Royal Air Force King Air B200 Training Aircraft
King Air aircraft of 45(R) Squadron, based at RAF Cranwell, displaying the new livery.
The Beech King Air B200, the newest training aircraft in the RAF inventory, is a twin-engine turboprop monoplane, which first entered RAF service in 2004. It is used as an advanced, multi-engine pilot trainer by No 45(R) Squadron, which is part of No 3 Flying Training School based at RAF Cranwell, in Lincolnshire.
Prior to flying the King Air, students who have been streamed to fly multi-engine aircraft at the end of elementary flying training undertake survival training and personal development training to prepare them for the rigours of operational service. They then join No 45(R) Squadron, and receive an additional 30 hours training on the multi-engine lead-in (MELIN) course, flying Firefly 260 aircraft.
During the MELIN course, students are taught crew co-operation and procedural flying skills to prepare them for their advanced flying training on the King Air
