Beechcraft Secures Largest General Aviation Propeller Aircraft Order in History, Valued at $1.4 Billion

Good to see this types of news regarding the aviation industry, but I?m still trying to figure out what Wheels Up is going to do with 105 Kings.
Um, the 350i has 55 cu ft of interior, accessible baggage space (+ wing lockers) and a separate flushable lav with sink. And it'll haul 8 pax and bags with a full load of gas. The hauling capacity beats most super-mid bizjets, if that's what you're looking for.

Yes, it's still a turboprop, so it has the image issue to overcome. But for short regional ops it's as quick as a jet and can get in and out of more places. I have no idea about Wheels up's pricing compared to the charter market. Looks like he's trying to offer a frax-like product, and attach a frax-like premium. I think it's a niche market and don't know if it will support a company, but the 350's a capable bird for the right profile.
Thats cool if you are a "1 Percenter" and bouncing along at FL220 with 8 of your closest buddies is your thing. :erm:
Now if all you do is fly back and forth to The Vinyaaahd or to go short distances, heck yea this makes sense.
Good luck to all!
Isn't the KA350 rated up to FL350?
Is it? If so under what conditions can it cruise at FL350? I don't doubt it is a capable aircraft but it is exactly what it is.

Any idea on how many former Avantair pilots have been picked up by WU? What's the mix of newhires looking like?
