N155AV Aircraft Overview
Performance Profile
The King Air 200 delivers 289-knot performance across 1,580 NM. N155AV is powered by 2x Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-42 at 850 SHP each. An operating ceiling of 31,000 feet keeps the aircraft above most weather while maintaining fuel efficiency.
Mission Profile
N155AV handles the missions where turboprop economics make sense: short legs, unpaved or short runways, and routing to airports that jets cannot reach. The King Air 200's 9-seat cabin and 1,580 NM range cover these missions efficiently.
Charter Authorization
Charter authorization is active for N155AV. This King Air 200 operates under Part 135 for regional missions. Contact The Jet Finder for scheduling and pricing.
Insider Note
In the pre-owned market, well-maintained King Air 200 airframes hold their value because demand for turboprop operations remains constant. N155AV's 1985 build year and active Part 135 status indicate revenue-service maintenance standards.
Charter & Acquisition Briefing
N155AV, a 1985 helicopter under TETON LEASING LLC, represents the vertical flight segment of aviation. Below is the operational and market context.
Fleet Position
Over 10,000 helicopters are on active U.S. registrations. FAA data shows N155AV based in POCATELLO, ID. The U.S. helicopter fleet serves EMS, offshore oil and gas, law enforcement, utility, VIP transport, and flight training. Maintenance infrastructure is extensive, with turbine helicopter service available at most major airports.
Charter Availability
N155AV is Part 135 charter authorized. Helicopter charter rates range from $1,500 to $8,000 per flight hour depending on type and configuration. VIP helicopter charter serves urban transfers (Manhattan to JFK in 8 minutes), resort access, and event transportation where ground travel times exceed 2 hours.
Market Position
As a 1985 airframe, N155AV is a classic helicopter. Pre-owned values sit at $200K to $1.5M. Classic helicopters remain operationally viable when properly maintained. Turbine engine overhaul programs provide continued support, and the large installed base ensures parts availability.
Pre-buy focus: turbine engine condition (overhaul costs range from $150,000 to $400,000 depending on engine type), transmission and gearbox status, dynamic component times, and corrosion inspection results.
Mission Profile
Helicopters serve point-to-point missions between 10 and 300 nautical miles. Manhattan heliport to Teterboro Airport in 8 minutes. Downtown Los Angeles to Van Nuys in 12 minutes. Resort to resort along coastlines with no airport required. The helicopter eliminates ground transfer time entirely.
When to Choose Something Else
Pass on helicopters if noise sensitivity matters. Helicopters produce significantly more noise than fixed-wing aircraft, and many communities restrict helicopter operations with curfews and flight path limitations. Verify local helicopter restrictions before committing to regular operations.
Ownership & Operations
Aircraft management companies handle the operational complexity of jet ownership. They provide crew, maintenance tracking, regulatory compliance, insurance, and hangar coordination. Management fees run $8,000 to $25,000 per month depending on aircraft size. For owners who fly 100 to 300 hours annually, professional management reduces risk and administrative burden while maintaining access to Part 135 charter revenue.
Pre-Purchase Considerations
Engine program enrollment significantly affects aircraft value and operating economics. Programs like Rolls-Royce CorporateCare, Pratt & Whitney Eagle Service Plan, and Honeywell MSP spread major engine costs into predictable hourly rates. Aircraft enrolled in these programs command 10 to 20% higher resale values than non-enrolled equivalents because buyers avoid the risk of unbudgeted engine overhauls.
Charter Market Context
The Jet Finder sources charter aircraft from a network of vetted Part 135 operators. We do not own aircraft. This broker model ensures clients see competitive options across multiple operators rather than being limited to a single fleet. Pricing transparency comes from comparing 3 to 5 operator quotes on every request. The client sees all options and chooses based on aircraft, price, and operator quality.
