I had to fly out of my small town for work several times a month. I had the choice of airlines. One had a Boeing 737 and the other had Bombardier Q400. I learned that the Bombardier was much easier and quicker than the 737. The actual flight time was only about 15 minutes slower, but the startup, loading, and egress were much faster and less stressful. Also, the legroom was better on the Q400.
Back in the late 80's/early '90's I flew quite a bit between Logan and.LaGuardia. My low budget choices were a creaking, delapidated 727 on one airline and a high-wing turboprop with 10-12 rows of 2x1 seating. Flight time was shorter with the 727 but as you said everything else was faster with the turboprop so gate-to-gate differences. The turbo prop had much more legroom than the 727 and was only slightly noisier compared to back of the 727. One weird thing: The turbo prop's seats had 'SAAB' embroidered into the upholstery so I just assumed it was a Saab aircraft. Now, 30 years later I can't find a Saab plane that matches my memory.
haha sexual harassment caught on tape . I know they are actors. I think they picked diminutive actors to make plane look bigger. Poor guy almost looked like he needed cushion . I am kind of a big guy, I was asked ever so kindly to move to the back so as to adjust the balance of the plane.

Multiple factors have to be considered before choosing between turboprops and jets. It's not just money. I see many saying they'd rather have a jet. Well, it's not going to be that safe. If a turboprop is safer and cheaper to maintain, that's 2 great reasons to have one. If they're just as comfortable and quiet as a jet nowadays that's another reason to go for a turboprop. Very interesting that turboprops can be more expensive than jets.
Appreciate the video. However, it is really important to include 2 points. Turboprops operate in icing altitudes and really suffer because of it. Second, turboprops really are slower than the specifications might suggest, because most flights have a headwind component. AND, the slower you are, the more headwinds affect you. Our PC12 often does the NY-FL run in 4.5 hours, due to headwinds. Our G600 1:59! They are not close in real world speeds, and as always, props are props and jets are jets. Make sure to consider passenger MPG when honestly comparing planes. Spending a lot of time bucking a headwind is not a fuel efficient strategy.
Excellent points...the details matter as usual. Just not to Boeing. Lucky you with the G600...tried to get some friends to buy a G550 and lease it out...the IRR was good already, but now values are up 20%...$4mn woulda been nice too. What do I know anyway. Shiny side up...!
If you were to take the initial purchase price of the TBM 940 and Vision jet and divide it by the operating cost delta, it would take 30 years for the vision jet to cost as much as the TBM up front. The TBM/VJ comparison probably only works with an older TBM.
Congratulations for your well-done and well documented video. However in your price comparison between the TBM and the Cirrus VisionJet, there is something wrong. The $4.5 million price of the TBM 940 comes with 5 years or a 1,000 flight hours maintenance contract. So to establish a fair comparizon, you should remove the $300 per hour maintenance cost.
The price difference is still massive. 10 years of just paying for fuel in the TBM vs 10 years of fuel and maintenance on the VisionJet brings them to the same cost output. In reality you would have to own the TBM for 27.5 years to come in at even costs with the VisionJet and then you would be saving 60K per year there after. $1,800,000 difference - 2.5 x $120,000 = $1,500,000 difference after 2.5 years then $1,500,000 / $60,000 = 25 years + 2.5 years = 27.5 years and $0 difference. 2.5 years (1000h end of warranty).
Awesome video! I have never thought about it like this before. Keep up the great work :D It was a little bit hard to hear your voice since the background music is so loud 🙈
4:33 - Sure, the Vision Jet can hold 7 occupants while the TBM only 6, but the TBM has a cabin class interior while the Vision Jet has forward facing seats.
Nice video. In my opinion, it's just like whether you want a nice motorbike or a basic car. I believe the experience of flying a jet is irreplaceable even if it's just a Vision Jet.
Absolutely, the experience of not having one leg being more muscular than the other is priceless 😂. A1 sky raider joke there. Jokes aside I imagine it’s so much more like how we imagine the feeling of flying like a bird vs controlling a flying machine, due to the lack of prop torque.
Do you think that maybe the word " better " can be replaced with "efficient"? I do not think the prop is better but I do feel it is more economical, maintenance friendly and more importantly you access to more fields to land on.
Maintenance friendly in the sense that many light turboprops have one engine while most light jets have two. A jet is simpler than a turbo prop. Same basic power plant but no prop or reduction gear hanging off the front.
Any turbine engine is more efficient at higher altitudes, not just jets. I flew a Caravan and Pilatus PC-12 for a charter company years ago and love props.
The Italian Piaggio Avanti Evo 120 twin turboprop is my favorite. It is superior in EVERY category and it looks gorgeous. The $7.5M price tag is worth it.
@will swift - See: Avanti Evo - retuned (lower rpm) engines…and “scimitar” props… but neither of those can be heard from the inside! And at FL410… does it really matter?
For most people, props are better, but for most of the people that need a private plane, it is never the best choice. Here's the issue with speed: these small planes can be used for transporting people that make thousands of dollars per hour, so a 1 hour difference means a lot in these cases. So the issue of cost of fuel doesn't really matter in that context. A lot of the flights are fairly short; NY to DC, Denver to LA, Chicago to NY.
The Avanti originally was a joint project between Piaggio and Learjet. The americans wanted to enter the then new turboprop trend, finally pulled out leaving the project to the italians.
I love the Piaggio Avanti P.180 EVO, but it's a rare turboprop that will cruise at 400 knots and FL 400. Also, most turboprops don't climb as fast as jets to cruise altitude, P.180 included. Also, the forward speed (groundspeed) of most turboprops during the climb is not as fast as a jet, which reduces the useful range, P.180 included.
I much prefer a light jet. The prop noise really wears on me. It simply can't be attenuated. The extra time saved may not be a big deal if you are looking at only one flight but if a light jet is employed full time throughout the day it means more flights can be made throughout the day. I hired on to a company in 2011, 250 employees, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. It had purchased a 9 seat Cessna Citation a year prior to ferry employees to jobsites and meetings. The company was in the oil & gas business so it flew to Houston everyday in the morning and then usually to a jobsite somewhere in the southern USA and then returned to Tulsa. Then it made an afternoon trip which was usually longer in nature to the east coast, west coast or North Dakota oil/gas production areas. If time was available it often then made a quick Houston run in the evening. A prop plane could not have executed this work load in the time alotted! The business owner was a shrewd businessman and had purchased this plane for a little over $1million. Millions less than normal. I'm certain that in the past 11 years that plane has more flight hours than any other Citation in existence. It was flying all the time. It saved the company boatloads of money not only in plane tickets and hotel rooms but work days not lost in the airports. A stateside job that would have cost three man days now only cost a single day. If we kept the plane full, and we always did, this added up to enormous savings. Not only that if a customer called in the USA, we could have someone there that evening at the latest. So our service department saw a large sales increase as customers knew our technician would be there that day. Plus, they would only get billed for one day of service, not three with two of them being for travel. Yes we billed for air travel but it was a very reasonable flat rate if I remember correctly.
Piaggio Avanti Evo - prop noise attenuated! Low rpm pt6 with scimitar pusher prop… “jet like” cabin noise levels… 40% less op./maint./pilot training costs… use the money saved to buy a new car and a cruise for the family around the Mediterranean - every year!
Are you the pilot or the passenger? Are you in a hurry or do you just love to fly? What's your budget? Personally I love to fly and always in a hurry. A surplus Northrop T-38 works just fine!
They definitely work, but those bad boys burn fuel like you read about. What’s that? You had 3906lbs of fuel at the beginning of the sortie? Be a shame if something... happened to it... in 0.9 to 1.3 hours... lol

I don't get how you showed the tbm stats right next to the vision stats side by side, and tbm had best everything, double the range and all BUT then you proceeded to say - "if you need to cover long distances, light jet would be the way to go, if you need to go short distances, turbo prop is the way to go". (But that makes no sense saying how the tbm goes double the distance at 2000nm and vision goes 1k.....). Doesn't matter any sense. Love the channel though. Personally I'd go for the turbo prop always over jet. The Piaggio Avanti Evo and Pilatus PC12 NGX are my dream airplanes ❤

Am I the only one that thinks turbo prop planes just look so good. Jets look good too but I just think prop looks better. I also love the sound when I fly in them.
Back in the day, Eastern Airlines Electras were beating American Airlines 707s on the New Your to Miami run. The Electras were only climbing to 5,000 feet while the 707s climbed to 30,000 feet. The stage length was such that the 707s faster cruise was defeated by the extra time spent in climb and descent. Also, because the Electras were so low, they didn't get stacked in a holding pattern and because they didn't need a long runway, they were often vectored in with the General Aviation traffic. 5,000 feet is NOT above the weather. So, if the sailplane guys were happy, the Electra passengers spent most of the flight strapped to their seats. A lot of business class passengers willingly traded a few bumps for shorter flight times.
Bombardier Dash8, current version Q400 but Q300 and Q200 similar size and range. Of course the massive Antonov AN22 is the TP cargo behemoth of the skies. There’s also the Airbus Atlas, MD C133 and Boeing Globemaster.
@@eliudm472 😂 😂😂 The Hindenburg was double deck canopy w/at least 40 suites plus a formal dining room and a cargo bay. PC12 & the Cessna Denali are modern SETP aircraft certain to lead KingAirs, MU2’s, C425/441 and Cheyenne’s into obsolescence. It’s cargo limit, both volume & mass is not comparable to the legendary dirigible.
Piper M600 SLS, Diamond DA-62, Velocity V-Twin are personal aircrafts to be on considerations due to their impressive range 2500-3000km at more affordable costs🛫🤓
Also, do you really think that those three young people at the very beginning of the video are actually having a conversation about turboprops and jets?
Turboprops fly below 30,000ft around the storms while jets can fly above the weather. I've spend a lot of hours flying in and out of cloud at 25,000ft wishing I could go higher
Why are we talking about shorter take-off? Is this still pitch related? Like you can spin up a ducted fan and a propeller, but on a propeller you can reduce pitch and spin it up even more and fill the "gaps" between the blades? Like a wind turbine which only needs 3 blades to harvest all the wind energy by spinning very fast.
nothing beats the king air ,nothing--our flights to mexico gives us great time to hang out with the family,grand kids fall asleep in our chairs resting in my arms,
This makes the airplane that was my first paid jet job look like a piece of junk, but I'll always love the Westwind 2 I was lucky enough to copilot . Now I see them for sale for $300, 000. The owner flown single pilot small jets being produced are wonderful and they are reported to be easy to fly. That would be a great way to go these days.
Just googled that aircraft. Cool looking plane but strange design with the mid level wing. I imagine the center spar takes up space that could've have been used for the cabin if its had a low wing.
@@bobwilson758 maybe I'm just fly older props, but I find them louder and they vibrate more than Jets. It's interesting to hear someone say that they're just as comfortable.
But from a buyers point of view, the initial cost of Daher TBM turboprop is too much and it will take more than 30 years to be cheaper than the Cirrus Vision Jet if everything stays the same. So buying decision may include some other reasons to choose the turboprop in this match.
According to Aircraft Cost Calculator, the hourly cost of a TBM 700C2 is $821.41 at $4.25 per gallon of Jet-A. According to the AOPA, the hourly cost of a Cirrus Vision SF50 is $661.63. Additionally, without anything but your word, you say that turboprops are as comfortable as jets. I've never been in a turboprop that was as quiet as a VLJ, nor have I been in a turboprop that was as smooth as a VLJ. If someone invents a turboprop engine and propeller combo that don't induce vibration, I want to experience it.
It's not about which is better overall, but which is better suited to the specific mission requirement. The common 'sales pitch' that new generation single-engine turboprops (e.g., TBM-940) offer jet-like performance is just complete 🐂💩. My experience of jet performance is climbing out at 250 knots indicated airspeed up to 10,000ft before accelerating to 300 knots above - & routinely achieving true airspeeds of >450 knots in the cruise. Turboprops are cheaper to operate & can typically get in & out of shorter, unimproved airstrips. That's it. However, if you want speed, range & the ability to climb above 90% of the weather, nothing beats a jet.
I guess people far from aviation sometimes believe business jets are "cooler"... Most can't tell a piston-prop from a turboprop and when they see a propeller (or two) - they immediately assume it's a "small airplane". Whereas - a private jet is a private jet. Even if the turboprop is larger, carries more, more comfortable, safer, flies further, and as shown here - can even be a bit faster.
I'm sorry for the mistake, the range of the Avanti Evo is 2,795 km or 1800NM. And not 2,795NM

I love how you have people standing up and walking around in a turboprop. There aren't any turboprops you can do that in.
Avanti
I want Mike Patey Turboprop Lancair Legacyyy. That thing is a bullet!!
1:32 man, nice catch :D Surely there is something out there that can't be seen from the other window lol
And grabbing the chick also helps pointing her to the right direction
You should have used the high speed cruise for fuel burn comparisons for the TBM.
Great video! I'm curious, what is your first language? I felt like I heard a couple accents in here (including southern U.S.A.), but not sure!
My first language is Igbo, spoken in West Africa...
Please what's your opinion on my voiceover?
What do you think I should improve?
@@Dwaynesaviation I think it's pretty interesting. I heard a bit of a Southern US accent too and I'm from that region. No problems understanding you or anything and your grammar was perfect. It's just the accent is different from any other I've heard. I don't see many youtubers from Africa. Keep up the good work.
@@Dwaynesaviation Russian
@@incubus_the_man I've came across a few youtube people from Big Africa! You just have to search a few things and RUclips will open up recommend videos sometimes. Or try to suppress what you see and recommend something else. Mostly what I've seen in the fly world is South Africa. Other parts are youtubers talking about living, lifestyle from my views...
Just type and search crazy stuff in and let the RUclips algorithm figure it out itself🤯🤪🤡 you got to keep it working if you want to see what's really out there!
@@Dwaynesaviation your voice is perfect
Am I the only one that thinks turbo prop planes just look so good. Jets look good too but I just think prop looks better. I also love the sound when I fly in them.
Back in the day, Eastern Airlines Electras were beating American Airlines 707s on the New Your to Miami run. The Electras were only climbing to 5,000 feet while the 707s climbed to 30,000 feet. The stage length was such that the 707s faster cruise was defeated by the extra time spent in climb and descent. Also, because the Electras were so low, they didn't get stacked in a holding pattern and because they didn't need a long runway, they were often vectored in with the General Aviation traffic. 5,000 feet is NOT above the weather. So, if the sailplane guys were happy, the Electra passengers spent most of the flight strapped to their seats. A lot of business class passengers willingly traded a few bumps for shorter flight times.
Mee too, the purchase decition depends on the customer necesity
Nice content but I couldn’t get used to the narration or the graphics that made me dizzy.
Where can I get the turboprop with cabin space equivalent to that of the Hindenburg?
design One. i will buy the 1st serial number produced
Go in Russia or Ukraine, you might stand a good chance with the AN-22.
PC 12Ngx
Bombardier Dash8, current version Q400 but Q300 and Q200 similar size and range. Of course the massive Antonov AN22 is the TP cargo behemoth of the skies. There’s also the Airbus Atlas, MD C133 and Boeing Globemaster.
@@eliudm472 😂 😂😂 The Hindenburg was double deck canopy w/at least 40 suites plus a formal dining room and a cargo bay.
PC12 & the Cessna Denali are modern SETP aircraft certain to lead KingAirs, MU2’s, C425/441 and Cheyenne’s into obsolescence. It’s cargo limit, both volume & mass is not comparable to the legendary dirigible.
Now... where did I put my duffel bag stuffed with hundred dollar bills? Must be around here somewhere...
Really informative video but i have to say the music is WAY too loud in comparison to your speech.
Can you lease one of those? And yes, for how much?
Turboprops are not better than "jets". It all depends on the mission.
excellent video dwayne, extremely enlightening and insightful.
disclaimer: this video was brought to you by turbo prop manufacturers
Sarcasm at it's best 😂😂😂😂
And… Daher TBM 😂
Piper M600 SLS, Diamond DA-62, Velocity V-Twin are personal aircrafts to be on considerations due to their impressive range 2500-3000km at more affordable costs🛫🤓
You should have compared the Meridian to the Vision jet, because they are much more similar in purchase cost.
Lower fuel burn than the TBM too
So the vision jet still beats the TBM except for range and runway requirements.
I love the stock video when he’s talking about a single engine turbo prop and it’s clearly a wide body business jet
Also, do you really think that those three young people at the very beginning of the video are actually having a conversation about turboprops and jets?
@mark 🤣… @ chase - actors were well proportioned but only 4’9” tall 🤣 ads are all about the smoke… and the mirrors 🙂
1:41 - Smooth move!
No mention of the cirrus CAPS system? A parachute for the entire airframe.
the final advert is so creepy!!
Flew a turboprop from Las Vegas to Phoenix and it was definitely a bumpy ride. Some of that has to do with the heat and air I'm sure.
Turboprops fly below 30,000ft around the storms while jets can fly above the weather. I've spend a lot of hours flying in and out of cloud at 25,000ft wishing I could go higher
You should look at the Epic. I would consider one now that Rick and Mike are gone and not associated with the company.
Good information. Ditch the background music.
what about DA62 from diamond aircraft?
gotta buy 2 now. will order it from wish.
In my opinion the big difference is the interior space, a jet has more. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours
@0:35 So Mike Tyson lost some weight and bought a ticket?
The mini version
What’s the name of the background music?
What plane was used at 3:20. Just curious.
Why are we talking about shorter take-off? Is this still pitch related? Like you can spin up a ducted fan and a propeller, but on a propeller you can reduce pitch and spin it up even more and fill the "gaps" between the blades? Like a wind turbine which only needs 3 blades to harvest all the wind energy by spinning very fast.
Doesnt the E1000 costs as much as a Phenom 100?
Definitely educational except the music is much to loud for this old man.
Nice! This is why I like my propeller powered jet 😎🤙
Bill Lear of Learjet fame designed the EVO. Avanti picked it up.
Oh my gosh that is my dream plane the TBM 940 Wahooooo!
nothing beats the king air ,nothing--our flights to mexico gives us great time to hang out with the family,grand kids fall asleep in our chairs resting in my arms,
People often think of "puddle jumper" experiences with badly soundproofed planes such as a Cessna Caravan, not a King Air or Pilatus.
I can do without your video music!! - Too loud - bad mix & what makes you think that it's necessary anyway?
This makes the airplane that was my first paid jet job look like a piece of junk, but I'll always love the Westwind 2 I was lucky enough to copilot . Now I see them for sale for $300, 000. The owner flown single pilot small jets being produced are wonderful and they are reported to be easy to fly. That would be a great way to go these days.
Just googled that aircraft. Cool looking plane but strange design with the mid level wing. I imagine the center spar takes up space that could've have been used for the cabin if its had a low wing.
Love the channel, don't like the stock footage intro
as soon as i hear "smash the like button" I immediately leave the video.
You are still here
@@ajarivas72 didn't finish the video. The point is obvious.
This has made me decide I want a turboprop when I can finally get my own plane
In what way are turbo props as comfortable as jets? Are you talking about cabin noise or vibration or Cruising altitude?
Apples vs oranges eh ?
@@bobwilson758 maybe I'm just fly older props, but I find them louder and they vibrate more than Jets. It's interesting to hear someone say that they're just as comfortable.
The Pilatus has such a cute face lol.
Agree and great comparison
Excellent presentation.
I'll stick to piston engines :P
What about the celery 500
I always found propeller aircraft to be more romantic.
Nice video
What’s a good 6 seater airplane for me and the boys if we wanna travel the world, I wanna get a pc12.
I like Pilatus, because i'm from Switzerland ....
But from a buyers point of view, the initial cost of Daher TBM turboprop is too much and it will take more than 30 years to be cheaper than the Cirrus Vision Jet if everything stays the same. So buying decision may include some other reasons to choose the turboprop in this match.
@ 0:29 is the same prop set everyone on insta use to pretend they are on a jet lol
Is that really 285KT in this video?
I turbo walk places, and my bicycle is named jet. I’ve made it.
Wise man is two different words not one word
According to Aircraft Cost Calculator, the hourly cost of a TBM 700C2 is $821.41 at $4.25 per gallon of Jet-A.
According to the AOPA, the hourly cost of a Cirrus Vision SF50 is $661.63.
Additionally, without anything but your word, you say that turboprops are as comfortable as jets. I've never been in a turboprop that was as quiet as a VLJ, nor have I been in a turboprop that was as smooth as a VLJ. If someone invents a turboprop engine and propeller combo that don't induce vibration, I want to experience it.
Bookmarking this video for when I win the lottery.
It's not about which is better overall, but which is better suited to the specific mission requirement. The common 'sales pitch' that new generation single-engine turboprops (e.g., TBM-940) offer jet-like performance is just complete 🐂💩. My experience of jet performance is climbing out at 250 knots indicated airspeed up to 10,000ft before accelerating to 300 knots above - & routinely achieving true airspeeds of >450 knots in the cruise. Turboprops are cheaper to operate & can typically get in & out of shorter, unimproved airstrips. That's it. However, if you want speed, range & the ability to climb above 90% of the weather, nothing beats a jet.
What " jet " powered aircraft is the real question -
nice analysis.
the music is annoying.
I guess people far from aviation sometimes believe business jets are "cooler"...
Most can't tell a piston-prop from a turboprop and when they see a propeller (or two) - they immediately assume it's a "small airplane". Whereas - a private jet is a private jet. Even if the turboprop is larger, carries more, more comfortable, safer, flies further, and as shown here - can even be a bit faster.
