The Beechcraft King Air 200 is a highly successful and enduring twin-turboprop aircraft that has been a workhorse in various roles since its introduction in 1974.¹ While not a "jet" in the traditional sense, its speed, range, and passenger capacity make it a popular choice for business and private travel, offering a compelling alternative to light jets, especially for shorter to medium-range flights and access to smaller airfields.²
