VALUE KA ADDED
The XP67A will provide a 25-30 percent increase in power, which translates into improved climb and cruise performance for King Air 350ER aircraft, especially on hot days at high-altitudes. Although the PT6A-67A will produce a 400 thermodynamic SHP increase over the stock PT6A-60A, the Blackhawk engine will actually reduce the overall weight of the aircraft by about 18 pounds.
The new offering will include two factory-new Pratt & Whitney Canada (P&WC) PT6A-67A engines, new MT five-blade composite propeller
assemblies and spinners, and
a True Blue Power lithium-ion
battery. Training, support and a
five-year/2,500 hour enhanced new-
engine warranty are also included.
The XP67A engine upgrade is a key element of SNC’s Mission Enhancement Kit combined with the True Blue battery and Advent eABS anti-skid braking system.
SNC is the exclusive provider of the XP67A and Mission Enhance- ment Kit for the King Air 350ER, and will complete the installations at their network of authorized install facilities, field installations are also available.
