Description
Professionally crewed and maintained most all of its 9729 hr life! It will run circles around King Airs at a fraction of the cost and with more room! Performance is 285kts/75gph/21,000’/1920rpm/2000nm. You would have to pay twice the money to outperform this aircraft! Merlins are built to last! Structure is probably twice as strong as a King Air because they were built and certified under the same standards as Commuter Aircraft! Unlike Beechcraft’s with all their expensive life limited components, most everything on Merlins (except for engines and props) is based on an “On Condition” basis, which means “If It Ain’t Broke, Don’t Fix It!”. Dash 10! 5,400 TBO - Contact Ramon - 8 passenger total 9 seats!
