At this week\u2019s International Paris Air Show, Daher is showcasing the TBM 910 \u2013 the latest member of its TBM very fast turboprop aircraft family \u2013 for use in rapid and efficient air taxi service.<\/p>\n
This focus comes after Europe\u2019s recent approval of commercial operations with pressurized single-engine turboprop aircraft in instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) and at night, reflecting the growing acceptance of such operations worldwide.<\/p>\n
“Our new TBM 910 version \u2013 as well as the other TBM-series aircraft \u2013 is seeing increased interest of commercial operators for its unmatched performance-to-cost ratio,\u201d commented Nicolas Chabbert, Senior Vice President of the Daher Airplane Business Unit. \u201cThis is opening new business opportunities beyond the well-established TBM user base of pilot-owners and corporate flight departments.\u201d<\/p>\n
He added the TBM 910 benefits from the same range and performance that have contributed to the success of Daher\u2019s TBM 900-series six-passenger pressurized single-engine turboprop aircraft, which also benefits from such technical features as the TBM e-copilot\u00ae for lower pilot workload.<\/p>\n
The main difference from the predecessor TBM 900 version is the TBM 910\u2019s new Garmin G1000 NXi all-glass integrated flight deck, which replaces the previous G1000 configuration. Garmin\u2019s G1000 NXi combines high-resolution display design with state-of-the-art processors. These improvements provide a faster boot-up and software loading, while enabling the system to manage more aviation data and maps (such as visual approach plates).<\/p>\n
Other advantages are the enhanced situational awareness and improved cockpit connectivity that allow wireless transfer of aviation databases from the Garmin Pilot app on a mobile device to the G1000 NXi system. Additionally, an enriched \u201cfeel\u201d with the flight deck\u2019s new keyboard joystick gives more accurate panning and fluid navigation on the multi-function display pages.<\/p>\n
The TBM 910 also features cabin interior enhancements with new seat shapes and additional fittings, which are identical to the high-end TBM 930 version. Additionally, the TBM 910 can accommodate the \u201cElite Privacy\u201d compartment \u2013 a quick-change option that integrates a lavatory area in the aircraft\u2019s aft fuselage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
