Frequently Asked Questions — Beechcraft King Air 260

What is new in the Beechcraft King Air 260 vs the 250?
The King Air 260 (2020+) features a redesigned interior, upgraded Collins Fusion avionics with touchscreen controllers, autothrottle, digital pressurization, and IS&S ThrustSense. Performance specs (289 kts cruise, 1,580 nm range) are identical to the 250. The 260 is essentially a B200GT/250 with a modernized cockpit and cabin. At .78M average used vs .8M for a 250, you are paying for the latest avionics.
What does it cost to operate a King Air 260?
Annual budget is approximately .49M at 450 hours/year (,319/hr). Fuel burns 105 GPH (30/hr at /gal). The PT6A-52 engines have 3,600-hour TBO. Operating costs are essentially identical to the B200/250 — the 260 premium is in the purchase price, not ongoing operations. Enrollment on Pratts ESP engine program is recommended to smooth maintenance costs.
Should I buy a King Air 260 or a used B200 to save money?
A used B200 (.25-.6M) saves -5M over a King Air 260. Performance is identical. The tradeoff: older avionics (though many B200s have been retrofitted with Garmin G1000 or Pro Line Fusion), higher airframe hours, and aging interiors. For operators who prioritize modern avionics and low maintenance risk, the 260 wins. For budget-focused buyers, a well-maintained B200 with updated avionics is the smarter buy.
