World's fastest single engine turboprop on display at Abu Dhabi show

Daher-Socata will present the TBM 850 at the show which takes place at the Al Bateen executive airport. It is recognised as the fastest single turboprop in the world with a maximum cruise speed of 320 KTAS (593 km/h) at 26 000 ft (7 940m).

A 850 hp engine version of the turboprop business aircraft TBM 700, known for its reliability, the TBM 850 combines the cruising speed and flying times typical of light jets with operating costs, low environmental signature, range and excellent payload of turboprop aircraft.
  “We look forward to participating in the 1st edition of the exhibition in Abu Dhabi, whose geographical location and audience make it a must-attend event for those involved in general aviation”, said Nicolas Chabbert, Director of the Aircraft Division at Daher-Socata.

“Knowing that the general aviation sector is experiencing significant growth in the Middle East, we really want to be part of this show”, he added.
