The Cessna 404 Titan was a twin-engine turbocharged piston aircraft that represented Cessna's largest piston-powered twin during the late 1970s, designed specifically for commuter airlines and freight operators requiring high payload capacity from short runways. First flown on February 26, 1975, it was a low-wing monoplane powered by two 375-horsepower Continental GTSIO-520 engines and could accommodate up to 10 occupants or substantial cargo loads. With a service ceiling exceeding 26,000 feet and range surpassing 2,000 miles, the aircraft demonstrated 30 percent greater fuel efficiency than its predecessor. Manufactured by Cessna Aircraft Company from 1976 to 1982, only 378 examples were built before production ceased due to disappointing sales. AviatorDB tracks 80,556 Cessna aircraft currently registered in the FAA database. The ICAO type designator for this aircraft model is C404.
