By Janice Wood · January 17, 2010 ·

King Air 350i

Hawker Beechcraft Corporation (HBC) has received FAA and European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Type Certifications for the new Beechcraft King Air 350i turboprop. Deliveries of the aircraft have begun.

The King Air 350i is the first business aircraft on the market equipped with the new Rockwell Collins Venue cabin management system (CMS). The system supports multiple Personal Entertainment Devices, including CD, DVD, Blu-ray Disc and MP3 players, Apple iPods, Sony PlayStation and Microsoft Xbox 360 gaming consoles, laptop computers, digital and video cameras, USB data-storage devices and future HDMI devices.

The 350i also features Beechcraft FlexCabin capability, which enables owners to reconfigure or remove aft club components to meet the specific needs of each mission. The updated interior includes all-new headliner, seat tailoring and tables, electrochromic window darkeners, LED lighting, increased legroom and optional seat warmers. Additionally, the King Air 350i includes an optional vanity in the aft lavatory area that incorporates a variety of toiletry storage areas, running water, automatic LED lighting and dual mirrors, and is located next to the King Air 350i’s in-flight accessible baggage area for passenger privacy.
