N46AE Aircraft Overview
Performance Profile
At 226 knots, N46AE's King Air C90 handles regional missions of 1-3 hours at a fraction of jet operating costs. The 1,260 NM range and 2x Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-21 combination makes it the workhorse of short-haul business aviation.
Mission Profile
N46AE handles the missions where turboprop economics make sense: short legs, unpaved or short runways, and routing to airports that jets cannot reach. The King Air C90's 7-seat cabin and 1,260 NM range cover these missions efficiently.
