Beechcraft King Air 260 Charter

Published

The Beechcraft (Textron Aviation) King Air 260 is the mid-size twin in the King Air line — smaller than the 350i, with the same twin-engine reassurance. Two PT6A-52 engines hold 310 knots, range is 1,720 nautical miles, and the cabin seats six to eight and nine at most. New York to Miami flies nonstop in about three hours.

Specification

Range of 1,720 nautical miles covers the roughly 950-mile route nonstop with a full cabin and reserves. Cruise is 310 knots true, matching the larger 350i. The ceiling is 35,000 feet, high enough to top most Eastern Seaboard weather. Two Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-52 engines provide twin-turboprop power.

Cabin

The cabin is 16 feet 8 inches long, 4 feet 9 inches tall and 4 feet 6 inches wide — full stand-and-stretch height in a tidier footprint than the 350i. A 55-cubic-foot hold handles a group's luggage. Six to eight passengers sit in a club arrangement, nine maximum.

On this route

The 260 is the right call when you want twin engines and King Air comfort without the 350i's size, flying Westchester County Airport (HPN) to Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport (OPF). Compare it with the larger King Air 350i and the faster Piaggio Avanti EVO; the turboprop class page ranks them by cabin and speed.
