*Cessna 303 Crusader*
This cabin-class twin-engine piston aircraft offers seating for up to five (5) passengers. The normal seating configuration allows for a central aisle between seats, but can also be configured in a club-style seating arrangement. With a normal cruise speed of 170 knots (195 mph) at 10,000 feet, the Crusader is used on short to medium-haul flights (typically 350 to 450 statute miles). This aircraft is well-equipped with advanced avionics, including GPS mapping systems and digital weather radar, making it a versatile work-horse in most any weather situation.		Aircraft Specifications: Crew: 1/2 Passengers: Up to 5 Maximum Range: 450 Miles Cruise Speed: 170 knots / 195MPH Approximate Cost per Mile: $1.95
Beechcraft Baron 58 Foxstar
Regarded by the industry as one of the most successful twin-engine aircraft in its class, production of the Beechcraft Baron 58 has outlasted all of its competitors. The Baron features a normal cruising speed of 185 knots (215 mph) and seats five (5) passengers on flights between 350 and 450 statute miles. Typically cruising around 10,000 feet means the Baron flies above most turbulence and weather found in the lower altitudes. Its advanced weather radar and GPS technology give the aircraft the ability to comfortably handle weather at most any destination.		Aircraft Specifications: Crew: 1/2 Passengers: Up to 5 Maximum Range: 450 Miles Cruise Speed: 185 knots / 215MPH Approximate Cost per Mile: $1.95
*Cessna 421 Golden Eagle*
A larger piston-powered twin, the Cessna 421 provides an air-conditioned cabin for a maximum of seven (7) passengers. In addition to its well-equipped cabin, the 421’s cockpit features advanced Global Positioning and color weather radar – giving the flight crew the ability to maneuver through most any weather system. Cruising comfortably at typical altitudes at or above 15,000 feet and 190 knots (220 mph), this aircraft easily carries one (1) to five (5) passengers up to 500 statute miles. The slower-turning, three-bladed propellers reduce cabin noise, making longer trips more peaceful and conversation much easier. The Cessna 421 Golden Eagle is comparable in size and speed to a Beechcraft King Air 90, but is much more efficient and economical to operate, making it a favorite among pilots and passengers alike.		Aircraft Specifications: Crew: 1/2 Passengers: Up to 7 Maximum Range: 500 Miles Cruise Speed: 190 knots / 220MPH Approximate Cost per Mile: $2.40
*Fairchild/Swearingen Merlin III*
Like the Merlin II, the Merlin III was conceptualized and built according to airline standards, advancing the aircraft ahead of its competitors in terms of safety, efficiency, and comfort. The Merlin III is larger than the Beechcraft King Air 200, offering more baggage storage space, greater performance and higher cruising speed. With a pressurized cabin configured for eight (8) passengers in executive-style seating, the Merlin III cruises around 290 knots (335 mph). The aircraft is equipped with air conditioning, the latest in GPS and mapping technology and advanced weather radar, giving it the versatility to dodge most weather and rugged terrain. The Merlin III typically cruises well above most weather and turbulence at altitudes upwards of 23,000 feet. When fully loaded, the aircraft is capable of non-stop flights up to 1500 statute miles in length. Very few aircraft (including most light to medium sized jets) are capable of carrying loads comparable to the Merlin III at comparable speeds and range. This aircraft offers the comfort and convenience of a jet at a significantly lower cost.		Aircraft Specifications: Crew: 2 Passengers: Up to 8 Maximum Range: 1500 Miles Cruise Speed: 290 knots / 335MPH Approximate Cost per Mile: $3.40
