About

The Skyservant on turbines: two PT6A-110s in place of the Lycomings, 4,050 kg take-off weight, and four fewer seats than the piston aeroplane because the certificate now counts passengers separately from crew. The cruise speed, range, ceiling and climb rate are EUROCONTROL's figures for the D28D type code rather than a certificate's: a type certificate states limits and weights, not cruise performance, and the source does not distinguish sub-variants.
