Daher’s TBM family of airplanes has attracted a cult following of passionate owners — nearly 800 of them and counting since the original TBM 700 emerged almost 30 years ago — for reasons that should be a mystery to no one. Distilled to their essence, the current production TBM 900 and the brand-new TBM 930 hold the distinction of being the fastest single-engine production airplanes in existence. They can operate from remarkably short runways and have the range to skip intermediate fuel stops required of lesser airplanes. Inside, the 930 is stylish and comfortable with room for six in an elegantly remodeled Elite interior that rivals those of many light jets. It’s not hyperbole to proclaim this is the best TBM yet.
The TBM 930 Is Another Daher Masterpiece
The addition of Garmin G3000 touch-screen avionics and interior improvements took this turboprop to a different level when it debuted in 2016.
Key Takeaways:
- The Daher TBM 930 is highlighted as the fastest single-engine production airplane, offering impressive speed, range, and short-field performance that rivals many light jets.
- A significant upgrade is the integration of Garmin's G3000 avionics system, featuring intuitive touchscreens and advanced safety technologies like Electronic Stability Protection (ESP), Underspeed Protection (USP), and Emergency Descent Mode (EDM).
