Buyer’s Guide & FAQ
As a global leader in light aircraft sales, AEROCOR has learned a thing or two about the Premier fleet. We know how hard it is to find up to date information on the Premier and so we’ve created a one of a kind buyer’s guide to answer all of the most frequently asked questions that we get from prospective owners. It includes detailed technical comparisons, information on the purchase process, and describes what to expect when owning and operating your first turbine aircraft.
HISTORY AND GENERAL DESCRIPTION
In 2006, Beechcraft introduced an updated version of the Premier – the Premier IA. This version incorporated a number of improvements including systems updates (such as redesigned braking and “lift dump” systems) and a redesigned cabin interior (offering a new seat design, overall improved fit / finish, and reshaped interior panels allowing for more head / shoulder room). Equipment that was previously categorized as “optional” became “standard,” such as TCAS II, EGPWS, and a 3 display EFIS configuration. The IA also offered additional avionics improvements including an IFIS 5000 and solid-state WXR-800 weather radar. The Premier IA introduced several high value upgrades to the Beechcraft 390 series while maintaining its title as the world’s fastest light jet.
