Thanks for posting a photo, I was wondering about a plane that held that many people and was single engined.

Fox News had an “aviation expert” on earlier and he said that 17 people was a lot of people for this type airplane.

From your Wiki link:
Crew: one or two pilots
Capacity: 9 passengers standard, 6-8 executive
Looks like the expert on Fox was correct that it was overloaded.
Thanks for the link.
