North Dakotan full service aviation company Fargo Jet Center has acquired two Beechcraft King Air 360 aircraft from Textron Aviation. The purchase was finalised in mid June at the 55th Paris Air Show, with the agreement taking place at the Textron Aviation Special Missions booth.

This milestone marks Fargo Jet Center's first time exhibiting at the Paris Air Show, underscoring the company's expanding global presence in the special missions aviation sector. The acquisition was a result of a collaborative agreement between key representatives from both organisations.

“We are thrilled to secure these two King Air 360 aircraft, which are renowned for their reliability, versatility and advanced avionics,” says Darren Hall, vice president of business development, Fargo Jet Center. “These aircraft will enable us to provide mission-ready platforms to meet the needs of our global special missions customers.”

The King Air 360 is celebrated for its enhanced cabin comfort, next-generation Collins Aerospace Pro Line Fusion avionics and proven performance in demanding missions. Fargo Jet Center's investment in these aircraft demonstrates its commitment to delivering industry-leading solutions and unparalleled customer support.

Fargo has purchased these aircraft to modify for clients' special mission projects, rather than being operated on a Part 135.
