Beechcraft King Air B200GT

In May 2007, Hawker Beechcraft announced an updated version of the B200GT during the 7th Annual European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition in Geneva. This aircraft was equipped with a new model of the PT6 engine, developed especially for it by the Canadian company Pratt and Whitney. Despite the rated power of 850 hp. (630 kW), the new PT6A-52 is capable of developing maximum power at higher altitudes, which allows for a greater improvement in the aircraft’s flight characteristics.
