This rather impressive and smart looking aircraft is a new King Air Avenger, and it will be operating from Culdrose Naval Base for 750 Squadron training Naval Observers. It replaced the old Jetstream 41 which were retired earlier this year
The King Air will fulfill the role left by the Jetstreams, but will increase the top speed to 350mph and its range to 2,000 miles...
Expect to see these in the skies over Cornwall (probably doing a clockwise circuit as per the original T1's) very shortly!
