Hey guys! I wanted to let you know I just launched an "Insiders" Newsletter where once a week I'm sharing an important lesson I've learned in aviation, links to my latest content so you don't miss out, and links to any other interesting or helpful content I've found. Subscribe (it's free) at: airplaneacademy.com/insiders
I enjoyed your video. I'm the son of a pilot so when other kids went camping with their dad I was going to Osh Kosh, or visiting military bases or flying in small planes. My dad is a former Navy pilot flying C-130s with skids and jato jets in Antarctica. He also flew P-3 Orion sub hunter planes. He's a retired B777 captain and line check airman flying ORD to China. And I've flown with him in his Cessna 172 from Chicago to Austin and Daytona Beach. I always immediately connect with people that have a passion for flying. I feel very blessed to have had the opportunity to experience the joy of aviation.
I follow a lot of aviators on UA-cam. I must say, this is the best overall video I've seen in a long time! Full of great information and you made it hilarious as well. Great job sir!
I am 1000% on board with the whole SAFETY issue! So, recurring training every 3 months is right up my alley! And, as you say; make it both Fun and Challenging!!!
Thank you so much for your great UA-cam video's I'm Col Casey Bronson in East Tennessee a disabled Vietnam veteran! I just turned 72 years old last month July 27th, Sir! I've had a private pilots license sense I was 17 got it no one could love aircraft more than myself I just wanted to say I've dreamed of flying in a plane like the piper you now have? Sorry I have got to go the doctors I'll try to get back to you later I didn't look after the time? Do to being disabled I lost track of the time? Anyway god bless you and congrads on my dream plane, also may you fly many more hours and smiles! Thank you for yr videos. 😄✌️
THANK YOU for your service. Honored to have you as a viewer. East Tennessee is a beautiful part of the country. I've been to Knoxville several times and always loved it.
Just for clarification, the recently certified Epic E1000 is “fastest single turboprop” in production. Biggest difference is ROC which is rated at 4k’/min but in normal operation climbs at 3-3.2k while the TBM’s are happier 1.8-2k climb. Both awesome aircraft. As a 340A owner-pilot, I’ve tested both and just amazed at both aircraft. Haven’t decided which we’ll buy but I too loved the G3000. Epic is faster point-point and much roomier cabin & cockpit which is why we’re leaning towards that aircraft
ZomgWtfBBQ No, not at all. I’ve had our 340A, as owner-operator, since 2007. I had not flown much in 20 years, approaching retirement looking to have freedom to fly on my schedule w/partner and our dogs to visit my kids, etc. The 340A was initially intended as a transition platform to a MU2, which I flew a lot in 80’s as an AE/ME in aerospace industry. Even upon retirement in 2012, the 340A was serviceable for our needs...plus I’d spent a lot of $$ on maintenance, rehab and upgrades. We then flew w/friends in their TBM850 that holiday season and Stella, my partner, was amazed. I thought about upgrade costs and spoke w/broker to sell the 340A, then met an Epic LT owner-operator. Gorgeous aircraft, much roomier cockpit, important when you’re 6’3” w/bad right hip😉. I wasn’t too pleased w/insurance limitations for experimental aircraft. I put off upgrade, given the 340A still met our mission needs. In the last 2 years, my daughter finished college and moved to Lake Tahoe, my son is in Seattle and my partner’s family is all in New England. The thought of flying commercial during pandemic is untenable. We live nearly 90 minute drive from DEN. Given our mission, both payload, including the dogs, and distance, a fast turboprop like the TBM910 and E1000, is considerably faster than any other reasonable alternative, including the 340. It’s faster and much lower operationally than MU2. If E1000 production line starts up again by end of year, I’ll likely order E1000 for its space and speed advantage. Otherwise a TBM910 will be in our hangar within the next 12-18 months👍
Owen Lang Have you considered operational costs of KA vs SETP like TBM or Epic? Both are considerably faster and operational costs are 50% less, often more depending upon which KA you’re considering. With Textron developing their own SETP, albeit under Cessna banner, I think even they understand the impractical limitations of KA platform in a world of VLJ’s & SETP’s
I’ve never been interested in planes like this. But I watched the video anyway to burn some time. I’m glad I did. It’s a good introduction that builds my interest. Thanks for the low down on a nice high flyer.
Yes his mom died. Don't crucify me im just joking. I experienced that many years ago. Some people buy there dreams and some work for there dreams. When's this guy going to get a job and move out of dad's basement. Instead of a simulator go to the jim 😂
Bragging rights. Well to awnser from a Barron to a 3.5 his grandma or wife died. I don't want to be upsetting. Its the simple truth. Remember Jack Nicholson can you handle the truth. Rate's with make my day 😂 I have seen these types my hole life. Its called old money. I know. Insurance policy? Who knows? None of my business. But when you go to public media it becomes my business.... Quite bragging, get it. O by the way does it have power? I don't think you mentioned it... At least i didn't here it. Im glad you accomplished your dream. This was not useful knowledge. Its bragging. Wave your azz in your wifes face. Sure that will go over large(GET IT)
Awesome aircraft and great information. I'm not a pilot but I find these videos very informational to know what one goes thru to fly something like this efficiently and safely. Thank you for posting this one. Enjoy your time in the air with that beautiful beast! She's a doosey alright! Beautiful aircraft!
Great video that covered my 2 favorite private aircraft topics- the TBM and float planes. Would love some inside baseball on the cost and procedures to get into float planes, either on a commercial or hobby basis.
I absolutely LOVE the TBM, but being realistic, I’m more in the Cirrus category. Beautiful airplane and happy for the people that can afford them and enjoy them. Safe flying to all
I am not part of the aviation industry in any way and I know very little about planes, but I must say the TBM is a fascinating aircraft. It looks so good! It has a really appealing look to me. It must be a joy to own and operate.
The TBM 930 is a great ride! steveo1kinevo is another TBM channel worth a watch. Your video was great to explain the check-out process. Gives a very clear idea of what to expect in terms of training.... Well the cost, that's the hard part, but I guess if you can afford the TBM you can afford the training! Thank you.
You've got a sweet ride there. Thanks for the info. I'll check out your other videos. I agree about the seaplane rating in Alaska. I got mine there a couple years ago and will actually be releasing my next YT video about that tomorrow.
Are these typically flown by the owner, or by a hired PIC whereas the owner is some sort of fat-cat executive sitting as a PAX? Clearly a professional pilot doesn't make anywhere nearly enough to own one of these for personal use. And a millionaire executive who goes through all the loops to get the ratings to fly this... probably happens, but as more of an oddball? I wonder if Elon Musk holds some level pilot license, that would suit him well. But other billys - not so much... I doubt even Elon is PICing his Gulfstream-G650 ER though. At least not officially :-D
The cuts where you showed a TV band signal was awesome. Very informative, very fun, well-made video. You're a natural. Plus, you come off as humble, with the ability to laugh at yourself. Its also obvious that you're probably pretty funny and fun to be around. lol. Again, just a good video. (hats off).
It's videos like these ... Where I learn! I am a FS arm-Chair pilot, but DAMN! You give me more info than anyone! I am sharing your channel, and THANK YOU! For all your info, you share, "May your next landing, be you your best"!
$240 / hour in just fuel costs... operating cost per hour ballpark is usually x2 the fuel cost, so $500 / hour. IDK what you gotta be doing for a living to fly hamburger trips in this bird all by yourself :-D I think these are more in the business jet category of useage, than private aviation?
my son grew up with puters--learned to fly at 14(glider),solo the 150 at 16--flew hi performance aircraft,helicopters including turbine- his transition was a breeze--damn young dudes!!!
I have had 2 Lancair 4P with Walther turbines 724 max hp. Transition was from a piston 4P. I had no turbine training, and no problems. My turbines few at 300 and 310 kts FL 260 and apx 35 gph. I was with a friend, John Cook from Deland FL one winter night, and we were doing 340 kts TAS. Initial climb 4000 fpm. The 4P is a spectacular aircraft that got bad press from accidents that were mostly pilot error. You also need heavy right rudder on takeoff. The piston 4P almost as fast with far less fuel burn. Great plane. Too bad it ended up out of production.
exactly why most ppl end up dirt poor not long after winning,this is great buy if i won the lottery,i would invest in real estate and stuff like that to make more money,then i could but a plane like this to go from business meeting to another meeting or go on vacation with out losing it all
@@aviatorboss9978 yup. Win the lottery, turn that money into generating more money, then but what you can afford from that money. Otherwise, you'll end up bankrupt in less than 5 years.
A question to all experienced pilots: would you like an automatic right-rudder application mode for an aircraft like this? It's relatively easy to digitally compute the right rudder force based on engine RPM, manifold pressure, airspeed and/or AoA - and apply 80-90% of it. After which the pilot would need to add maybe the last 10-20% (Pilots are used to applying RIGHT rudder so it's best to undercorrect by 20% than overcorrect by 10% requiring the pilot to apply LEFT rudder which many single-engine pilots would find unnatural and confusing). Of course, any such hydraulic or pneumatic "right-rudder-helper" would come with a quick "kill-switch", which would disable it instantly and revert to fully manual rudder control. I also get the aversion to all kinds of automation and computer intervention when in comes to flight control itself.
What you are suggesting already exists. It’s called rudder trim. No electronics, hydraulics or anything complicated. It is an adjustable tab on the rudder that uses airstream preassure to push the rudder in the direction and amount that the pilot requires. Same idea as elevator trim. A large high performance plane like the TBM is equipped with trim on all three axes, pitch, roll and yaw.
I really like your Videos. You have hit on some of the biggest questions that we have when considering whether to continue to rent an airplane or to buy one. I was really seriously considering buying an airplane and now I'm even more serious about that concept. Your video has shown me that this is a doable thing, as well as that when my mission changes I realize I can still just rent the bigger plane rather than owning it. Also your videos gave me more useful information than some of the other things. For example, some pilots talk about the cost of an airplane per hour of flight time. The problem that I have with that is: first, my flight time per year is probably not the same as theirs. Second, I can't reasonably anticipate how much that's going to be in any given year. But, based on what you have given, I can see a budget clearly. Thanks again for posting.
Just down my road from me a Dr. that had a brand new private pilot certificate and an instrument rating. He must of had simulator and actual in plane flying experience. He took off from Erie Ottawa airport in Port Clinton, Oh in TBM 700 and climbed to Fl 200.He was headed to Cincinnati Lunkkin. About 2/3 of the way he made an unscheduled left hand gradual decent into the ground and died. I don’t know what ATC was saying to him. It was uncontrolled. There was plenty of farms to set it down but he went through major power lines and trees.
What you need to know about bigger and faster planes is: they are more comfortable, capable and easier to fly. Took me longer to transition to a cub than it did a twin otter or kingair
Kevin Capps Here's the truth with those tailwind trolls - They have a Phenom t-shirt and a Cessna hat from eBay. They have an old issue of Plane & Pilot magazine, 6-8 hrs on Flight Simulator and a 30 min "Discovery Flight" in a C-152, they got for a birthday present. Yet, they troll videos spouting their criticism, hoping for at least one thumbs-up, from an unsuspecting viewer, willing to acknowledge their wisdom and insight. And, they will log more "alleged hours" in video comments, than most commercial pilots log in years. In short, they are full of @#$& !
Thanks! We trained with Above Alaska Aviation in Talkeetna, AK. Not sure if they still offer training or not but it was fantastic. Read "Wager With the Wind" before you go up there. It's the Don Sheldon story who was based in Talkeetna.
spoken like a true product of today's media who emplores class warfare. Really sad that you think being rich should count against somebody. Pathetic, really.
@@DavidDavid-jb1cy Totally agree. As soon as I saw his comment, I thought of the media and our education system. Even worse are all the morons that thumbed it up.
@@dahereelgamol3529 Most likely I would give most of it away to people who are struggling. I have all the material goods I need and have reached a point where I know more money in my life is not necessary for my happiness. Prefer to help others.

Hey thanks so much for saying so! Glad it was helpful.
Yeah, you're done kind of expert.
I can't agree more. It's the capability of present well-organized information in a concise way, on top of sharing the fun with other pilots.
Nice to see you are committed to fly as professionally as you can on such a capable machine as the TBM. Good for you and have safe and fun flying!
Upgrading from my Cirrus to a TBM. Found this video very insightful.
Awesome! Congratulations!!
I am 1000% on board with the whole SAFETY issue!

How does it compare to a BE 200 ? Got my ATP rating in the BE 200 big change from the Cessna 172.
Love the snout and propeller on that bird.
I love the lines of a TBM. It would be nice to be able to afford one (and maintain it).

Agree with that last comment. That’s a cool guy. I will never fly a plane like this, but I sure enjoyed the video.
Glad that you enjoyed!
From a $30,000 plane to a $3,000,000 plane. Definitely a big move up. If I won the lottery, I would get a Beechcraft jet or a Piaggio.
TBM’s are $4M+, unless buying 2nd hand

Your video has shown me that this is a doable thing, as well as that when my mission changes I realize I can still just rent the bigger plane rather than owning it. Also your videos gave me more useful information than some of the other things. For example, some pilots talk about the cost of an airplane per hour of flight time. The problem that I have with that is: first, my flight time per year is probably not the same as theirs. Second, I can't reasonably anticipate how much that's going to be in any given year. But, based on what you have given, I can see a budget clearly. Thanks again for posting.
Thanks for your comment and I am happy you found this useful! Makes me glad.
Great vid, and loved the bloopers 😂👍
Goodness, this is almost like flying a jet. Some serious power.
Probably one of the coolest and fastest "Civilian" Turboprops ever, just that long nose is making VFR landings probably a bit more difficult.
very professional dance around the actual expense...
Loved your video's intro! It cracked me up and got my attention instantly! ;)
Good to know thanks!
Одно из самых классных видео, что я видел:)... Да, переход с поршневой СУ на турбовинтовую СУ, это шаг на новую ступень!:)... Спасибо за видео!:)...
So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
This really looks like the Caddilac of the skies.
It's Cadillac...
Only if cadillacs cost 4 million bucks. Lol
Just down my road from me a Dr. that had a brand new private pilot certificate and an instrument rating. He must of had simulator and actual in plane flying experience. He took off from Erie Ottawa airport in Port Clinton, Oh in TBM 700 and climbed to Fl 200.He was headed to Cincinnati Lunkkin. About 2/3 of the way he made an unscheduled left hand gradual decent into the ground and died. I don’t know what ATC was saying to him. It was uncontrolled. There was plenty of farms to set it down but he went through major power lines and trees.
I remember that. Crazy.
Damnnnn the guy who’s registered to that aircraft behind you has a GIGANTIC house in Fredericksburg TX
Creeper...
Well done sir.
Thank you!
What a great video keep it up.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed.
That is one hell of a plane!
What you need to know about bigger and faster planes is: they are more comfortable, capable and easier to fly. Took me longer to transition to a cub than it did a twin otter or kingair
Great video! Man that TBM looks awesome!!! 👍
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed.
Thank you for sharing.
Got my SES on the Hackensack River in NJ. Not Alaska, but it still was fun.
How cool. That is the most fun 5.7 hours in my logbook.
Try helicopters; they're even more fun.
Great video, well presented, informative, thanks!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed.
That's a beautiful, impressive aircraft you have.
Make mine red!
If I win a Lotto- I'm buying a P-38 Lightning.
Red would be awesome!
Great overview of the aircraft. Thank you for the video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
my favorite plane on MSFS2020 👍
Why is it that some people have to throw out their supposed knowledge and continue with negative comments? Just enjoy the video.
Yes.....this.
Kevin Capps Here's the truth with those tailwind trolls - They have a Phenom t-shirt and a Cessna hat from eBay. They have an old issue of Plane & Pilot magazine, 6-8 hrs on Flight Simulator and a 30 min "Discovery Flight" in a C-152, they got for a birthday present. Yet, they troll videos spouting their criticism, hoping for at least one thumbs-up, from an unsuspecting viewer, willing to acknowledge their wisdom and insight. And, they will log more "alleged hours" in video comments, than most commercial pilots log in years. In short, they are full of @#$& !
It's the only plan I fly in Microsoft Flight Sim absolutely a blast to fly
I'll have to settle for flying this in Flight Simulator! Thanks for the video.
I'm really excited they are bringing MS FS back... I played it all the time growing up.
@@AirplaneAcademy Yes I've really missed it, can't wait to fly the 930 it's like Koenigsegg had a go at making a Cessna.
@@AirplaneAcademy Just bear in mind you need a fairly good computer :)
I appreciated this content. Thanks
You're welcome! Glad you enjoyed.
My dream aircraft. I will have one someday.
Thanks for this fun video!
Sure thing!
Nice Hangar buddy.
Think i may have roomed with you back in 73? NTSU at the time, Kerr Hall?
Nice Vid man! Can you tell where did you train for this float rating? Thxx
Thanks! We trained with Above Alaska Aviation in Talkeetna, AK. Not sure if they still offer training or not but it was fantastic. Read "Wager With the Wind" before you go up there. It's the Don Sheldon story who was based in Talkeetna.
@@AirplaneAcademy Thank you, happy flying with the PT6 ;)
I know this guy must be rich, but who cares, you can just tell he is a really nice guy.
Why would being rich be a problem?
spoken like a true product of today's media who emplores class warfare. Really sad that you think being rich should count against somebody. Pathetic, really.
@@DavidDavid-jb1cy Totally agree. As soon as I saw his comment, I thought of the media and our education system. Even worse are all the morons that thumbed it up.
@AirAmerica - if someone gave you a million dollars today, what would you do with it ?
@@dahereelgamol3529 Most likely I would give most of it away to people who are struggling. I have all the material goods I need and have reached a point where I know more money in my life is not necessary for my happiness. Prefer to help others.
Sweet looking Cub in the Hanger are those 29" Bushwheels on that baby?
Thank you! And great eye - yes 29's... they also function as mini trampolines when you don't land right :)
Hey I think I met you on Jekyll island at a Mexican restaurant and you let me hold you camera!
Dream hangar right there
Great video.
Thank you!
great vid. any chance you'll be doing a follow up vid actually flying the plane? you know, walking thru avionics and whatnot....thanks!
Yeah! Here's the follow up video flying: ua-cam.com/video/Qc4qJpoOhSQ/v-deo.html
Airplane Academy sweet, thanks! Subscribed.
Awesome! Thanks so much for subscribing. Pumped to have you!
Enjoyed that. I’ve subscribed.👍
Awesome! Pumped to have you subscribe. Thank you!
Thanks for your time to explain the charastic of how a Turbo-Prop Aircraft operates.
Can you share your Turbo-Prop instructor??
