Textron has confirmed the issuance of a Type Certificate by the FAA for its newest flagship twin turbo-prop Beechcraft King Air 360/360ER aircraft, paving the way for customer deliveries to commence in the coming weeks -- but they're going to have to wait for ANN's order until... ANN actually has the money... darn it.
Announced just last August, the Beechcraft King Air 360 demonstrates the company's commitment to ongoing product development, bringing the latest innovations to the legendary aircraft and providing added value for customers. Like many others shut out of real-live convention efforts, NBAA has announced their first-ever online business aviation trade show, the Virtual Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (VBACE), scheduled for Dec. 2-3. The big question is whether they can build an online experience that exceeds some of the lackluster aero-efforts that have been undertaken thus far. The two-day event is free for members to attend and will incorporate many of the traditional elements of NBAA's live events, including virtual exhibit booths, keynote speakers, product demonstrations, education sessions and more. FAA Boss Steve Dickson fulfilled his promise recently to pilot the Boeing 737 MAX before the Federal Aviation Administration approves the aircraft’s return to service. Dickson’s
flight took two hours and included a number of scenarios to demonstrate the proposed software and design changes to the aircraft’s automated flight control system. Dickson, along with FAA Deputy Administrator Dan Elwell, completed the new recommended pilot training for the aircraft. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
