Beechcraft King Air 360
Two turbines and sixty years of lineage; the airplane charter fleets never retire.
What you are paying for
Sixty years of continuous production have put a King Air on nearly every FBO ramp on earth, which is exactly why charter fleets keep them: parts, pilots, and mechanics are everywhere. The 360 adds autothrottles and a lower cabin altitude to an airframe whose economics on 300 to 800 nm missions remain very hard to beat with a jet.
