Was there an incident/accident at Injune today, possibly involving an aircraft owned by, or operated for FKG constructions?

What is a King Air 250? A 350 with High ITT, or a 200 with JATO bottles? :}

Only hearing vague talk but something happened at Injune airstrip late this morning and it may be that aircraft was involved.

It's a KA350 with a typo!:suspect:

Having said that it might be a B200 so perhaps a bet each way?:}

I do need to proof read before hitting the button:=

Check the HBC website. The B250 is a B200 with Dash 52 engines, Ramair recovery, winglets, and 4 blade composite props. If you order a new Kingair B200 today that is what you get.

Thanks Groggie:ok:

I thought it was a 350 just as a guess based on what I saw once, having winglets. I never saw it up close or paid any attention to anything written on it.

So perhaps my typo is spot on:ok:

Hope it is not too badly hurt nor anyone either.

Ooops. I owe Jabba an apology........ There is a King Air 250! :uhoh:

PT6A-52's, 850 HP, same power as the previous -41/-42 engines, max cruise 310 kts, same 12,500 pounds MTOW. Jabba, the 250 has winglets.

Be sad if they dented it at Injune?
