Azul Conecta recently announced the order of up to 10 Cessna Gran Caravan EX model aircraft, from North America-based business aviation manufacturer Textron Aviation.
Known for its performance in any difficult situation, the C208B can carry 9 engers on board, and can be quickly converted to transport cargo, with a capacity to carry approximately 1600 kg.
Furthermore, unlike other Grand Caravans from Azul Conecta, these are equipped with Garmin G1000 avionics, integrated into the plane's systems and the GFC700 autopilot.
The Caravan EX, a model ordered by Azul, also has PT6A-114A engines with four-bladed Hartzell propellers, a new version with 867 horsepower (shp), capable of making flights at 25000 feet possible (with oxygen bottles for the pilots and engers).
