All pilots aspire to fly higher, faster and farther than every other mortal - especially those in your own social circles or hangar row. If you're one of the elite few with the means and burning desire to own the world's fastest certified piston single in production today, then now is the time to dispose of lesser aircraft and seize the plane that has no equal - Carpe Speedem. The Columbia 400 is fast. Call it what you want Mach .42, 235 knots, 270 mph or just plain 'screamin' - only Uncle Sam has wings that can match the Columbia 400 combination of service ceiling, raw speed and cross country range - but he won't let you take your clubs. We'll build a Columbia 400 with your choice of options and with the combination of custom colors that suits your fancy. We recommend Racing Green - it's the color of envy. Congratulations - you've arrived - now strap on the rocket, grab the stick and light the fire!

Teledyne Continental Motors (TCM) TSIO-550-C The Teledyne Continental Motors TSIO-550-C engine powering the Columbia 400 is a six-cylinder, twin-turbocharged, twin-intercooled, horizontally opposed, engine incorporating the design, manufacturing, and service features aimed at improving performance and economy as its naturally aspirated IO-550-N cousin used on the Columbia 350. The TSIO-550-C incorporates a balanced intake system providing equalized air distribution to each of the six cylinders. This balanced air distribution system, coupled with the TCM Fuel Injection System, optimizes the output of all six cylinders, providing the most power available with the lowest possible fuel consumption. The components of the TSIO-550-C are produced in the largely vertically integrated Manufacturing Excellence center at TCM’s headquarters on the latest in computer-controlled manufacturing equipment. Using the latest in computer controls and monitoring, the TSIO-550-C is produced to tight variances on critical components and engine characteristics that result in a engine that is essentially blueprinted direct from the factory. TCM offers week-long factory training courses open to the owners of Columbia aircraft and welcomes customer tours.

Fully integrated with the VLOC/GPS, the EXP5000 provides synchronized switching during the transition from the enroute phase to the approach phase of the flight. When an instrument approach is selected, the PFD displays lateral (and vertical with ILS) guidance indications on the attitude display for increased precision and reduced scanning. The EHSI can be viewed in standard 360-degree compass rose, or in a 120-degree arc mode, with selectable RMI pointer and flight-plan moving map display. Coupled Autopilot Functions The EXP5000 is coupled with the S-TEC 55X autopilot for altitude preselect, vertical-speed-select and heading-select modes, without the need for external controllers. Selection bugs and digital readouts for each of these parameters are provided for clear and concise operation. Avidyne FlightMax Entegra EX5000 Multi-Function Display (MFD) The EX5000 MFD provides 7 pages of information, 2 of which are optional. Map – Provides course information overlaid onto a map that displays shaded terrain as well as navigational aids including special-use airspace. Zoom feature can be detailed enough to show a single airport or wide enough to depict the entire United States. Full instrument approaches, once selected, are displayed including the complete missed approach procedure. NEXRAD and lightning are displayed if the SatWX satellite weather option is selected. Chart (optional) – This page appears if E-Plates was purchased. The chart page displays Jeppesen approach plates, departures, arrivals and airport diagrams in full-screen mode. Jeppesen subscription required. Trip – The Trip page provides complete information about the route of flight, including a list of all remaining waypoints in the active flightplan, with distances and time in route for each leg. If the SatWX option is selected, the bottom half of this page displays the METAR for whichever waypoint has been selected enroute.

All engine instruments are displayed including cylinder head temperatures (CHT’s) and exhaust gas temperatures (EGT’s) for each cylinder; displays are both digital and in bar graph format. A Lean Assist Mode is provided, greatly simplifying the process of establishing Best Power (rich-of-peak) and Best Economy (lean-of-peak). Garmin GMA 340 Audio Panel The GMA 340 features innovative LED-illuminated push button controls that allow audio selection of both NAV and Comm audio. Large buttons activate the Comm microphone and audios for both Comm transceivers to simplify cockpit workload; Split Comm allows the pilot to transmit/receive on Comm 1 and the co-pilot to transmit/receive on Comm 2. MASQ ™ processing reduces ambient noise from the avionics inputs. Comm transmit indication is also provided. In addition, the GMA 340 includes a four-place VOX intercom with three selectable modes of isolation and independent pilot, co-pilot, and passenger volume control. Each microphone input has a dedicated VOX circuit to ensure that only the active microphone is heard when squelch is broken. Special cabin noise de-emphasis circuitry enhances cockpit communications. Also standard is the three-light Marker Beacon Receiver/Indicator with high/low sensitivity selection and SmartMute ™ marker audio muting. Garmin GNS 430 IFR GPS, Com, VOR, LOC, and Glide-Slope Dual units are provided as standard equipment. The GNS 430 is a WAAS-upgradeable IFR GPS, Com, VOR, LOC, and glide-slope with color moving map and E-Prox terrain awareness in one multipurpose unit. The TSO'd VHF Com provides 25 kHz spacing for 760-channel configuration. A vast Jeppesen database that can be updated with a front-loading data card contains all airports, VORs, NDBs, Intersections, FSS, Approach, DPs/STARs, and SUA information. The GNS 430 makes practical use of this information with features like intelligent frequency nomination. Garmin GTX 327 Mode C Digital Transponder This full-featured, TSO-certified transponder provides a unique level of functionality and utility. Some of the GTX 327's most unique features are the easiest to see, among them, the easy-reading DSTN Liquid Crystal Display which reverses the numbers out of black for optimal viewing. The numeric keypad makes entering a squawk code a snap, and a dedicated VFR button allows for quick-and-easy 1200/VFR squawking. The GTX 327 also offers important timing and display functions such as flight time and count-up and count-down timers, as well as current pressure altitude. S-TEC System FiftyFiveX Autopilot including PFD Flight Director The System FiftyFiveX is a high-performance, 2-axis (roll & pitch) autopilot that provides: HDG – Heading hold based upon the PFD selection NAV – Tracking VOR or GPS enroute ALT/VS – Altitude hold, climbs and descents, all based upon PFD selection APR – Approach mode provides greater accuracy for instrument approaches. GPSS (GPS Roll Steering) – Integrates the autopilot with the GPS Navigator function which provides roll steering commands, independent of the CDI needle movement. The electronic CDI needle on the PFD is automatically set based upon output from the GPS. Autopilot annunciation is duplicated at the top of the PFD. E-PROX™ Graphical Terrain Awareness E-Prox™ provides the security of knowing what is below and ahead of you. The integrated Graphical Terrain Awareness feature includes a worldwide terrain and obstacle database and provides graphical alerts to warn of terrain or obstacle conflicts ahead. Optional Equipment TCM Platinum IO-550-N Engine (Columbia 350) TCM Platinum TSIO-550-C Engine (Columbia 400) Platinum Engines are balanced three times during the manufacturing process, have tuned injectors and include a longer warranty. The 5-year manufacturer’s limited warranty consists of the normal two-year limited warranty for parts and labor plus an additional three-year limited warranty on select Teledyne Continental Motors parts. Garmin G1000 The Garmin G1000 provides an unmatched level of cockpit integration. Although “integration” has become a buzz word in aviation of late – try this easy exercise to gauge the level of integration in any cockpit. Simply count the number of items in the radio rack and compare that to the Columbia “i” model panel. You’ll quickly realize that if you have two stand-alone GPS, an audio panel, transponder, separate auto-pilot and more, the cockpit is not as “integrated” as it could be. The “i” model Columbia offers a “fully-integrated flight deck”, of that there is no doubt. Plus Columbia offers the only Flight Management System complete with alpha-numeric Remote Access Data Entry (READY Pad™). Look for other manufacturers to follow our lead on this wave of the future. The 10.4” G1000 PFD and MFD mounted in landscape (horizontal) orientation include the following standard equipment: Garmin G1000 IFR NAV/COMM/GPS with glide slope GFC700 attitude-based coupled auto-pilot with control wheel steering and flight level change Integrated GMS340 audio panel Integrated GTX330 Mode S transponder with Traffic Information (TIS) E-Prox™ terrain awareness SatWX™ satellite weather datalink SatRadio™ 130 channel satellite entertainment E-Monitor™ Engine Monitor & Fuel Totalizer Digitally monitor all 6 EGT and CHT (TIT on 400 Models) during critical phases of flight like take-off and decent. Use the Lean Assist mode during cruise to dial in Best Power or Best Economy. The on-board fuel computer will display fuel remaining at each programmed waypoint by calculating fuel burn and ground speed. SatWX™ Satellite Weather Information System The SatWX option equips the aircraft with an antenna and receiver enabling reception of XM WX Satellite Weather. Additional software is also provided for the MFD that enables display of NEXRAD on the Map page as well as METAR’s on both the Trip and Nrst pages. XM satellites broadcast weather for the contiguous U.S. on a continuous basis with a refresh every 6 minutes so weather information is always current. Lightning information is included and displayed along with NEXRAD on the MFD. An XM WX Satellite Weather subscription costs $50 per month and is available from XM Radio. Columbia customers receive the first year at no charge and are then billed by XM. E-Cast™ On Demand Weather and Messaging The E-Cast option is provided by Avidyne and provides the antenna and receiver necessary for two-way communications with the ORBCOMM satellites. E-Cast weather information may be obtained on a pay-as-you-go basis, rather than a monthly subscription. In addition, Flight Track and Text Messaging are available through the Avidyne FlightCenter at http://www.myAvidyne.com/. E-Plates™ Electronic Approach Plates* E-Plates provides the capability of displaying Jeppesen approach plates, departures, arrivals and airport diagrams in full-screen mode on the Chart page of the MFD. Jeppesen offers a subscription service known as JeppView (see http://www.jeppesen.com/) that provides coverage on a worldwide basis. Subscriptions may be selected by region or sub-region which allows the purchase of only the required area. In flight, approach plates may be viewed full-screen in identical format to the paper plates. Then, at the pilot’s discretion, a variety of views are available which enlarge the overview portrayal and include various other portions of the approach plate. When actually flying the approach, the aircraft appears directly on the overview depiction until landing at which time the view switches to the airport diagram, if available, for that airport. * E-Plates for G1000 coming soon. Garmin GTX™ 330 Mode S Digital Transponder In addition to the capabilities of the standard GTX 327, the GTX 330 is a Mode S, IFR-certified transponder with datalink capability, including local traffic updates where available. This provides for the reception of FAA Traffic Information Services (TIS), including location, direction, altitude, and climb/descent information of nearby aircraft, displayed on the MFD. The result is improved communication between aircraft and air traffic control (ATC), providing pilots with greater traffic awareness in busy terminal areas. T-Watch™ Traffic Advisory System (TAS) The T-Watch Traffic Advisory System warns of a potential collision by calculating range, bearing, and altitude of other aircraft relative to the host aircraft. The Ryan 9900BX system is designed with top and bottom patented directional antennas providing an enhanced traffic awareness up to twenty miles. The patented antenna system assures optimal reception with minimal interference from the Columbia airframe. T-Watch is engineered with Audible Position Alert that annunciates an alert when a traffic threat is detected: "Traffic! One O'clock high! Two miles!" T-Watch displays traffic on the MFD in full color utilizing TCAS symbology. E-PROX+™ Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS-B) E-Prox+™ is always paying attention to terrain and obstacle hazards - even if you aren't. This system complements the features of E-Prox graphical terrain awareness capabilities with the addition aural annunciation, warnings and commands. E-Prox+ is always active and will generate audible warnings as required regardless of what feature is being displayed on the MFD. E-Prox+ also incorporates many Class A TAWS features including indication of flight into terrain when not in a landing configuration and indication of excessive downward deviation from an ILS. Speed Brakes A valuable asset for a high-performance aircraft, Speed Brakes can be deployed at any speed. This translates into flexibility that can be applied to both descents from cruise altitude as well as approach-to-landing. The ability to apply Speed Brakes during rapid descents can be a critical factor in avoiding shock-cooling of the engine that could occur from chopping power to lose altitude. Speed Brakes can help the pilot quickly lose altitude without increasing speed. Hot Prop Our conventional and proven electro-thermal propeller de-icing system utilizes a standard prop timer with an Ice Shield prop resistance heater and all respective hardware. Activation is via a push-button switch that illuminates when the system is in operation. E-Vade™ Airframe Anti-Ice System Heat provides the most reliable method for preventing ice accumulation on an airframe from unexpected encounters with inadvertent icing. A dedicated 100 Amp alternator provides up to 7,500 watts of heat to a graphite foil laminate applied to the leading edge of the wing and horizontal stabilizer. The system has two zones of computer controlled heat application. One zone on the leading edge receives continuous heat while the "shed zone" receives heat in cycles to disband the ice so it can be aerodynamically removed. For safety, E-Vade is driven by a dedicated alternator which produces 7.5 kW, running over 100 amps at 70 volts. Mounted at the rear of the engine, this alternator provides for an “anti-ice electrical system” which is independent of the Columbia’s standard redundant dual-alternator, dual-battery system. Activation is via a push-button switch that illuminates when the system is in operation. Once activated, the computer-controlled system operates autonomously with no further pilot intervention required. This option is only available when purchased as part of the E-Vade Complete Anti-Ice package that incorporates the Hot Prop for protection from encounters with inadvertent icing. Climate Control (heat and air conditioning system) Climate Control in the Columbia is an advanced environmental system similar to those found in luxury automobiles. Given the changes in outside temperature possible during flight, the system provides the convenience of automatic switching from cooling to heating as the aircraft climbs or descends to maintain the selected cabin temperature. Thus, cabin comfort is automatically maintained as outside temperatures swing dramatically. Unlike most aircraft cooling systems, Columbia Climate Control is certified for operation during taxi, takeoff, climb and cruise; once the engine has been started, the system may be engaged and will operate automatically throughout the flight. The powerful air conditioner provides 16,000 BTU of evaporator cooling, yielding a 20° temperature reduction of a heat-soaked cabin in only 5 minutes. Heat distribution is through floor ducts; cooling vents are integrated into the cabin’s standard overhead panel with 4 individual Wemac valves and two flood vents, each of which may be directed or shut off. Overall, there are 12 cabin air outlets in the Columbia cabin to provide ideal air distribution and temperature control for each passenger. BiO2™ - Built-In Oxygen System The Columbia 400 has the capability to literally take you into thin air in a matter of minutes. The elegantly built-in support system provides a comfortable oxygen supply for up to four occupants during your high speed flights up to FL250.
