Performance and cabin
GuardianJet lists range 1,480 nm, ceiling 35,000 ft, takeoff distance 3,950 ft and landing distance 2,480 ft. The cabin is 16.7 ft long, 4.5 ft wide and 4.8 ft high. The registry family (300 and 300LW) shows up to 2,070 nm, 299 kt, 6,300 kg MTOW and 15 passengers. Those are family maxima, not this variant's figures.
Common upgrades
Raisbeck dual aft body strakes raise the 300's yaw-damper-inoperative altitude from 11,000 ft to 18,500 ft. Raisbeck swept props (4-blade aluminum or 5-blade composite) carry a 6-year/4,000-hour TBO. High flotation gear doors add 8 to 12 kt. BLR winglets claim 300+ fpm more climb, 3 to 6 kt more cruise and 3.5% less fuel burn (non-certified estimates).
Maintenance and training
Both the FAA fleet document and GuardianJet cite PT6A-60A engines. The FAA fleet statement of work covers A, B, C and D scheduled inspections. A Raisbeck air/oil separator is available under STC SA00976CH. Type rating entry needs 200 flight hours with 70 PIC. Recurrent training needs 1000 total hours, 100 turbine and 250 multi-engine.
Safety notes
- Service Bulletin MTB-57-01 (5 March 2020): inspect the aft upper and lower wing bolts for a wrong 95-110025-3 washer. Replace it with 95-110025-7 within 200 flight hours.
- The bulletin lists serials FL-817 to FL-1065 and FM-53 to FM-66 for the B300 models. Check your serial number and the compliance logbook entry.
- GuardianJet's production years and fleet counts differ from the library's. Verify the aircraft's configuration and history against its records and flight manual.
