The Model B100 King Air was developed to accept Garrett TPE-331 turboprop engines and provide a second source of powerplants in addition to Pratt & Whitney Canada’s PT6 series. Plans for a Garrett-powered King Air began in 1972 as part of a study to determine the feasibility of marketing a companion airplane to the 100/A100 series.
