Specification
Range is 1,720 nautical miles against a 950-mile route, comfortably nonstop with a full cabin and reserves. Cruise is 310 knots and the ceiling is 35,000 feet. Two Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-52 engines give the redundancy and the short-field performance of the larger King Airs in a smaller airframe.
Cabin
The cabin is 16 feet 8 inches with a 4-foot-9 height and a 55-cubic-foot hold, seating six to eight. It is shorter than the 350 but shares the upright stand-room feel of the line. A practical cabin for a small-to-mid group leaving Miami.
On this route
The 260 is the twin to choose when the group is mid-size and the budget is firm. The King Air 350 is the larger sibling; the faster Avanti EVO trades a little cabin for jet-like speed. The turboprop class page compares them.
