Operational Context

Cessna 350 Corvalis — composite single-engine aircraft

The 350 entered service in 2007 after Cessna acquired the Columbia line. It features a low-wing composite airframe and fixed landing gear. The design emphasizes aerodynamic efficiency and modern avionics.

A Continental piston engine producing approximately 310 horsepower powers the Corvalis. Cruise speed approaches 190 knots (352 km/h). Maximum takeoff weight exceeds 3,400 pounds (1,542 kg).

The 350 appealed to pilots seeking speed and comfort. Production was later consolidated under updated branding. The aircraft reflects a shift toward composite materials in general aviation.
