Royal Turbine Duke · BE-60T

Turbine Duke initial and recurrent pilot training

Factory-authorized training for the PT6-powered Beechcraft Duke. We travel to any airport in the USA and train you one-on-one in your own aircraft.

The only factory-authorized Turbine Duke training

PAS Flight Training is the only factory-authorized flight training company for the Royal Turbine Duke. The Duke’s stiletto profile makes it one of the most distinctive twins flying today, and the Royal Turbine conversion by Rocket Engineering, marketed through Northwest Turbine LLC, pairs its luxury cabin with legendary Pratt & Whitney PT6A turbine engines.

That combination turns the Duke into a true personal airliner, and it demands a pilot who understands both the airframe and the turbine conversion. Ken delivers ground and flight instruction tailored to your BE-60T, covering systems, performance and emergency procedures in depth.
