I really like the plane. It's on my short list of planes to upgrade to, but it looks very difficult to get in and out of. You are a bigger guy like me, I would really love to see a detailed video of how you get in and out of the front of that thing. Keep the videos coming
LOL. I'm a pilot and an avid guitar player. Sweetwater is a huge guitar/music store and recording complex in Indiana. When I saw it in the title that's where I thought you were going! LOL I haven't seen too many M600's. I always wondered why they were so much less $$ than the TBM and Pilatus, not that its a bad thing! I think I know now. Is that Garmin glass? Doesn't look familiar, but could be just display choices. Thanks! Enjoyed your video! Peace --gary
thanks for watching! and I think the price difference comes from the Meridian and m500 versions and the none Emergency Autoland M600. The newer M600's with the emergency Autoland run in the 3.5 - 4 million range depending on options in todays market. I think it comes down to cost of operation at that point. It is incredibly cheaper to operate an M600 compared to the newer tbms and PC-12s. Although the new TBM960 is mouthwatering. lol
I saw this plane fly over my house going up to Denton Texas. Maybe it was you? This was the first m600 I’ve seen. The wing is very distinguished. It’s such a unfamiliar turbo prop sound. Sounds different from the usual grand caravan or tbm.
Oh the m600 with its carrying capacity beats the m500 by far. A PC12 was a little to much for our mission if anything a TBM910-940 would be a good upgrade!
@@JLAdventures15 I’m just dreaming so the PC12 fits into my dream. But the TBM 900 can easily be added. Didn’t care for the 700 as any Piper had the same or better load imo. Cool looking plane though
I'm not to sure where I see that temp you're looking at? The Meridian does not have an inside air temp gauge sadly, I'd say the cabin was always roughly about 72-75F degrees if I had to guess.
@@JLAdventures15 thanks! I was looking at the ISA below the OAT on the pilot side at 07:57. When you said that the Meridian doesn't show inside air temp I did some searching and found out that it's the International Standard Atmosphere. Do I understand correctly that ISA is used by a pilot to understand what aircraft performance they can expect at a certain ISA?
@heavyizthacrown-5842 I see you're a gaming channel, so you probably don't know much about Aviation. That's 180 indicated airspeed. Our groundspeed was about 280kts. And price isn't solely based on speed. There are many other things that come into play with price

I'm 6'1 250, there is a technique I use! I could do a video how I get I'm and out! Thanks for watching!
Living the dream! I fly into ELP every weekend. Just the most beautiful approach with the Franklins in the background
Nice, the mountains make it so much better!

Probably not I haven't flown that way I'm a while, but I've never heard it from the outside lol the inside is pretty quiet
Bro these vids are 🔥 Keep them coming.
Thanks bro! I promise more to come!
Thanks J&L Adventures
Hey man, awesome plane. Are you still in EP? Im looking into getting the PPL pretty soon 👍
A great plane ( I’m a Piper guy) but I really would want a PC12 over the M600 ( which is much better then the M500 imo )

@@arthurbrumagem3844 Yeah as long as you are only dreaming you can throw the money out the window but what about reality?
What a plane!
6:42 oops 😂. Looks like a great airplane!
oh the pain of telling the tower have a safe flight
I new I should have edit that part out lol I didn't think I'd get roasted so much! Eh oh well lol 😆
@@JLAdventures15 These things happen, cant even count how many times I have told waiters to have a great meal.
👏👏👏👏
Hve a nice flight 😂😂
I don't know what I was thinking 😂😂
You never showed the cabin and entry
Have much drag is that radar pod? 3-4 knots less TAS?
I would say it really doesn't have maybe 1-2 knots, if that, difference on it in my opinion.
do I see that correct that you're inside air temp is 0 degrees C? at 08:00 min ish. is it always that cold?

What's the reason behind calling yourself M600 instead of Meridian?
Performance reasons, we have a better Performance tables then the Merdian/m500, so instead of filling as a p46t I file as an m600.
I get the performance differences, but that would be like me calling myself C25B on the radio instead of Citation. Just curious. Safe flying.
@@cj2driver exactly! Stick to Meridian!
What’s the service ceiling?
We are RVSM, so our service ceiling is FL300
All that money for 180 knots?
