"Larger" King Air craft? What the hell?

I work in aviation, I see king airs all the time. They can barely take 8 pax. How are they even slightly large?

Maybe because of the extra two passengers it changes? Heck, I dunno - I'm definitely not a pilot!

 

[alcyone]

chances are the passenger was only rated for a cessna. There is a big difference between a King Air and a Cessna.

I'm glad it worked out for the best however!

Yay for the pilot.
