ty with the King Air
Though it began commercial operations in 2018, Zeusch Aviation’s roots go back to 2010 when Dutch internet entrepreneur (and 747 captain) Con Zwinkels bought an Extra 300 aerobatic monoplane, essentially for his own use but also as a marketing tool. It was kept at Lelystad Airport. By 2013 he realised that he needed a larger aircraft for personal and corporate use. He asked the highly experienced aviation engineer and consultant, Herman van Kranenburg, to source one for him, which proved to be a Beechcraft King Air C90A, and at that time was U.S. registered as N104AJ. The aircraft was upgraded with a Garmin glass cockpit, Raisbeck Engineering four-blade propellers to
increase engine efficiency and dual aft body strakes to enhance platform stability.
