About this aircraft

The Beechcraft King Air 350i is a turboprop-class aircraft — the honest workhorse for short legs and small strips — lowest hourly in private aviation, and the only class that lands where the jets cannot. Twin engine, stand-up cabin.

We source from the live market through vetted operators, so the exact tail is confirmed per trip with photos of the actual aircraft and its cabin. Where a Beechcraft King Air 350i is not positioned well for your route, we quote the closest equivalents in the same class alongside it.

The King Air 350i: a twin turboprop for short legs and rough strips

The King Air 350i is a twin-engine turboprop from Beechcraft. Its cabin is 5.94 m long, 1.37 m wide and 1.45 m high, with a private lavatory at the rear. Beechcraft certifies it for up to eleven passengers; charter layouts usually seat eight or nine.

King Air 350i: range, speed and runway

Beechcraft quotes a maximum range of 1,806 nm with standard reserves, at long-range cruise and with lighter loads. Maximum cruise is 312 kt, and it climbs to 35,000 ft.

Take-off needs about 1,006 m of runway. Beechcraft also states it can operate from unimproved dirt, gravel or grass strips. That opens fields no jet on this site can use.

Which of our routes the King Air suits

Lagos to Abuja, about 276 nm, is a natural fit for clients who prefer two engines. Paris to Nice and London to Geneva are also within comfortable range. Each takes noticeably longer than in a jet.

Successor and what that means

Beechcraft replaced the 350 with the King Air 360 and 360ER, announced in 2020. The 360 keeps the same cabin and adds digital pressurisation control. Many 350i aircraft remain in service, and quotes in this class will include both.

The King Air 350i against its class siblings

The PC-12 NGX and TBM 960 each have a single engine. The King Air is the only twin of the three, which some travel policies require. An optional large cargo door also makes it useful for bulky equipment.
