Runway reality for the Beechcraft King Air 100
Published runway figures are planning context only. Suitability depends on the actual aircraft, payload, weather, field elevation and operating conditions, so the proposed airport is checked for the requested trip.

Good to know
Beechcraft King Air 100 charter questions
How much does it cost to charter a Beechcraft King Air 100?
We do not publish an estimated hourly rate for the Beechcraft King Air 100: charter pricing for this type varies too much by operator, age and configuration for a single figure to be honest. Dispatch sends a trip-specific total quote for your actual route and dates, usually after current availability is checked.
How many passengers does the Beechcraft King Air 100 carry?
8 in the normal charter layout and up to 13 in a high-density configuration. Baggage volume varies by configuration on this type — dispatch checks the actual aircraft before confirming.
How far can the Beechcraft King Air 100 fly?
1,325 nautical miles (1,525 statute miles) at a 237 kt cruise. Real range drops with headwind, full seats and hot high airports, so we plan the fuel stop rather than discover it.
Which airports can the Beechcraft King Air 100 use?
As a turboprop it typically needs about 3,500 ft of runway at mid weights. Runway suitability depends on the actual aircraft, payload, weather and field conditions, so dispatch checks the proposed airport for the requested date.
