Hawker Beechcraft is exhibiting its new King Air C90GTx in the EBACE static park for the first time. The aircraft on display recently completed a demonstration tour of the eastern U.S. showing off its increased performance and efficiency. The company has delivered the first customer aircraft to Pedro Zeballos of Panama.

The King Air C90GTx, which was launched at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh last July, features an increased maximum gross weight and composite winglets yielding better fuel efficiency. The twin turboprop’s max takeoff weight is now 10,485 pounds and its maximum payload of 750 pounds is almost double that of the C90GTi, enabling the new aircraft to carry four passengers 200 nm farther than its predecessor.
