On aircraft such as Beechcraft Baron 58P

On piston aircraft like the 58P, compressed air is taken from the compressor side of the turbocharger and routed into the cabin constantly (as long as the engine is running). There is valve known as an outflow valve which regulates how much air is let out of the cabin to maintain the desired cabin pressure. The outflow valve is controlled by a pressure controller where the pilot dials in the cabin climb or descent rate they want the controller to maintain.

Mostly just like the pressurization system in a turbine aircraft, with one difference. A turbine aircraft uses bleed air from the turbine. A piston aircraft uses bleed air from the turbo charger.
This air will be either cooled or heated depending on what temperature you want in the aircraft.

Piston is an engine with 4 pistons (on a single plane) that works such as a motor vehicle purely this time you have a crankshaft that runs interior the process the engine to make the prop turn. Turbine engine is distinctive in which you have an exterior fan (those which you notice on the airplane) wherein chops the incoming air, sends it interior and compresses the air with distinctive blades. An occasion of the turbine engines are purely like the Learjets and Citations. you have the turbine-prop engines that are a mix of the two in which you will discover on King Air plane. particular pistons are extra extra decrease priced than turbines, all you lacking out is the capacity, severe fee of gas price, and complicated maintenance. turbines are extra costly to maintain through fact that they bypass to a plenty rigorous maintenance (balancing the blades, gas leaks, and etc)

Ding ding ding! cj1pluspilot *nailed* it.
Since in many ways a turbo charger is a turbine engine without the burners in the center section, cabin pressure is done pretty much the same way in both piston and turbine aircraft->Bleed air off the compression turbine! :)

CJ1 plus pilot nailed it. Give him the ten points.
I have never heard of a pressurized aircraft that didn't have a turbo or supercharger (it wouldn't be able to climb to where you would need pressurization) and you CANNOT use a vacuum/pressure pump to pressurize an aircraft. The pressure is adequate but the volume is way too low.

All pressurized piston aircraft do not have turbochargers, so a more powerful vacuum pump is used. In addition to operating the vacuum instruments, these pumps can also inflate de-icing boots.

Turbo charger! plain and simple. A few of the larger and older aircraft use a gear driven supercharger.

A "fan" sucks air from the outside into a one-way valve that leads to the cabin... when there is enough air in the cabin, this "fan" turns off... When the airplane is descending, another valve opens, this time, to release the pressure... when it is released sufficiently, the valve closes...
Its the same idea as the big airliners... these are very expensive systems however, and results can be fatal if they fail and you dont realize it...

they have masks for you to wear
in a non turbine you have probs with altitude dude
the moister in carbs are at high altitude can cause lots of unpleasant thangs to happen..so this problem ain't gonna be a problem unless you are gonna try a dumb maneuver like proposed by yourself.
