A continuous program of airframe and engine systems and performance upgrades were incorporated into more than 830 Model 200s that rolled off the assembly line from 1974-1981. With the introduction of the Super King Air, Beech Aircraft Corporation had demonstrated once again the company’s determination to build the best business aircraft in the world. During the next 40 years, the Model 200 gradually came to dominate the upper end of the cabin-class turboprop business aircraft market. It proved not only a successful addition to the company’s list of crowning achievements but was the most worthy King Air yet to bear the Beechcraft name. KA
Ed Phillips, now retired and living in the South, has researched and written eight books on the unique and rich aviation history that belongs to Wichita, Kan.
