Royal Air Force King Air B200 Training Aircraft
King Air aircraft of 45(R) Squadron, based at RAF Cranwell, display their 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

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Royal Air Force King Air B200 Training Aircraft, adorned in its striking new livery. Operated by 45 (R) Squadron and stationed at RAF Cranwell, this Beech King Air B200 is the latest addition to the RAF's training aircraft fleet. Introduced into service in 2004, this twin-engine turboprop monoplane plays a crucial role as an advanced multi-engine pilot trainer. No 45 (R) Squadron forms part of No 3 Flying Training School based at RAF Cranwell in Lincolnshire. Before taking flight on the King Air, aspiring pilots who have been selected for multi-engine aircraft undergo rigorous survival and personal development training to prepare them for operational service. Once they join No 45 (R) Squadron, these students receive an additional 30 hours of comprehensive training on the multi-engine lead-in (MELIN) course using Firefly 260 aircraft. During their MELIN course, students acquire essential crew co-operation skills and procedural flying techniques that will serve them well during their advanced flying training on the King Air. This phase of their journey equips them with vital knowledge before progressing further in their aviation careers. Captured by Gordon Elias from Armed Forces, this photograph encapsulates both the beauty and significance of these remarkable training aircraft as they prepare future aviators for success within the Royal Air Force.
