About

The C90GT is the C90A re-engined, and the weight table does not move an ounce: 4,581 kg take-off, 15.32 m span, 1,454 litres. What changes is in the engine limits. The PT6A-135A is rated at the same 550 shaft horsepower as the PT6A-21 it replaces, but IM.A.503 allows it 805 °C between the turbines against 695, and turns the propeller at 1,900 rpm instead of 2,200 — more margin to hold rated power when it is hot and high, and a quieter aeroplane on the ramp.
