In this episode of The Malibu Guru Podcast, we sit down with Patrick Turner, a pilot who recently upgraded from the Piper M600 to the King Air 200. Patrick shares what it’s really like making the leap from a single-engine turboprop to a twin-engine workhorse — from training and technology to the real-world challenges of owning and operating a larger aircraft.
We explore the decision-making process behind the upgrade, how family and business needs shaped his choice, and what lessons he’s learned about aircraft performance, safety, and pilot proficiency along the way. This conversation dives into the importance of training, the balance between automation and hands-on flying, and the rewarding experience of flying one of aviation’s most respected platforms — the King Air 200.
If you’ve ever thought about stepping up from a PA-46 or wondered whether a King Air could fit your mission, this episode offers firsthand insight from someone who’s done it.
