Multi-engine Aircraft Fleet

We currently offer two aircraft in the multi-engine fleet.  The Cessna 310 is a true twin airplane that seats six.  Our 310 is an R model, and has Radar and a Garmin GNS430 GPS. Also in this category is our Beechcraft King Air C90, used for charter operations and high altitude endorsements.

While the Cessna 310 is the "entry-level" twin in the Cessna line, it is not an under-powered training machine, it is a serious traveling machine.  

For more information, see the Wikipedia article about the 310.

Used for charter operations for Better Living, as well as for the High Altitude training, the C90 is a pressurized cabin class twin engine turboprop aircraft certified for flight into known icing.  It has seven passenger seats, one situated on the multi-purpose lavatory.   This plane is not available for rental.King Air C90
