AIRCRAFT SPOTLIGHT<br />
Aircraft manufacturer Beechcraft a subsidiary of Textron Aviation — launched an updated version of its successful<br />
B200 line, with its Super King Air 300, which took flight for the first time in 1983. Following its success, the<br />
company dropped the “Super” and subsequently developed updated models including the King Air 350ER and the<br />
King Air 350i. The two have since stood out as outstanding aircraft, with superior performance.<br />
The King Air 350i is a large twin turboprop aircraft, suited for<br />
two pilots and nine passengers. Its short takeoff and landing<br />
(STOL) requirements and high payload capacity are its main<br />
selling points. With a wide-range of uses, the 350i is fit for<br />
reconnaissance, remote sensing, aerial photography, geophysical<br />
exploration and other special missions. The aircraft range is<br />
3,345km (1,806nm).<br />
The King Air 350ER, an extended version of the model 300,<br />
was announced at the Paris Air Show in 2005. The updated<br />
version offers flexible, reconfigurable interiors, making it easy<br />
to accommodate the passengers, cargo, and various mission<br />
segments. In 2012, the National Aeronautics Association<br />
(NAA) and International Aviation Federation (FAI) confirmed<br />
that King Air 350ER set a flying speed record, with a maximum<br />
speed of 574 km/h.<br />
Both the King Air 350i and the King Air 350ER offer superior<br />
quality, including new standard cabins with the latest passive<br />
sound insulation and noise technology. Larger cabins, smaller fuel<br />
consumption and less running costs allow each aircraft to carry<br />
more passengers and cargo, as well as to take off and land and<br />
operate more flexibly.<br />
Beechcraft owners, including owners of the King Air 350i and the<br />
King Air 350ER, enjoy an extensive global service support network.<br />
