Hi folks,

Does anyone have, or know where I can get, some basic information from a reputable source on the Cessna 421 Golden Eagle.

By basic information, I mean something like a POH or at the very least performance data and limitations etc.

Many thanks

The type certificate here will give some info such as limit speeds and C of G.

Some figures for the B model I picked up some where from a driver. No experience myself.
Cruise speeds, using 63% power settings were about 220 knots at FL230 and about 200 knots at FL180. Fuel flows were on average, block to block, about 245 pounds (41 gallons) per hour.
