Beechcraft Premier IA Model Guide
Beechcraft Premier IA · Model Guide
Overview
The Beechcraft Premier IA is a light jet with a composite fuselage and a cabin larger than most in its class. The library record lists 4 to 7 seats. The flight manual summary describes six passengers plus two crew, or seven passengers with one pilot. Power is two Williams FJ44-2A engines, with Collins Pro Line 21 avionics.
- Payload with full fuel is only 370 lbs, so expect to trade fuel for passengers on longer trips.
- Climb to 37,000 feet takes under 20 minutes. It cruises slower than some rivals; one listing cites speeds up to 450 knots.
- Check avionics status: WAAS/LPV, ADS-B and synthetic vision are Pro Line 21 upgrades. One 2009 example cites a $200K modernization.
- Compared with the original Premier 1, the 1A has a manual lift-dump handle and a revised braking linkage.
