Operational Context

Nextant G90XT — remanufactured twin-turboprop utility aircraft

The G90XT first flew in the early 2010s as part of Nextant’s remanufacturing program. Existing King Air airframes were updated with new systems and interior refurbishments. The aircraft retains the low-wing turboprop configuration.

Powered by two General Electric H75 turboprop engines producing approximately 750 shaft horsepower each, the G90XT cruises at around 270 knots (500 km/h). Maximum takeoff weight exceeds 10,500 pounds (4,763 kg). Seating typically ranges from six to eight occupants.

The G90XT provided improved performance and reliability compared with earlier King Air variants. It appealed to operators seeking modern capability without purchasing new aircraft. Production was limited to specialized upgrade programs.
