Description
1971 Cessna 414 – N711WA
Offered for sale is this attractive 1971 Cessna 414, N711WA, Serial Number 414-0172, with 6,448.1 hours total airframe time, relatively low-time engines, a recently completed extensive annual inspection, and an eye-catching exterior repaint completed in 2019. This classic pressurized piston twin combines desirable maintenance history, practical avionics, and comfortable passenger accommodations in a well-presented aircraft.
One of N711WA's most appealing features is its engine and propeller times. The left engine has just 479.9 hours since major overhaul, while the right engine has 537.8 SMOH. Both three-blade propellers also have favorable overhaul times, with 479.7 SMOH on the left propeller and only 72.7 SMOH on the right. These figures are particularly noteworthy for buyers evaluating the maintenance and operating considerations associated with owning a pressurized piston twin.
Maintenance is another important highlight. N711WA underwent an extensive annual inspection in September 2026, performed by Brandon Goergen of BG Aero LLC, who is also representing the aircraft for sale. Recent work includes a completed cabin heater pressure test and installation of a new heater pressure switch. According to the seller, approximately three years remain before the next applicable exhaust AD compliance requirement, subject to confirmation through the maintenance records. Aircraft logbooks are available for review.
The cockpit features a traditional analog instrument panel equipped with a Garmin GNS 530 GPS/NAV/COM, ADS-B equipment, and an autopilot. Additional navigation and communication equipment complements the panel, while dual flight controls provide a familiar cockpit arrangement. The aircraft also features a pressurized cabin, air conditioning, retractable landing gear, wingtip fuel tanks, and cabin heating for added versatility and comfort.
N711WA's exterior is particularly appealing, having been repainted in 2019 and currently rated 9/10 by the seller. The predominantly white finish is accented by a contrasting dark lower fuselage and tasteful burgundy and gold striping, which extends across the engine nacelles and wingtip fuel tanks. Three-blade propellers with polished spinners complement the aircraft's classic appearance.
Inside, the passenger cabin offers a comfortable, traditional layout featuring cream-colored upholstered seating, individual passenger armrests, coordinating sidewalls, beige carpeting, and cabin window curtains. Overhead lighting and air conditioning contribute to passenger comfort, while sheepskin-style front seat covers add a practical touch to the cockpit. The interior is rated 7/10 by the seller.
With its relatively low engine overhaul times, recently inspected airframe, attractive exterior, and desirable comfort equipment, N711WA represents an appealing opportunity for buyers seeking a classic Cessna 414. Its combination of a September 2026 annual inspection, 2019 exterior repaint, Garmin navigation equipment, and pressurized cabin makes it worthy of consideration in today's piston twin market.
