Il King Air 260 modernizza il King Air 250 con gli stessi aggiornamenti di autothrottle e pressurizzazione digitale del 360, più un cockpit Pro Line Fusion con radar meteo multi-scan. L'autonomia di 1.720 nm e la distanza di decollo di 2.110 ft lo rendono un versatile interprete delle piste corte per operazioni aziendali e con pilota-proprietario.
