With European skies now opened to commercial operations with pressurized single-engine turboprop aircraft, Daher is using its presence at this week\u2019s France Air Expo Lyon event to highlight the TBM aircraft family for fast and efficient air taxi service.<\/p>\n
France Air Expo Lyon is the only gathering of its type in France devoted to general aviation, running from today through June 10 at Lyon-Bron Airport. For Daher\u2019s participation in this exhibition, the company is presenting the TBM 910 \u2013 the latest member in the TBM family of very fast turboprop business aircraft.<\/p>\n
Daher also welcomes its customer, VOLDIRECT, Europe\u2019s first commercial operator of the TBM \u2013 which has opened a new base at Lyon-Bron Airport with the arrival of a second TBM 850 in its fleet.<\/p>\n
“Our new TBM 910 version \u2013 as with the other TBM-series aircraft \u2013 meets the expectations of European business travelers for speed and comfort, and offers an unmatched price-to-cost ratio for Europe with the expanded approval of commercial operations using single-engine turboprop aircraft,\u201d commented Nicolas Chabbert, Senior Vice President of the Daher Airplane Business Unit. “We also are delighted to see the VOLDIRECT fleet grow with a TBM now based in Lyon, a business city par excellence.\u201d<\/p>\n
Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Caussarieu, pilot and director of VOLDIRECT, said Lyon and the Rh\u00f4ne-Alpes are situated in one of France\u2019s most dynamic regions in economic terms, and the TBM\u2019s availability at Lyon-Bron Airport will meet a demand for point-to-point regional travel.<\/p>\n
“With the arrival of a second TBM 850 in our fleet, we enable local customers to benefit from private travel at a price close to that of the airlines \u2013 but with a wider range of destinations and unmatched flexibility.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
