“Commuter Air Technology’s 350ME retrofit fuel tanks for the Beech King Air 300 twin turboprop enables our customers to fly their King Air from coast to coast or internationally across the Atlantic without the need to refuel,” company president Darryl Wilkerson said on Monday at NBAA 2015. Commuter Air Technology (CAT, C13305 and Indoor Static 13) designed the fuel tank STC to be used in tandem with an operational gross weight increase STC that was certified in July 2015. Wilkerson expects the fuel tank STCs to be approved in the first quarter of next year.
