The Beechcraft Model 80 Queen Air served as the crucial stepping stone between piston-engine twin aircraft and the turboprop era, becoming the foundation for the highly successful King Air series. First flown on June 22, 1961, it was a low-wing twin-engine aircraft powered by two 380-horsepower Lycoming engines and could accommodate nine passengers. Measuring 45 feet 10½ inches in wingspan with a gross weight of 8,000 pounds, the Model 80 introduced the swept tail design that would become a Queen Air hallmark. Beechcraft Corporation manufactured 148 examples between 1962 and 1963. AviatorDB tracks 18,376 Beech aircraft currently registered in the FAA database.
