B-1900C Numbers

[FOB]

I could use a listing of operators using B-1900C equipment. More specifically, anyone who can compare real numbers on the 1900C to what Raytheon advertises. Thanks.

Try this: http://162.58.35.241/acdatabase/acmain.htm

It's the FAA Aircraft Registry. You can look up registered owners of aircraft by type, location, etc. Might be of some help with finding who operates them.

Not entirely sure what you're looking for. FWIW, as far as subjective type specifications, our D-models pretty much go as fast as advertised, within 5 knots of book values.

Operational and flight hour costs would be ideal.

1. Mx hour per Flt hour?
2. Block fuel burn? Climb / Cruise at mid to high teens?
3. Dispatch reliabilty?
3. Known Mx issues / repetitive pilot squawks?
4. Actual payload available for 2 hour block flight with IFR reserves?
5. Shortest comfortable runway length at mtow / ldg? Summer/winter?
6. Single pilot op considerations? AP or no AP?
7. Parts availability and Raytheon support / pricing?
8. Is the 1900 operator support network functional?
9. Training center opinions? Pilot and Mech?
10. Overall satisfaction with type?
