Beechcraft King Air C90B for FS2004

First released in 1964, the King Air brand managed to really start to capture the market and became a really impressive civil utility aircraft that had style, power and class all rolled into the one neat little package. As an aircraft, though, it impresses on almost every single scale making it obvious to see why it still gets used even today!

The aircraft was the first in its class to be in a continuous form of production and outsold just about every turboprop competitor that it ever came up against combined. With over 3,000 sales of the aircraft itself ever since it was first released in the first place, it's very easy to see why this aircraft was so popular once you look at its history.

Whilst it faces a bit more competition today from the Beechcraft Premier I and the Cessna Citation Mustang, this still manages to dominate the marketplace and is the go-to choice for people more than 50 years later.

The C90B was a key part of the regime, though, and was released in the early 90s as it rose to prominence and became a very important part of the future of the company. It came with various changes like four bladed propellers, making it an improved equivalent of its predecessor in the series, the C90A.
