About the Beech King Air 100

The Beechcraft King Air 100 is a twin-turboprop business aircraft that became one of general aviation's most successful light corporate transports when it entered service in 1969. Built as a pressurized upgrade to the Queen Air series, the King Air 100 introduced Pratt & Whitney PT6A-28 engines producing 680 shaft horsepower each, giving it a maximum cruise speed around 248 knots and a service ceiling of 28,100 feet. The type seated six to nine passengers in executive comfort and offered true all-weather capability with full de-icing and pressurization to 5.5 psi, making it a workhorse for corporate flight departments, air ambulance operators, and small charter companies throughout the 1970s and 1980s.

Beechcraft produced the King Air 100 and its stretched A100 variant until 1984, delivering more than 600 airframes worldwide. The design proved so robust that many remain in active service today, particularly in cargo, medical evacuation, and regional charter roles across North America. Its relatively modest operating costs, excellent short-field performance, and proven PT6 reliability have kept the type competitive in markets where newer turboprops would be overkill.
