Blade Propellers begin certification flight-testing on the same King Air 350 in October, and will be completed in early November of this year.
Raisbeck Engineering and Hartzell Propeller Inc. have a long- standing relationship in developing swept-blade technology for the entire King Air family. The results of these efforts provide increased, across-the-board performance, a truly quiet environment, and stunning ramp presence.
Both versions of the newest 350 props will be on display at Raisbeck’s booth during this year’s NBAA, held November 17-19 in Las Vegas, Nevada. King Air 350 owners can place orders for the new props at the show. Deliveries begin in January 2016.
