The story
Beechcraft took the King Air E90's fuselage, added the T-tail from the Super King Air 200 and fitted stronger PT6A-135 engines turning four-blade props. Built from 1979 to 1985, it's the only King Air 90 with a T-tail, and one of the rarest.
Fun fact
The F90 is the only King Air 90 that gets its own ICAO code, BE9T. Every other Model 90 files flight plans as BE9L.
