Beechcraft Denali Makes Public Debut In Wisconsin
Textron Aviation presented its new single-engine turboprop – the Beechcraft Denali – at the EAA (Experimental Aircraft Association) AirVenture in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. This was the first time the public saw the aircraft, which is currently under development, in the flesh. And those planning to attend the event can view the aeroplane in question at booth number 78 until Sunday, July 30, 2023. Earlier this year, Textron Aviation confirmed the Beechcraft Denali will be equipped with the Garmin Emergency Autoland system by default.

The plane is powered by a GE Catalyst engine, which produces 1,300shp, enough to achieve cruise speeds of 285 knots. With one pilot and four passengers, the Beechcraft Denali can travel up to 1,600 nautical miles. That means it can fly from Los Angeles to Chicago, New York to Miami or London to Athens without refilling. And it can also use sustainable aviation fuel.
