A waste of 9 perfect parachutes. (reference to the notion of “waste of a perfectly good airplane”)

Prayers to the family.

It is but this one was from 1967.

I’m guessing there was an engine failure on takeoff.

King Air is a good plane.

Not good enough to overcome a likely weight and balance problem.

My buddy with a plane (RV9) defines a good landing as one where you get to use the plane again! XD

The King Air is a great plane. But with that people load, your weight and balance calculations are critical. I would guess that’s the issue here.
