Thank you for sharing, and although I was primarily shopping the 414A’s ….this pretty much seals the decision for me that the 414A is the exact right model for me!!! Thank you!

      Thank you for the comment and watching the video. Glad it helped. We did a lot of research and comparison with other airplanes including King Air. Considering all the facts it made the most sense to buy 414A. There are some very important details most people don't consider. An example: 10 gallons more fuel burn on 421C will cost $50,000 extra just fuel alone in 1000 hours. King Air would cost a few times more. Please feel free to contact us directly through our company; glad to help any way we can.

Your reviews are always good, but this one was your best. I suggest the next plane like this you do you film all the work that you are doing to it. This plane would have produced over 30 hours of video. Video many of your viewers would love to see. I would love to see you guys doing a 310R or a 421CW.

Our aircraft had the wings removed and every panel was removed for different kinds of tasks, rigging flight controls, installing electrical components, etc. You made that 414 look like a million bucks! That was such a nice demo and a beautiful airplane. Great job!!

    Nice review. I've owned a 1975 C414 and now have a 1980 C414A and love it. Mostly due to the gear, and it's a little quieter with the engines being a bit further out. I still feel as if I'm missing doing things while flying due to the simple fuel system, my other one had 6 tanks and required fuel management...easy,, but ya had to do it. Very stable platform and I find my RAM IV equipped bird likes it in FL200 to FL230 are for best performance (wind dependent of course) and distance flown. I do a lot of 1 to 1.5 hour flights so 190 to 200 is where I end up most of the time. Love these old birds, expensive to maintain of course but a very capable all around plane. Totally agree with cold weather starts, hate to do that but we don't have the tanis heaters but it's hangered 99% of the time.

      @@caiolinnertel8777 It's been an excellent airplane. Range was the primary consideration and I fly Long Beach to Chicago nonstop in both directions frequently. I started off looking at the Piper Cheyenne 400LS, which is 40 knots faster, has even longer legs, and a service ceiling of flight level 410. Truly an awesome airplane. But there were only 48 or so ever manufactured so I was extremely concerned about service and parts availability. There weren't a ton of C441s manufactured, but there were 350 or so, so I was more confident about service and parts. Even at that, I've run into issues. Still, I'm satisfied that I'm getting what I paid for in the airplane.

      The 414A definitely has the easiest fuel system of the twin Cessnas. If you’re looking for a multi engine trainer, the pressurized, cabin class 414A may be a bit of a leap; the 300 series Cessnas are a bit more in reach. And you can always upgrade again later.
