The SOCATA TBM is a French civil utility airplane manufactured by SOCATA (now Daher).
Summary[]
| “ | When it first took flight from Tarbes, France in 2016, the Daher TBM 930 took a spot alongside its 2-year-old family member, the TBM 900, as the world's fastest certified single-engine turboprop. Mechanically identical to the 900, the 930 features the same Pratt & Whitney PT6A-66D engine, in-house-designed winglets, redesigned air intake and five-blade Hartzell-built propeller, each component geared toward improving power, speed, aerodynamics and handling. What the 930 adds is a truly-integrated all-glass flight deck in the form of Garmin's G3000 digital avionics suite, a host of enhanced safety features, and elite interior refinements that make the TBM 930 more than an aircraft … it's a luxury flying machine. |
