A turboprop is often the right aircraft for a Salt Lake City trip that ends somewhere without a long runway.
Beechcraft (Hawker Beechcraft / Textron Aviation) introduced the Beechcraft King Air C90GTx in 2010. It is flown by a crew of 1 to 2. The type carries 5 to 8 passengers, cruises at 270 knots, tops out at 30,000 feet, covers 1,260 nautical miles and holds 48 cubic feet of baggage. Every Beechcraft King Air C90GTx we arrange flies with an operator certified under FAR Part 135, the FAA rules for on-demand, for-hire charter.

Why the Beechcraft King Air C90GTx Fits Salt Lake City
Out of Salt Lake City these trips normally leave from Salt Lake City International Airport (KSLC/SLC), which has a tower that operates around the clock, customs landing rights for international arrivals and the longest runways in the state, with Ogden-Hinckley Airport (KOGD/OGD) covering the north end of the Wasatch Front.
A published range of 1,260 nautical miles brings Los Angeles, San Jose, Seattle and Dallas within reach of Salt Lake City, before the operator applies reserves and routing for the day.
The runway required on the day is a performance calculation the operator makes for that aircraft, at that weight, in the conditions on your date, so we confirm it with them for your specific trip.

Vetting Behind Every Trip
Every operator, aircraft, and crew goes through our internal due diligence before we present any options. Our internal standards meet or exceed what the FAA requires:
- FAR Part 135 charter operators for traditional private aircraft, or FAR Part 121 for airliner-size and group trips (or the foreign equivalent on international legs)
- Operator subscription to Wyvern and ARGUS reviewed where the operator participates.
- Pilot experience and operator incident history reviewed before we recommend an aircraft.
- Fewer than 60 brokers worldwide hold Premium Wyvern Broker Member status, and Air Charter Advisors is one of them.
