Beechcraft (part of Textron Aviation) is the creator of the King Air, the most produced twin-engine turboprop in history, with over 7,600 aircraft produced since 1964. Currently in production are the King Air 260 (6-8 seats, ~3,100 km) and King Air 360ER with a range of up to 5,000 km, and the single-engine Denali is in development. The brand's niche is reliable turboprop aircraft for short and unpaved airstrips.

The King Air is considered the benchmark for survivability in the turboprop class: Pratt & Whitney PT6A engines with over 500 million operating hours, a 3,600-hour TBO, and are certified for ground-launched flights. A fleet of over 6,000 aircraft means spare parts are readily available, from the US to Central Asia, and routine maintenance is performed by any Textron service center.

More stable than most jets: a ten-year-old 350-series King Air sells for £81T4–6 million, compared to a new 360 for around £81T8.8 million—a loss significantly less than £50% over a decade. Liquidity is provided by government agencies, air ambulance services, and cargo operators, who buy used aircraft. Aircraft with a new interior and engines with up to half their lifespan sell the fastest.

The main difference is the number of engines: the King Air is twin-engine, while the PC-12 is single-engine. The King Air 260 climbs faster, is licensed for commercial night flights over difficult terrain without restrictions, and can carry up to eight passengers. The PC-12 is approximately 30% cheaper to operate and has a larger cargo door. The choice comes down to philosophy: engine redundancy versus ownership economy.

Middle class covers 4-6 hour flights: Moscow-Dubai, Almaty-Frankfurt, Astana-Beijing. The 3,900-6,200 km range allows nonstop flights from Central Asia to Europe, India, and China. The cabin allows for full standing (1.73-1.83 m), working at a desk, and a full workday—the class is chosen for its balance of range, comfort, and price.

Layouts: 8-9 seats; the Citation, Latitude, and Praetor 500 seats up to nine passengers with two pilots. Range: Citation XLS+ and PC-24 – approximately 3,900 km, Hawker 800XP/900XP – 4,600-4,900 km, Latitude – 5,280 km, Praetor 500 – a record for its class of 6,200 km. Cruising speed: 780-850 km/h. Luggage compartments of 1.3-2.3 m³ can accommodate the entire group, including skis.

Medium class adds a standing cabin to the Light class, an extra 1,000–2,000 km of range, and a full galley/buffet—but at an extra $1,500–2,500 rubles per hour. Super Medium class goes further: 6,300–7,400 km, a flat floor, and sleeping berths—and an extra $1,000–2,000 rubles per hour. Medium class is justified on 4-6 hour routes for groups of up to nine; transatlantic and large groups require Super Medium.

Class rates are $4 300–6,000 per hour. Examples: Moscow-Dubai (5 hours) - $25–35 thousand, Almaty-Istanbul (4.5 hours) - $22–30 thousand, Astana-Delhi - $20–28 thousand. The upper limit is the new Latitude and Praetor 500, the lower limit is the previous generation Hawker and Learjet 60XR: 20–25% cheaper with the same cabin, but with higher fuel consumption.
