The reason I asked in another thread about Commutair's maintenance hangar is Nextant Aerospace (Constant is a sister company) needs room!!! 

Their new G90XT, a remanufactured/reengined King Air, is about 45 days away from its first flight. The G90XT is going to be their low-end model, with a potential conversion population of 1500 airframes. The first G90XTs will be rebuilt in Cleveland (County Airport I guess), but as volume builds Nextant expects to use other locations.

Even better, the 400XTi is now being called their mid-range model, with a high-end rebuild project still to be announced.

Nextant's rebuilt King Air is flying. See:

I can never find it listed on FlightAware, however. Would KCGF-KCGF flights normally not be listed?

Interesting news. What is the cost? They are only listed on FlightAware if they file a flight plan.

Nextant says "$2-3 million is the sweet spot." So, depending on how it's outfitted, somewhere in that range.

I'm trying to guess what their next project will be.  A Sabreliner might be too old an airframe, but it fits their concept.
