Beechcraft

Industrials

Beechcraft is an American brand of civil aviation and military aircraft, headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, and owned by Textron Aviation since 2014. It began as a brand of Beech Aircraft Corporation, a manufacturer of general aviation, commercial and military aircraft that ranged from light single-engined aircraft to twin-engined turboprop transports, business jets and military trainers. Beech later became a division of Raytheon and then Hawker Beechcraft, before a bankruptcy sale turned its assets over to Textron, the parent of its cross-town Wichita rival Cessna Aircraft Company. Walter Beech, Olive Ann Beech and Ted Wells founded the business in 1932.
