If the manufacturer insists that 95 knots is a true V1/Vr for flap zero takeoff, they are wrong. Vsi at flap zero is about 100 knots.
Vr can’t be less than stall speed, for obvious reasons.
The King Air 200 performance data needs to be revised, or the terms V1, Vr need to be dropped.
Unless it has changed in recent flight manuals, the manufacturer also seems to be confused about Vref versus Vappr.
Couple this with about the worst manufacturer checklist ever devised. Awful aeroplane.
