Not to rain on Jay's parade; I've got about 30 hours in King Air 200s and they're a real hoot to fly, and well mannered and easy (as long as nothing breaks...) My very first landing was at SFO, much to my terror... Yes, you might want to mention the 120 knot single engine approach speed. ;-)

I believe my quote of the evening was "Yee hah!" ;-) They're just overgrown Barons, really, with better short field performance. ;-)
