    Having a private jet is expensive. Not so much on the purchase side, but the cost to fly and operate one is very expensive. Even with the introduction of light jets, operators are still spending north of $1000 per hour to operate these smaller jets.
    The value preposition of Turboprop aircrafts makes more sense on the cost savings. A turboprop aircraft is propeller driven, but also uses a single jet engine. And in many scenarios, these aircraft can perform just as well as light jets in their climb rate and cruise speeds. Turboprops also tend to have better capabilities than small list jets. The best part is you get it all at a fraction of the operating cost. In this video we check out 5 of the best turboprops you can buy in place of a jet.

    I love my B350! I can take full fuel of 3611lbs, 6 medical personnel, 2 patients, full wing lockers and cargo area, so about 700lbs of cargo and still be around only 15500lbs gross take off weight. Then climb to FL340 and fly 1000NM with good room for an alternate. The New Fusion aviaonis are pretty amazing and make IFR flying into 3000 foot strips in the middle of the winter a breeze. Love having the C version and the nice big cargo door / airstair.

    Slight correction on the Evo. I own one. It’s ceiling is 28K. I’ve enjoyed mine but I’ve had it on the market for over 2 years, now. There is only 1 company currently insuring them and we’re getting BENT OVER to do so. Being an experimental and with a fleet size under 80 or so, it’s annual premium is right up there with my 2007 PC-12/47. Probably one of the main reasons I’ve been unable to sell mine.

      I was going to say the same thing, you can NEVER compare an experimental to a standard category aircraft - it's insane for both insurance and maintenance as you mention. I mean they are absolutely beautiful, but so is the TBM.

    • @Heathfx5
      @Heathfx5 Год назад +1

      Probably makes more sense to register under an LLC with an umbrella liability insurance policy and forgo comprehensive coverage. Insurance prices are a joke, I got a quote for a T210 and they won’t go lower than 30k until i have 100hrs of retract time. So I decided instead to put that money toward getting my IFR rating and doing it in my instructor’s beech sierra, that was a quick way to knock out 40 hours of retract time and get an advanced rating that will also help my insurance rates.

      I can't believe the Avanti wasn't mentioned here either - speed IS pretty much what it was designed for, while (basically) sipping fuel. But yeah as a controller I'm sure you love these over the business jets and RJ's as you can easily slam-dunk a turboprop into just about anywhere without a problem. People don't realize that a slower turboprop can sometimes land QUICKER than a jet over the same leg - none of these videos ever mention that.

      some models P.180 would do 405 kts, and the 400LS routinely cruises at 325kts but could be pushed to 350kts with M-T 5 blades, but they also forgot about MU-2's that can push 315 kts with the M-Ts and 331-10's. Cessna 441 Conquest with 331-10 can also push 320 kts.

  • @bunglerat
    @bunglerat 3 года назад +30

    I recently discovered your channel & am really enjoying your content. Nice work! If I may be critical of this one video in particular, I just want to point out that, as a former airline pilot (B737 & A330), I cringe whenever I hear anyone refer to these new generation single-engine turboprops as being capable of jet speeds. My experience of "jet speed" is the ability to climb at 250 KIAS below 10,000ft, 300 KIAS above, & routinely achieve a cruise TAS of 450-470 kts (that's normal cruise, let alone max) at FL400, for example. Whilst 300 kts is plenty fast without a doubt, none of these aircraft come even close to that kind of performance - & it's all just marketing BS the sales reps like to use to sway potential buyers from a real jet. I can almost see the argument for lower operating costs as being the carrot, but on the other hand there are plenty of low-time, used light jets on the market for considerably less than, let's say, a brand new, fully optioned TBM-940 at around $5 million. If I won the lottery, I'd get myself a used Premier 1A for $2 million or less, take the $3 million I saved from what I would have spent on the TBM, & use it to offset the higher operating costs of the jet. At a typical hourly operating cost of around $1,800 p/hr, that'd buy me more than 1,600 hours of flying. If I averaged 250 hours a year, that's more than 6 years' worth of operation paid for. So when considering that the jet costs more to fly by the hour but gets you there a lot sooner, I'm not even sure that operating costs make for a solid argument. Personally, I think the lure of the single-engine turboprop is because the low-time pilot with no jet experience can step up to one a lot easier, as the training & insurance requirements are less stringent. Just my 50 cents, for what it's worth... 😎

    I've only flown light sport and trikes, but I love all niches of aviation, since I traveled by airline during most of my career, on a passenger jet or puddle jumper every ten days or so for a decade straight, tapering down as I got older.
    Your video and review of these aircraft is so well done, you present these aircraft at a good pace, and share the important things and tradeoffs to note about each one, which is true in smaller aircraft as well.
    I chose to rent aircraft, since '06 under Light Sport, I wanted to fly recreationally, and flying trikes I always rented not only the aircraft, but a CFI's time, so I could enjoy some moments with the CFI at the controls learning in a rare niche a mode of flight that has no practical purpose other than for recreation.

Got my Multi-Engine in a 1975 Model H, Piper Aztec and been looking for a good reason to add a Turboprop to my qualifications, I currently have over 1500 Incident FREE hours in the Aztec alone, which is now due for a Major Overhaul. Want to keep it and do some upgrade.

    I believe the heading should be "5 Propeller Powered Planes that fly at Jet Speed", cuz Jet planes are powered by Turbines. Great Video btw!!

      @@frealsolidusauxil5873 You're right. What I implied is that the Propeller fan is the main driving component in turboprop when compared to Jet planes where it relies completely on Turbine fan to produce thrust. So it should have been "propeller powered planes that performs similar to jet planes :)

      @@Nightblood995 Should simply be "5 Turboprop Planes..." then, since saying "prop-powered" might cause confusion with piston/radial props too.

    Whenever Cessna gets their act together, the Denali with the GE fadac controlled engine is going to be a game changer.
    The Piper Meridian M600.
    The knock on the Pilatus PC-12 is the avionics. The newest model, the PC-12NGX finally added Garmin G3000 over the Honeywell units. If you've ever flown a Garmin G1000, transiting to the G3000 isn't a problem.

    WoW, I really like that PC-12, but I'd probably go with the King Air (if I won the Lotto) for the overall everything. It sorta reminds me of a smaller DC-3.

    The PC12 is the #1 bought single turbo prop for Mexican drug Cartel on the market as of yet today. The reason is due to short take off and able to land on grass, dirt and can land on the short runways. Also known for its quick take offs even without a tarmac.
