Conquest vs King Air 200 vs 300????
We're on the cusp of buying a King Air.
Our longest leg will be Tetorboro to Oklahoma City (1157 nm).
As far as I can tell with average winds both the King Air 200 and 300 (not 350) will just make the 5 hour leg with a reserve, but any higher than normal head wind (over 50 kts) will require a fuel stop.
Any thought?
Also....someone just threw the Conquest into the mix but it doesn't look like it has any greater range than the King Air's.
Thoughts?
And I'm curious how much range might be gained with winglets on the King Air?
