Key Takeaways:

Daher delivered its 100th TBM 960 single-engine turboprop to first-time TBM owner Kevin Kaseff, who plans to use it for business travel due to limited commercial airline service.
The TBM 960 was launched in April 2022 and is the fifth generation of Daher's TBM 900 series, which has surpassed 500 total deliveries.
The aircraft features a Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6E-66XT engine, a top cruise speed of 330 knots, advanced digital engine controls, and comprehensive safety systems including the HomeSafe emergency autoland.

Daher announced the delivery of its 100th TBM 960 single-engine turboprop this week, handing it off to first-time TBM owner Kevin Kaseff. Kaseff, who is the president of private commercial real estate investment firm Titan Real Estate Investment Group, purchased the aircraft through California-based TBM distributor Avex.

“My home base is near Santa Maria on California’s central coast, which has very limited commercial airline service, so having a personal airplane is extremely valuable as I continue to develop my business,” Kaseff said. “When I decided to upgrade from a piston-engine airplane to a high-performance aircraft, I searched the market and found that the TBM 960 was the best choice for me.”
