The Jet Finder's aircraft directory currently tracks 5 active Cessna Conquest II registrations in the FAA Aircraft Registry. Each tail number page below provides individual registration data, serial numbers, ownership records, and specification details sourced from official FAA documentation.
Performance & Powerplant
Power comes from 2x Honeywell TPE331-8, each producing 635 SHP each of thrust. Maximum cruise speed reaches 280 knots (undefined), with a long-range cruise of 250 kts for missions where fuel efficiency matters more than speed. The service ceiling of 35,000 feet puts the Cessna Conquest II well above commercial traffic corridors, and a takeoff distance of 2,510 ft keeps smaller airfields accessible.
With 1,530 nautical miles of range under standard reserves, the Cessna Conquest II handles regional cross-country routing — New York to Miami, Chicago to Dallas, or Los Angeles to Seattle. Typical hourly operating costs range from $1,000-$1,500 per flight hour.
Cabin & Interior
The Cessna Conquest II cabin measures 16.0 ft long, 4.8 ft wide, and 4.8 ft tall. Standard configurations seat up to 8 passengers, with 50 cu ft of externally accessible baggage capacity. The Collins Pro Line avionics suite provides full IFR certification for all-weather operations.
Market Position
Pressurized twin turboprop for corporate and charter use. The Cessna Conquest II continues to serve corporate, charter, and private operators worldwide, supported by a strong aftermarket network and ongoing manufacturer support.
