PT6A-34 engines @ 750HP/side, 4-bladed props, and C90 air intakes. 7 minutes to 14,000 feet I did a hop-and-pop load at one of the Quincy conventions due to a low cloud ceiling and had to have my goggles on before take off to make the two minute call.

DrewEckhardt 0 #85 April 10, 2007 Quoteso not all king air has PT6A-34 engines @ 750HP/side, 4-bladed props, and C90 air intakes.. King Air B90s left the factory with 3 bladed props on PT6A-20 engines rated at 550HP/side. Although all the upgraded engines' torque isn't useable at sea level the engines are still pulling strong at higher altitudes. Quote can we make Otter climb faster??? Sure. People replace the original 550HP PT6A-21 engines on slow otters with the same PT6A-34 motors on Mike Mullins King Air but those otters don't climb as fast when DZOs insist on putting 22-23 jumpers on versus just 14 in Mike's plane.
