New Light-Weight King Air 250 Gets You Up and Away
Now you don't need as much runway on your private island getaway now...up up and away.
The King Air is the world's most popular business aircraft for a host of reasons, reliability, comfort and flexibility. Now the Hawker Beechcraft has introduced the King Air 250, its latest variant in the venerable twin-turboprop cabin-class line. The design has been masterfully tweaked to reduce weight, while new composite winglets enhance short-field performance. The result: The more-than 1,000 airports that were too short for older models are now available for takeoffs and landings, including your favorite real estate on your favorite private island.
A medium-range business aircraft must be able to land almost anywhere and perform flawlessly in all conditions. The King Air 250 accomplishes these tasks better than any other aircraft in its class. With the addition of composite components and a new ram air recovery system that ensures maximum power, the King Air 250 continues to build on the reputation of keeping its passengers comfortable during every trip, with as much or more room than light and medium jets.
With a spacious, handcrafted interior, the King Air 250 is remarkably versatile and comfortable. New ergonomic yokes and a standard lighted chart holder increase crew comfort, while the square-oval cabin provides passengers with generous head and shoulder room. Elegant interior touches make the King Air 250 a serious business solution with outstanding amenities to match.
Highlights:
Take off in only 2,111 feet from a sea level airport
Max range of 1,610 nautical miles
Max cruise speed of up to 310 knots
The 250 sells for $5.8 million, and deliveries start in 2011.
