It is a fine aircraft, King Airs have been in many uses for many years. They go back to the Queen Air, a twin piston AC. They are built like a tank, very rugged and durable, perfect if you need rough field performance. Cost of operation is substantially lower than "comparable" jets. The engines are noted for reliability.

Welcome back from your travels.  I have never flown in one, but they are
the standard by which most other turboprop people-haulers are judged.
This one was especially nicely painted, and just happened to be in the
colors of the local Community College.  So it drew special attention.

Chris Trask asked for an image of the King Air 350 aircraft and all I had at the time was the artsy sundown image, which, while nice, didn't provide much in the way of details. I looked back through my file images, and found this one, which shows more details. Please view LARGE.

I know nothing about models. I have ridden in King Airs. Most fun was when one came just to shuttle me from the airport where I flew in commercial to the place where I had business. Like a super limo pickup. :-)
