8 Minute Flight in a TBM 850 - How to Stay Ahead of the "Very Fast Turboprop" (5C1 - SAT)

- Опубликовано: 4 июн 2024
- Hi Friends, Fellow Pilots, Enthusiasts -
We picked our beautiful TBM 850 up from C+ Annual inspection out of state, but noticed an awful squawk of the propeller paint flaking off in large chunks. The shop attempted to "dress" the prop in-house, and apparently their primer was bad... So, I must take the aircraft to our nearest service center for repair.
Come along on a VERY short flight from Boerne Stage Airfield (5C1) to San Antonio International (SAT) as I reposition the aircraft to get the propeller taken off to be sent off for refinishing/balancing. Many people focus on the long airline-style routes... and the TBM is excellent for those. You take off, climb, and throw on the autopilot. Managing automation is part of being a proficient IFR single pilot.
However, the short hops can really have you sweating bullets with much less time to plan ahead. How did I fair? Did you see any helpful tips that you like?
Thanks for watching!!

The History of Socata TBM (now Daher TBM)
The SOCATA TBM (now Daher TBM) is a family of high-performance single-engine turboprop manufactured by Daher. It was originally collaboratively developed between the American Mooney Airplane Company and French light aircraft manufacturer SOCATA. In fact, "TB" stands for Tarbes, France where Socata was located, and "M" stands for, you guessed it - Mooney!
The design of the TBM family originates from the Mooney 301, a comparatively low-powered and smaller prototype Mooney developed in the early 1980s. Following Mooney's acquisition by French owners, Mooney and SOCATA started a joint venture for the purpose of developing and manufacturing a new, enlarged turboprop design, which was designated as the TBM 700. Upon its entry onto the market in 1990, it was the first high-performance single-engine passenger/cargo aircraft to enter production.
Shortly after launch, the TBM 700 was a market success, which led to the production of multiple variants and improved models, often incorporating more powerful engines and new avionics. The TBM 850 is the production name assigned to the TBM 700N, an improved version of the aircraft powered by a single Pratt & Whitney PT6A-66D. In March 2014, an aerodynamically refined version of the TBM 700N, marketed as the TBM 900, then the 910 with standard G1000 NXi. The 930 arrived by 2016 with the G3000 flight deck, which was replaced by the 940 with autothrottles and autoland in 2019. As a crescendo in 2022, the magnificant TBM 960 has arrived, with the Fadec-controlled PT6E-66XT P&W engine (5,000 TBO). Daher TBM has become a powerhouse in business and personal aviation, around the globe with these impressively performing aircraft.
If anyone has any questions on the TBM, aircraft ownership, or purchasing your first plane (to include a high-performance pistons like a Cirrus), I'd love to hear from you, as my full time job is brokering aircraft at Mason Amelia. Feel free to reach out to me, and please subscribe, like, and share.

I’ll change it up for you, David.
Agreed, sound of engine noise much better then any music👍
Great video, but I concur I'd rather hear your radio communications.
@@alanferrell9406 thanks for watching. I’ve been using a single camera and have lacked engine sound. So, I didn’t want the video to be too bland.
My next TBM video will have the PT6 grunting!

@@LookingforHigher thanks - will be following your channel. Just finishing my EASA turbine class rating I’m the 960, great plane. UK based
Just washed and detailed a 850 today!
Pretty cool! Where are you based?
@@LookingforHigher we do mobile work, we work out of Southern Pines NC, Maxton NC and Bennettisville SC. But also travel farther.
Here if you ever need a co-pilot.
John, I absolutely will invite you along sometime in the near future. Thanks!
Great video but I’m not rockin with the music
Thank you for watching! I will get the engine sounds with a second camera. Standby!
"vlog" like frog
HAHA, is it one syllable?!
