Aircraft Model Overview (Reference only)

The Cessna 310P is a five-to-six-seat light piston twin and the 1969 model year in Cessna's long-running 310 line, one of the most recognizable cabin twins of its era. Known for its sleek lines and signature wingtip fuel tanks, the 310 blended respectable speed with true twin-engine capability and passenger comfort. It remains a popular choice among owners seeking classic twin performance. Power comes from two Continental IO-470 engines, each rated at 260 horsepower and driving constant-speed propellers. So equipped, the 310P cruises around 180 to 195 knots and climbs strongly on both engines at roughly 1,600 feet per minute, delivering the cross-country speed and load capability that define the type, along with the redundancy of a second engine. The all-metal, low-wing airframe features retractable landing gear and the distinctive tip tanks that carry the main fuel supply out at the wingtips. Clean aerodynamics contribute to its cruise performance, while the twin layout brings the systems complexity typical of the class. Handling is stable and well-mannered in cruise, but single-engine operations demand proficiency and respect for the aircraft's performance limits. The cabin seats five to six with comfortable accommodations and useful baggage capacity in the nose and fuselage, well suited to family or business travel. Panels vary widely by aircraft, from original analog instruments to modern IFR avionics and autopilot upgrades on well-maintained examples. Useful load, fuel configuration, and center-of-gravity limits should be verified per airframe. In the used market the 310P is valued for its speed, cabin comfort, and classic twin character, supported by a dedicated owner and type community. It competes with other light twins on performance and comfort while carrying the higher operating and maintenance costs inherent to twin-engine ownership. Engine times, corrosion status, and AD and maintenance history are central to valuation. Overall, the 1969 Cessna 310P offers capable, comfortable twin-engine travel with distinctive styling and a strong support network. It suits proficient, instrument-rated owners prepared for the training, currency, and maintenance commitment that light-twin ownership requires, with airframe condition and records the decisive factors in evaluating any example.
