About the Cessna 340
The Cessna 340 is a pressurised light twin that brings cabin-class comfort to a smaller, more manageable airframe than the 414 and 421 — a six-seat aircraft with airstair entry, club seating and two turbocharged Continental TSIO-520 engines. It is one of the most popular owner-flown pressurised twins, offering high-altitude capability and a comfortable cabin at lower cost than the larger cabin-class Cessnas. It comes in two sub-families: the original 340 and the improved, higher gross-weight 340A. See the live price range and median above for the Cessna 340 and 340A listings currently on the market.

Key price factors: engine time to overhaul, year and airframe hours, avionics, damage history and logbook completeness — see the buying guide below for the full pre-purchase checklist.
Buying a Used Cessna 340
Every Cessna 340 faces a mandatory 1,500-hour overhaul, so the single biggest factor in used price is how much time remains before that overhaul is due — a fresh-overhaul airframe can be worth a large share of the $40,000 overhaul cost more than one approaching its limit.
What to check before buying
- Time to overhaul — hours and years remaining to the 1,500-hour limit; this dominates resale value more than total time.
- Logbook completeness — continuous, gap-free maintenance records; missing logs cut value and complicate financing.
- Damage history — any prior accident, hard landing or blade strike; cross-check the registration against accident databases.
- Avionics — a glass panel vs steam gauges materially changes price.
- Pre-buy inspection — always commission an independent inspection by a type-experienced mechanic before money changes hands.
