About the Daher TBM 700

The Daher TBM series represents the pinnacle of single-engine turboprop performance, blending near-jet speed with the efficiency and operating economics of a turboprop. Originally developed as a joint venture between France's SOCATA and America's Mooney in the late 1980s, the TBM 700 entered service in 1990 and quickly established itself as the fastest single-engine turboprop in production, capable of cruising at 320 knots true airspeed at FL280. Powered by a Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-64 flat-rated to 700 shaft horsepower, the aircraft delivers a maximum operating speed of 266 knots IAS and a service ceiling of 31,000 feet, performance that places it in a class occupied by few competitors.

The TBM's pressurized cabin accommodates up to six passengers in executive comfort, while its 1,730-nautical-mile range makes it a genuine transcontinental machine for owner-pilots and corporate flight departments alike. Subsequent variants (the TBM 850, 900, 930, and 960) have progressively increased power, avionics capability, and cruise speed, with the latest 960 achieving 330-knot cruise speeds, yet all share the same ICAO designator. The type has found favor among high-net-worth individuals, air ambulance operators, and specialty mission providers who value its combination of speed, single-pilot certification, and relatively modest operating costs compared to light jets.

SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, with the largest observed operator.
