I worked for a company that had a coupe of king air 350's to fly crews to different sites. First flight I went on the plane was full so I got to sit in the cockpit. For someone who flies all the time this might not be special but for me it was one unforgettable memory. The pilot was great explained things to me answered all my questions like they were the most important ones ever asked about any aircraft. still love watching the videos of king airs. Thanks for sharing this video with us.
while taxiing do you just control power by changing the propeller pitch instead of engine speed? I love seeing the King Air and I like your videos, make a new one soon!
High idle is only used for generator assisted or cross gen starts for most operations. Everything else is low idle. All it is is a movable low stop that makes the FCU input a bit higher, making N1 70% instead of 62%. Moving the power levers so N1 is 70% accomplishes the same thing.. and it changes nothing in how the engine operates at the high end. And if you have an input shaft failure it goes to a default 85% N1 regardless of condition lever (except cutoff) or power level position. High idle does make reverse more responsive on landing because the N1 doesn’t have to spool up as much, but it’s offset by carrying more thrust after you’ve gone to flight idle but before you’ve touched down. Honestly with the 350 bound by balanced fields and net takeoff flight path because of its certification and it’s very short landing distances even without reverse (even on glare ice.. we are only limited by crosswinds, not length), you’re not going into places where you really need reverse. Doing a “shot of reverse” where you reverse the prop blades and let the props spool down before N1 spools up again gives you a huge amount of stopping power at which point you can switch to brakes. Reverse is mostly a get out of jail free card or something to impress your friends with at the expense of your props. A plane like a Convair 580 or an MU-2 with a fixed shaft engine.. yeah you have to go to high idle. Not the PT6.
And reverse reaction time doesn’t matter because you’re not going into any place you can’t get out of with balanced field performance (typically about 3000+ feet vs 1500 to land) and carrying the extra thrust from high idle eliminates any advantage.
Great video, thank you. Just curious - what happened at 6:55? The video sync with the glass panels was pretty good, then at 6:55 something changed and the glass started to flicker much more; was there a change at that point you are aware of?

No not at all. You can get a single pilot exemption where your license will say strictly say yes be-300. If you work for a fractional company and require a sic, your license will say sic required.
I was watching your right hand to see how many seconds between brake release and V1, but you never took your hand off of the power levers. I guess that would keep one from walking back on you if your friction locks are loose.

Won't follow him. I notice he never answered any question posted here. He also fiddle a lot while taxing out. I am done when I leave my hanger. There is more but you get my drift. We own the 350 for a short time then went into the Citation line. I did take the 350 around the world on my first around the world trip. Took a long time. Then 7.5 times more in our Citation. Reason for the half. We puled into a FBO in Bangkok and a guy was there with a ton of question. When I told him my FF he wanted it. I have a ton of relatives living all over Europe that is the reason I flew there 15 times. Love it. I live close to LA, Calif.
@@RA76951P, Why don't you do this jerk. I know you back out. All cowards with a big mouth do. Get a second on your house, if you own one, get all the money you can, tell your friends, after all, they know you and will back you. It has to be in cash. We get an attorney to hold the money for a small fee, and I match it and I proof everything I said. Uneducated lowlifes like you will always have something to say but never back it up.
imagine paying millions for this airplane and have to listen to that prop noise for hours on end. If I could afford that airplane, then I could afford a jet. No thanks.
Malamute Aerospace this happens to be the best plane. This particular company flew shorter legs with higher pax loads and flew into shorter runways that a jet couldn’t do.
Sovereign? Well... not really. A Sovereign would be expensive to buy, expensive to operate, not significantly faster at many of the stage lengths I fly, cumbersome for what I carry, and simply unable to operate out of many of the airports I fly. I’d choose an Excel or XLS waaaay before a Sovereign. PC-24 is more like it.
Love this King! Great pilot too! Thanks for letting us hear the sound of the engines.
Glad you enjoyed!

Good for you Stan. Glad you got to do that. The 350 has been one of my favorite planes to ever fly.
Thank you for watching.
Did he have ya' read checklist items for him perchance while you were in the 'front office'...
@@rudyho3790 Nope. I just sat there like a kid in a candy shop staring at all the cool gauges and buttons.
Perfect angle of camera, beautiful this video. Thanks for sharing.
The knowledge and mastery of the technique, leads to the safety and tranquility of the flight. Congratulations!!
José Oswaldo Pedrosa well said!
Well said. That was nice flying .
The best turboprop aircraft ever made! Nice vid :)
Hands down the best! Thank you
That's why is named King Air :)
How beautiful to be able to punch holes in the clouds with a KingAir! ❤
Great video thank you! I love King Airs.
Thank you
Beautiful. I love King Air 350 very much!
Love the 350's. Great job! I hope you keep the vids coming.
Dave OBrien thank you!
I've always loved the King Air. It's great to see a vlog flying the King Air.
CMallory fun and great airplane to fly!

I fly King Air 350i and I love it!
Amazing quality! Subscribed! Hope to see more :)
docbrad262 Thank You. I'm still in the learning stages but a lot of fun.
We are seeing one hellva pilot right here !
I am an aviation geek since birth in the 50, professional videographer since the late 90s! This is amazing, stuff I would love to shoot.
Thank you for watching. Glad you enjoyed it.
Que de bons souvenirs ...!!!
What wonderfull memories !!!
Amazing! Thank you for sharing with us!
Camera angle is perfect. Cool video !!!!!!!!!!!!!
great video really awesome to see
What a beautiful machine!
A very beautiful airplane!
Simply a beautiful airplane....
Isn't the King Air 350 a two man operation? Just curious.
You can get a single pilot type.
They are all single pilot airplanes.
Most are operated two crew for legal (depending on the type of operation), contract, or insurance purposes.
while taxiing do you just control power by changing the propeller pitch instead of engine speed? I love seeing the King Air and I like your videos, make a new one soon!
FortWorth Rising it depends on the terrain but on flat taxiways I usually control the taxi speed with the prop lever.
Great video other than the 3 minutes of taxiing. Beautiful aircraft.
Looks like take-off was very quick, over a short distance.
merc340sr yes doesn't take long. Very powerful airplane.
Soooo....why not use an earlier turnoff (after first two) to shorten taxi and get that quick takeoff?🤔
@@rudyho3790because you always want to use as much of the runway as you can in case of an engine failure during the take off roll etc.
yeh...pt6, garrett mills..very reliable ...very rare fails any flight mode...(sans pilot op errors)😎👍
Good video good aircraft
The King!
you don't use braking much during taxi right? mostly ground fine?
That was a quick up, up and away....
Beautiful plane the king air!
How Much the price?
Excellent!
Thank you
How much is that airplane?
Models in the 1990’s are around 1.5 million. New models run about 5.4 million.
Did he take-off with condition levers in "low idle"?
Chuck Kirkpatrick yep!
No
Maybe he was taxiing in flight idle. I never saw him move the condition levers.
It's normal to take off with the condition at low idle. You'd only use high idle on a really short runway.
High idle is only used for generator assisted or cross gen starts for most operations.
Everything else is low idle.
All it is is a movable low stop that makes the FCU input a bit higher, making N1 70% instead of 62%. Moving the power levers so N1 is 70% accomplishes the same thing.. and it changes nothing in how the engine operates at the high end.

King Air fantastico Turboelice , is my passion of airplane
Does "HI" and/or "LOW" IDLE matter when take-off power is applied?
Only matters for reverse reaction time and generator load on the ground
And reverse reaction time doesn’t matter because you’re not going into any place you can’t get out of with balanced field performance (typically about 3000+ feet vs 1500 to land) and carrying the extra thrust from high idle eliminates any advantage.
Is he driving to the airport or taxiing for take off?
Great stuff. ATC would've made it perfect. Now, time to dust off FSX and go for a spin in my own King Air. :-D
Está filmagem ficou ótima até pensei que era eu que estava pilotando !!!

I thought all kingairs over 200 models needed a sic
No not at all. You can get a single pilot exemption where your license will say strictly say yes be-300. If you work for a fractional company and require a sic, your license will say sic required.
In the taxi on the right turns use only left engine? Greetings from Brazil!
@John Smith many thanks!
@John Smith the pilot in the video increased power to the left engine, so not just brakes.
Wokeh like 🤔👍😍
I was watching your right hand to see how many seconds between brake release and V1, but you never took your hand off of the power levers. I guess that would keep one from walking back on you if your friction locks are loose.
Yes, being single pilot on that airplane, I kept them on the power levers at all times. in a crewed environment I would not operate that way.
No Passenger inside the King Air 350
Is this Pilot flying in Bib Overalls?
