About the Cessna 310R

The Cessna 310R is the final and most refined 310 (1975-1980) — the longest-fuselage, highest-useful-load version of Cessna's classic light twin, with 285-hp Continental IO-520 engines and a ~195-kt cruise. It is the 310 to want for cabin travel with twin redundancy, which is why clean R models hold value. The cost story is twin maintenance and fuel; a thorough pre-buy on both engines and the fuel system is essential.

Produced 1975–1980.
