[HarveyGee]

Check your PMs

[Andy98]

Thankyou to everyone who has offerd

[Grantkinson]

Sorry to bring up an old thread - I am also looking for a 404 POH if someone has one to spare or an electronic version.

Thanks!

[Horatio Leafblower]

I should be able to dig one up-

Send me a PM.

[Defenestrator]

PM if you need one. Have a soft copy.

:ok:

[lowflyingkiwi]

I'm also trying to dig up a copy of a 404 POH if somebody can help. electronic copy would be best

-Cheers

[cabzjet]

Me too! Thanks in advance

[Pinky the pilot]

Can I have a 404 job please

Include me in that request if you please.:ok:

[Horatio Leafblower]

Come on down :D

You might have to fly the Conquest too.... if that's a problem...? :E

[pithblot]

Recon I could put up flying both too Horatio. Would even quite like to just listen to a few more 404s flying by - they are becoming a rarity these days & they still sound lovely.

You folk looking for a POH... enjoy the flying!

[Atticus Finch]

Hey, i know this post was ages ago, but any chance you still have that Cessna 404 POH soft copy?
I know its a long shot.
Thanks regardless:)

[Ixixly]

atticus finch, check your PMs

[Desert Flower]

Just can't beat the sound of two GTSIO-520-M's developing full power!

DF.

[megan]

Have them flying over the roof day in day out. Always been a favourite, but never been in one.

Some folk have all the fun.

[krhth547]

I would really appreciate a soft copy of the 404 POH if possible please!

Thanks in advance!

[Pinky the pilot]

Ummm...Megan; Is that you, shown in the second photograph of post #17?:cool:

[Ixixly]

Probably not Pink as she says she's never been in one!

[Pinky the pilot]

Ah so desu.:(

[Srinath2412]

Please can I have a soft copy of C404 POH.

[Night Bandit]

I have a hard copy of a C404 manual, which I would like to keep, but happy to have it copied if you would like to borrow it.

[Ixixly]

Night Bandit and others, don't go to Officeworks to get it copied, heck of a cost when I did it recently!! If you're still looking let me know, I have a soft copy I can send you.

[Pinky the pilot]

As per Ixixly; I also have a soft copy (which was copied from an example someone once loaned me etc etc;))

I once had it copied quite a few years ago, by an Office Supply company here in the Riverland area of SA for a fellow Ppruner and the cost was about $20. The Company concerned has since changed owners but next time I'm in that part of the district I shall call in to enquire if they still can provide the service.

For the information of fellow Pilots; I have copies of the C404, C421 and C441 POH.

[tonkabean]

I stumbled over this thread on google. I know you've had a lot of requests over the last 7 years!!! Does anyone still have a soft copy that they're willing to share? Would be extremely grateful. TIA

[Xanstin]

I would also love a copy of the poh if anyone has one handy.

Thanks

[Aquino1983]

Hello everyone sorry to bring this old thread up once again, but if anyone has the .pdf version of the c404 it'd greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

[john_tullamarine]

Ummm...Megan; Is that you, shown in the second photograph of post #17?https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/cool.gif

Just had a quick run through this old thread .. in respect of the question, ah, no. You would understand if you knew Megan.

[Pinky the pilot]

Can anyone help Aquino 1983 with his request please? I offered to help him but now cannot find my CD copy of the POH he requires.:( The only one I have now is a hard copy.

If anyone has one on CD I'd appreciate an e-mailed copy M'self!:O

[Defenestrator]

Send me your email and I’ll Dropbox it to you.

[Pinky the pilot]

Defenestrator; PM sent. Many Thanks.:ok:

[Ejector]

What is a soft copy ?

[Capt Fathom]

What is a soft copy ?
A copy that is not hard! :}

[Janmari]

Hello everyone!
Sorry to bring this old thread up one more time...
But if anyone has the .pdf version of the c404 it'd greatly appreciated!!! I have to fly one soon and I would like to prepare the first flight...

Thanks in advance

[systemerror]

Hello All,

Can anyone send me a copy of the 404 POH?
Would be very gratefull

Thank you

[systemerror]

Hi Defenestrator, got an email notification about your PM but couldn't read it because the inbox was full.
If you could send me the Poh to [email protected] would be gratefull

thank you

[Luis Atuesta]

Hello captains
My name is Luis, I am writing to you because I would like to know if you still have the C404 manual available in .pdf, I would be very grateful since I will start flying this plane soon and it would be very useful for me to know it beforehand.
Thank you very much and happy day

There is a previous thread called C402 and C404 Info.

Check list.
1. Reduce speed and select Flap10 Before starting descent.
2. Reduce MP at less than 1 imch per minute on descent.
3. Plan so as to achieve 1 and 2 to arrive in CCT at 120 kn or thereabouts.
4. Allow turbochargers to cool before shutdown
(If not your check pilot will swear at you and hit you).

All else is standard.

[Pinky the pilot]

select Flap10 Before starting descent.

Ummm....I have never heard or been told that one by any C400 series Operator I have ever worked for, or known for that matter!:=

[Capt Fathom]

I thought flaps were used for landing, not for descent?

This is written by someone who has never flown a 404. Same SB who loves a cable tie perhaps

The Sydney seabreeze must have some adverse effects to brain cells.

[Mach E Avelli]

Unfortunately I gave away my copy of the C404 POH many years ago, but I do not recall any advice from Cessna to "reduce speed and select flap 10 before starting descent", or such complex instructions re engine management. No flight engineer, so what attention would our pilot be paying to the outside world if fixated on manifold pressure?. Not saying that is is not worthy of some care, but really - less than an inch per minute? Is that done by use of a stopwatch or, in reality could we be trusted with general advice to gradually reduce it, rather than make rapid changes, and heed the other general advice pertaining to geared props: to keep them positively loaded until near landing?
That 'checklist' is more like a (misguided) instruction manual for student pilots. Hanging flap out before you need it is a baaad idea, not only from a cost perspective, but many airframes are less tolerant of turbulence with flap.
When operating any aircraft: time/drag = fuel = money, so whoever wrote that checklist was not flying in the real world..
However, we all know that older tech turbo charged engines do need gentle run down time. The more of that done while taxying in, the better, as air-cooled engines don't take kindly to idling while stationary on a hot day. The checklist-cum-how-to-fly book quoted above is a bit light-on with sound advice, but big on bullsh!t.

PS: there is no such thing as a Flap 10 position, the selections are UP, T.O. & APPR and LAND.

[Lead Balloon]

...which also shows why the 'idling on ground for a few minutes after landing to cool the turbo' usually achieves the opposite of what those who advocate it intend.

[megan]

Page 7-42 Engine Shutdown

After extended periods of ground engine operation above 1600 RPM or when the CHT indicator shows values within the upper half of the green arc, reduce engine power to between 600 and 800 RPM for a period of not less than 2 to 3 minutes prior to engine shutdown. This procedure is intended to reduce internal turbocharger temperatures and preclude the possibility of premature accumulation of carbon on the turbine shaft seals.

[Lead Balloon]

And after a long descent, approach, landing and short taxi at RPMs below 1600?

[IronEagle99]

Hey All,

I am also looking for a 404 POH, if someone has one would they be able to send it to me?

Kind Regards

[flyauskiwi]

Hi all,
To once again open an old thread, does anyone have a Cessna 404 POH they could send me in soft copy?
Thanks in advance.

[Global Aviator]

Think I’ve got a shiny C421C one… same donkeys? Can’t remember.

Ahhh memories!

The 404 all I remember is what a truck!

[Pinky the pilot]

flyauskiwi; I`m currently in Japan, but will be returning to Australia in about a week. If you haven`t had any other replies by then, I`ll see what I can do.

[Unregistered User]

For anybody interested: I have an original (hard copy) 1979 C404 POH in good condition available. First in with an offer, best dressed. PnP at your cost. QLD based. PM me if interested. (Also have B76 and B58 in vgc).
