Daher Kodiak 900 Demo
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 ноя 2022
- The new FAA certified 900-HP Daher Kodiak 900 turboprop single combines TBM 960 and Kodiak 100 DNA into one airplane. The result is an airplane that's rugged enough to haul a hefty load in and out of tight backwoods strips, has decent cruise and climb speeds, plus it delivers a healthy level of modern tech, safety automation and cabin styling. The Kodiak 900 was introduced at AirVenture 2022 at Oshkosh and in this video, Daher Kodiak's chief demo pilot Mark Brown offers a good ground and flight demo of the airplane. Read the full report in the December 2022 issue of Aviation Consumer magazine.

Looks great, and thanks for happily saying the price. So many products they treat it as a big secret.
Very much needed, seeing the aging out of these older planes, and cracks developing in the elevator & Jackscrew areas. Beautiful looking plane.
Bad ass,I grew up on Kodiak Island Alaska,dad Jim North was lead mech that opened Kodiak airport for western airlines airport in 1967 for the connies,dad had plenty of aircraft after that so Kodiak is definatley a hearty brand,props for the brand.
I got to do the initial power plant installation for the original airplane. What a great bunch of guys. Looks great.
Thank you for sharing great aircraft to see and to use.
Excellent presentation of an outstanding aircraft.
I loved my time flying the caravan for Fedex and now I’m flying the PC 12 as a contract pilot but I really wanna fly this airplane and see how good it is in the cruise. I feel like I’m gonna get PC 12 performance but being able to fly to even shorter runways and carry even more stuff just maybe not as fast. I really wanna fly this plane!!
@gae if you want to do that, you need to look into the Fedex feeders, Baron Aviation and mountain air.
@gae no, there are not a lot of Pilatus PC 12 use for cargo, most are personal corporate aircraft, and medevac aircraft.
The main accomplishment with this design is that the PC and TBM don't have to put flaps out to allow it to keep up. 😁 It would be nice in some moderate backcountry ops, but it does still take 900 hp to get 200 kts. at altitude.
Loved the presentation and detailed info! Amazing bird!
That's a tough aircraft. Looks like a heck of a workhorse as the dhc 2 beaver now with turbo props.
The exposed hoses in the cargo pods are going to get wrecked by cargo, box them up!
I see a lot of exposed delicate parts/wires/hoses inside RV Storage Bays and think to myself, "Why are these parts exposed? They need to be protected or they are going to get smashed."
Beautiful plane.
I'm leaving a thumbs up and commenting to help the channel.
Good job.
love that color scheme
Beautiful modern aircraft. Thanks for mentioning my country, Papua New Guinean..
Number one on my list of planes to fly.
I miss my Sn #13 but this one is on my list to buy!
That is a gorgeous aircraft.
You nailed it, Mark
OMG pressure fueling, the line guys love you.
"I Love the new features and smooth airflow design of the aircraft. It is fit for the work. Good presentation." 👍
Intake looks amazing similar to the Tucano T-27/A-29
Nice paint job!
I love it! I would be concerned with the nose strut stroke length.
very nice aircraft!
Are those heater hoses in the cargo bays? If one gets pinched does it get warm enough to catch fire?
LOVE THIS PLANE...
Why? It’s a knock off caravan that is inferior
@@waholoopesorry74 opinions are like assholes, thanks for providing yours...
Not red Chinese like cessna
@@waholoopesorry74 hardly, it's 2/3 of a caravan, slotted in nicely between the 206 and 208.
If Mahindra hadn't been so stupid, the GA10 would have been the poor man's competition, but even the 100 wasn't really a competitor to the caravan.
Making a 200 kt executive version is probably more a competitor with the PC12, but with a bit more utility.
The caravan is a slow barge in comparison, 150 kts at best, really a 10 seat 172.
@@jppalm3944 cessna is owned by Textron, a Connecticut based company, and all current aircraft are built in the US.
You might be thinking of Cirrus, which is Chinese owned but US built.
Sweet!, I want one:).
Can you fuel it up regularly from a small local municipal airport?
I messed up in life. I would love to own one of those planes!
just started flight school at Brainard !
Fantástic 👍
Can the 900 be equipped with Floats? I realize the 900 is designed for speed and hauling people, so floats would pretty much cancel out it's designed purpose, but just curious if there were plans for a float equipped model.
negative
excellent!!!!1
Count on Daher to make a Bush plane with a sports car version.
I wonder how the numbers stack up vs a PC12?
yeah definitely a byproduct of the purchase of Kodiak by Daher lol. It's essentially for the wealthy enthusiast who isn't going out into the actual back country.
Essa aeronave é equipada com fadec?
Kodiac ideal para o mercado Brasil
Nice plane, wish I could afford one. = )
My first thought was, “that’s a lot of airplane”.
Take my money already! Wow!
Are these being used to fly Skydivers to 13,000 or do they prefer the Caravan, Twin Otter, King Air...?
Was this design of these planes based off the Cessna grand caravan? Beautiful plane tho
Qual seria a Razão de Planeio ?
E qual seria o Stool deste Avião' ?
E muito triste pois ninguém fornece esta informação
I thought so too
حلمي ان يكون عندي مثل هذه الطائرة ... إنها طائرة رائعة ...
Can I put the 900 on my Visa?
Está bonito amo megusta el dejaviles viverperoesesevepotente
What’s the pod for on right wing??
Weather radar
Thank you!👍🇺🇸
How does the 900 compare to a Cessna caravan .
What operator’s really want to know is, say useful load with say, two pilots and 900 pounds of fuel?. Is the ramp weight the same as landing weight? ECT ect
Wow! C'mon winning lottery ticket :)
I'd love to see one of these with retractable gear like a Cessna 210.
Retracting the gear wouldn’t improve anything and make it more expensive to maintain and insure.
@@GLEX234 A retractable gear would increase the speed of the airplane, but it would significantly increase the cost and complexity (a crazy number of people land with gear up). If they added retractable gear they might as well pressurize the plane and make it a PG-12 competitor.
If it was pressurized it would be beyond awesome.
It's an entry turbo prop designed to carry the whole family and cargo no issues and be reliable much like a suburban. If you had a pressurized cabin that essentially defeats the purpose of the long term reliability this plane is aiming for and adds significant cost.
not ideal for this platform though is it?
@@joshuapatrick682 Pressurization, auto throttle, and autoland would be great for an aircraft like this. simple to operate, super safe and even a low-time pilot could handle.
@@joshuapatrick682 Why not?
@@mikeabc5355 Don't forget FADEC ;-)
Tough decision, do i get the Kodiac 900 for 3.5M, or do I get a Nordhavn 63’ for 2M ? Hmmm😊
for me it would be the nordhavn
Buy both.
Why couldn’t they put a fadec control in this plane if the TBM planes have it?
Thats more on Pratt than Daher
$$$
It's another 500k for the computer and certification. Pratt will do it if a manufacturer will buy it, they might even be working on it.
The FAA certification program will take months to a year, even though they already have fadec on another engine model.
And reasonably priced.
LOL, your NUTS.
Idk how I got from watching death metal music videos, to this? But, it's definitely interesting.
Not much to look at on the outside but absolutely beautiful interior
Pressurized?
@david collins - came here to ask this question. Good lookin' aircraft.
Non-pressurized
@@aviationconsumermagazine450 - Thank you.
SUV of aeroplanes get a luxury version… nice
Where did they put the catallactic converter? Cars have to have them why not airplanes?
It’s a turboprop for one thing .
It’s a turbine engine
And if it were a piston engine it would cause enough power loss to be a safety concern . Also the converter wouldn’t last since most piston aircraft use leaded fuel .
So people can't steal them!.😆
where did you put your brain--when you find it you will understand
I have a feeling Harrison Ford already owns one of these.
then he can land on grass instead of taxi ways lol
Like Formula 1 aero eh!
Very Sweet Plane for that Price there better be some Carbon Fiber in Her.
Me want
If I was a multi millionaire this is the land I would own
When you buy one do you get a hat ?
Could someone learn to fly in the Kodiak? Someone nee who has flown maybe 20/30 hrs ...
Countless hours, and years? That's funny.
So it’s a Lamborghini SUV
Except much quicker and faster. And range, range, range.
Midget Caravan

Still a beautiful aircraft, but it looks goofy AF with those wheel pants on.
Goofy looking? Goofy looking is that piece of junk tiltrotor Osprey with propellers too large in diameter .
@@davidhoffman1278 that too. 😆
It's not a real bush plane. Zero STOL capability
It has the same wing that the 100 and more power. What mekes you think that is not STOL. The only difference as I understand is the tires that affect the type of surface that you can operate but not the take off and landing distances
@@edwinchandeck7231 I guess I think that because you still need 1000 ft of runway to takeoff and land. I have heard an interview from an Alaska bush pilot who flies the turbine beaver he said the Kodiak is a good plane but the takeoff distance is too long for the kind of flying they do. That is the basis of my thought process. It's a good plane but doesn't have the stol capability for a professional Alaskan bush pilot's mission
Ahh ok, make sense now. I guess it depends with what yo compare it to. But I don't know of another turbo prop that have better STOL performance except for the Pilatus PC6 and is comparable to the Tween Otter which is considered a good Stol airplane
@@edwinchandeck7231 check out the turbine Sherpa. It's not in production because they ran out of money but the Sherpa 650T has incredible STOL capability. But I guess it doesnt really count because it's not in production as of yet
@@edwinchandeck7231 Oh and I was talking about the DHC-3 turbine single engine otter
A typical salesman. A guy who never worked on a plane in his life. Putting those cover on the wheels cost you when you have to put on a new tire. The engine is a pain to work on being high off the ground. Almost anything up front you need a step ladder or platform. And that will cost you more. And how many times did he say Kodiak 900 once was enough go back to Ford and sell cars and trucks.
needs fadec :))
10 of them. Wasn't 1944.
You lost me at 3d printed parts😢
Never feel sorry for anyone that owns an airplane.
What's that supposed to mean? Like complaining and saying woe-is-me better than making more of yourself I take it?
Anyone who Owns a plane or boat, in my opinion, has more money, than brains.
The only ones who may object, are those that Own a plane or boat. . . .
@@fjb4932 go sit for the written exam to become a pilot and tell me how it goes. People who say things like you don't have either. You gotta have brains to make enough money to buy a plane so again, you're at a loss either way you decide to stop talking and start doing
Single engine= death trap
yeah... at least you wont die broke
you have a better chance of getting laid than a PT-6 failing
