Latitude Aviation is proud to bring to market N413VV, which is a 1979 Cessna 421C. N413VV is owned by a BeechTalk member and is based outside of Baltimore at Carroll County Regional Airport (KDMW) in Westminster, MD.
N413VV has no known damage history, only 4004 TT, and 507 SMOH on Victor Aviation engines. The propellers have 1400 SPOH but 518 since IRAN. And because it is a straight-leg 421C it boasts and impressive 2129 pound useful load.
This aircraft was delivered new to South Africa, came back to the US in 1985, and then went to England and Ireland from 1986 to 2000 which is when it came back to the United States. Unfortunately the airframe logbooks from new until 1996 are missing (but the engines and propellers were installed after that time period).
This is an incredible example of a highly-upgraded 421C. The panel is second to none with its G600 TXi, GFC 600 autopilot, dual GTN 750Xi's, 2 GI 275's, GWX 75 radar, GTX 345, GTX 335R, GMA 35, GDL 69, FlightStream 510 and Garmin EIS system. Simply put, there is an incredible amount of glass and capability in this panel.
Other upgrades and notable features include R134 air conditioning, O&N forward and aft wing nacelle locker fuel tanks (boosting usable fuel to an incredible 280 gallons), VG's, CiES, fuel senders, LED lights, and Premiere Aviation Speed Covers.
Finally, the cosmetics are gorgeous. Both the paint and interior were completed in 2020 and show incredibly well.
Below is a detailed spec sheet which has a Dropbox link that will take you to a folder with over 130 photos, logbook PDF's, 337's, and the W&B form. I have also attached a few photos below as well. Please contact me any time to discuss this turn-key and spectacular 421C.
