The Blackhawk XP21 Engine Upgrade   The Blackhawk XP21 is a simple, bolt-on upgrade for the King Air A90, B90 & C90 that replaces existing PT6A-20 and -20A engines with current generation PT6A-21 engines. These modern engines run cooler and produce more power at altitude than the original engines. Lower overhaul and maintenance cost, coupled with an ample supply of low- to mid-time engines, make the Blackhawk XP21 the smart choice for your King Air.

Available For: A90, B90, C90

The Blackhawk XP21 Engine Upgrade for the King Air 90 Frequently Asked Questions

What is the price?

$25,000 for the STC paperwork, flight manual supplement and installation instructions.  Please call for current engine availability and pricing.

Can I put the airplane on charter?
Yes. In fact many charter companies prefer this upgrade as a viable alternative to the full Blackhawk XP135A Engine upgrade due to cost considerations.

How much more does the upgrade weigh?
No weight change for the PT6A-21 engine.

Are there any modifications to the airframe?
Only on the older - pre 1975 King Air C90s. They require a larger exhaust duct so the cowl must be cut to allow for a larger exhaust stack. An after market exhaust stack must be purchased at an additional cost. All other aircraft require no airframe modifications.

Can my shop do the installation or does Blackhawk have to do the installation?
Blackhawk does not do installations. Although the installation is basically an engine change, we have found that you will save time if it is done at any of our approved installation facilities worldwide. They have the experience to complete it faster and with the higher exacting quality setup that we demand. See our distributor list for an installer near you.
