began at the Grand Forks, North Dakota facility under the leadership of Textron Aviation, and the aircraft quickly earned a reputation for efficiency, comfort, and advanced avionics.
Key features include a 310‑horsepower Continental TSIO‑550‑B flat‑six engine, a constant‑speed propeller, and a fully integrated Garmin G1000 glass cockpit. The airframe employs composite wing spar components and a semi‑monocoque aluminum fuselage, delivering a cruise speed of 213 knots and a range exceeding 1,200 nautical miles. Optional upgrades such as a ballistic parachute system and pressurization further enhance safety and versatility.
In aviation, the Cessna 350 stands out for bridging the gap between traditional GA trainers and faster, more capable cross‑country aircraft. Its blend of speed, modern avionics, and relative operating economy has made it a popular choice for flight schools, owner‑pilots, and charter operators seeking a reliable, high‑performance platform.
