The Cessna Model 404 Titan is an American twin-engined, propeller-driven light
aircraft built by Cessna Aircraft. It was that company's largest twin
piston-engined aircraft at the time of its development in the 1970s. Its US
military designation is C-28, and Swedish Air Force designation Tp 87.
History
The Cessna 404 was a development of the Cessna 402 with an enlarged vertical
tail and other changes. The prototype first flew on 26 February 1975. It is
powered by two 375 hp/280 kW turbocharged Continental Motors GTSIO-520 piston
engines. Two versions were offered originally; the Titan Ambassador passenger
aircraft for ten passengers, and the Titan Courier utility aircraft for
passengers or cargo. By early 1982 seven different variants were available,
including a pure cargo version, the Titan Freighter. The Freighter was fitted
with a strengthened floor, cargo doors, and its interior walls and ceiling were
made from impact-resistant polycarbonate materials to minimize damage in the
event of cargo breaking free in-flight.
