A Cessna 441 Conquest II costs approximately $1.19m (€1.1m) to $1.43m (€1.32m) to buy at 1982 market values, and about $548k (€507k) a year to own flying 80 hours, roughly $6,845 (€6,338) per flight hour all-in. It seats 10, cruises at 300 kt (345 mph) and has a published range of 2,200 nm (4,074 km), needing about 2,887 ft (880 m) of runway. Figures are indicative planning estimates compiled 2026-07, not a quote for any specific airframe.

Excellent range and speed for its used price, but ageing systems and specialist Garrett-engine support require expertise.
Indicative cash costs at 1982 market values, before financing, depreciation and tax. The fixed base is the same whether the aircraft flies or not, so the effective hourly cost falls as utilisation rises.
| Annual use | Annual cash cost | Effective cost / h | Five-year cash outlay |
|---|---|---|---|
| 40 h / year | $485k (€449k) | $12,123 (€11,225) | $3.72m (€3.44m) |
| 80 h / year | $548k (€507k) | $6,845 (€6,338) | $4.03m (€3.73m) |
| 120 h / year | $610k (€565k) | $5,085 (€4,708) | $4.35m (€4.03m) |
| 180 h / year | $704k (€652k) | $3,912 (€3,622) | $4.82m (€4.46m) |
Every figure above is built from a $184k (€170k) fixed annual base, covering hangarage, insurance, scheduled maintenance reserves and recurring airworthiness costs, plus $1,566 (€1,450) per hour flown for fuel, reserves and consumables. It is a planning model for comparing aircraft and testing utilisation, not a maintenance programme quote, insurance quote or pre-buy assessment.
Older examples add calendar-driven maintenance: a 2011-built airframe is estimated at $344k (€319k) per year at 80 hours. Airframe and engine time, maintenance and damage history, avionics, equipment, geography and tax treatment move a real transaction further than the model year does, so price the aircraft in front of you, not the model. A cheaper example carrying deferred maintenance can be the more expensive aircraft once the first annual inspection is complete.
Cessna 441 Conquest II cost guide answers the same figures as standalone purchase and ownership questions, and the ownership cost calculator lets you replace these assumptions with your own hours and fixed costs.
On top of a pilot certificate, this aircraft obliges the person flying it to hold the following. Each one is time and money before the first trip, and insurers usually attach their own minimums on top.
US requirements under 14 CFR 61.31, stated for orientation and not as advice. PlaneFit is not an aviation authority or a training organisation. Other authorities set different rules, and the current regulation and your instructor are what govern.
An indicative 1982 market price for a Cessna 441 Conquest II is $1.19m (€1.1m) to $1.43m (€1.32m). This is a planning estimate normalised across the market, not a quote for a specific airframe. Condition, engine time remaining, avionics and damage history move the real number more than the model year does.
Flying 80 hours a year, a Cessna 441 Conquest II works out at roughly $548k (€507k) annually, which is about $6,845 (€6,338) per flight hour all-in once fixed costs are spread across those hours. The direct cost per hour alone, covering fuel, reserves and consumables, is about $1,566 (€1,450).
Reported range is 2,200 nm (4,074 km). PlaneFit does not yet use this figure for mission ranking on this model.
Beyond a pilot certificate, a Cessna 441 Conquest II requires multi-engine rating, type rating, complex airplane endorsement and high-altitude training. An airplane multi-engine land class rating. Insurers add their own minimum: multi-engine time, time in this make and model, and often a checkout with a named instructor before you fly it solo. These are US requirements and are stated for orientation; confirm them against the current regulation and an instructor.
Plan on approximately 2,887 ft (880 m) for take-off. Check this against the actual runway, surface, slope, temperature and loading, all of which extend the requirement.
