This 1976 Cessna 340A Is a Cabin-Class, Load-Carrying ‘AircraftForSale’ Top Pick
The turbocharged light twin’s power and comfort provide a big-airplane feel.

Cessna 340
The typical cabin-class piston twin buyer is generally moving up from a high-performance single, or perhaps even stepping down from a jet or turboprop. With a need to go places comfortably and efficiently, these buyers recognize that a serious business airplane needs a decent cabin, credible speed and the ability to hack it when there's ice or other rotten flying conditions in the forecast. Pressurization is nice since passengers don't want to spend several hours with a plastic hose stuck up the nose.
