      Here are answers to all of your questions: TBM 910's maximum certified takeoff weight is 7,394 lbs, with a standard useful load of about 2,400 lbs. SF50's maximum certified takeoff weight is 6,000 lbs, with a standard useful load of 2,453 lbs. | TBM uses about 37 GPH. SF50 uses about 59 GPH. | The TBM 910 is comfortable, but is also said to be very cramped when seating passengers. The SF50 is said to be very comfortable to fly, and ride along in. | Costs for the TBM come to about $762,000 (Annual Budget). For the SF50, it is $573,000 (also Annual Budget). | The TBM 910 contains 8 seats (Pilot & Co-Pilot). The SF50 contains 7 seats (Pilot & Co-Pilot). | The cabin volume of the TBM is still louder than a jet propelled aircraft, but is still decently quiet. The cabin volume of the SF50 is quieter in current models than in older models, but is still a bit on the high side for a jet, apparently it's not loud though.
      I hope these were good answers, just did some research.

    I'm surprised at the TBM's relatively modest rate of climb. I thought that they climbed at more than double what this fly-off showed. I just checked online and the climb performance in the video pretty much matches what it's supposed to be. However, the 960, which is probably what I was thinking of, has a 4000' per minute ROC. I wish fuel burn would have been compared.

    Fantastic comparisons love these kinds of real-life comparisons. I've flown the cirrus, and it is very nice to fly, but when it comes to practically using it in real life it is really just a toy. Very very poor range and that's with 2 people, if you fill it up then range drops substantially. The Epic is faster, climbs higher, less fuel, and longer range all while having all seats full and baggage. I have also flown an Epic.

    It might be just a “technique “ for Cirrus pilots but when you are landing with the approach checklist in white you may want to complete the approach and landing checklists before you complete your 25 nm straight in VFR approach.

    Great video. I think either plane is great, but if I could afford either, I'd probably go with the TBM. The much shorter landing distance means there are more airports it can land at. The drag speed race to me is kind of inconclusive, because they were both done around 10,000 ft, which isn't where either of these planes are going to fly.

    @uberanalyst 3 місяці тому +16

    Something's wrong with this comparison: Could Matt in the TBM have been too conservative in his use of throttle to avoid elevated ITTs? Or still had the TBM's inertial separator ON?
    Cirrus jets are well-known to have relatively poor climb rates: ATC dislikes them because they keep getting in the way of other jets flying arrival or departure procedures. They've joked that the reason it's called the "Vision" Jet is because it only imagines that it's a jet.
    If you wanted a real competitor to the Cirrus Jet or TBM, you should hold a "grudge match" with a certified Epic E1000 GX turboprop (which new costs in the same $4M range as the TBM and Cirrus). The Epic would have had to throttle back to avoid busting the FAA's 250 knot IAS limit below 10,000 feet while blowing past both other aircraft in takeoff, climb, and drag race comparisons.

      No, inertial separator was off, and was at 100% on TQ. I think part of the issue was we were at low altitude. Not sure what the optimal climb speed is for the TBM; probably picked the best angle rate rather than best climb rate...

      @@petergab734 Hey Peter, assuming you’re referencing the SF50, then yes, compared to many high-performance single engine turboprops, it is lacking. However, many of their buyers (SF50) I’ve come to know over the years, don’t really care about the performance other than a few grumbles, it’s all about the cabin. Secondary to that, mouthing the words “my jet” at the cocktail party does well to stroke the TYPE A personality and associated ego, if you know what I mean?
      The TBM 9XX is hard to beat in the small turboprop class, however, it has its pitfalls as well. Air conditioning is the worst of the worst; fuel tank leaks are an issue; cabin is crowded and more.
      This is why I leave it up to the buyer to give whatever catches their eye and budget a try. If it doesn’t work out, there are buyers for both models ready to take it off their hands.
      Bottom line for me (and all of these comments are opinion-based in nature and I’ve owned both aircraft, btw), the only SF50 I would remotely consider is the G2+. The only TBM I would consider is in the “9” series and with that being said, I think the 960 is severely over-priced in this market and not worth the $5.55M list price. For the pilot leaning towards the turboprop as the better choice, a well cared for 940 is best overall value.

    I can't believe how much cheaper the cirrus is. Given how much better a jet would be than a cantankerous turboprop, I know what I'd be choosing.

    For a million $$ less and a parachute, for my kind of mission, I take the SF50 all day any day. Maintenance costs about the same on both.

      Yea, but then you have to deal with cirrus and the ridiculous price markups on service….i say this as a g3 and g6t owner. I would skip the sf50 and go pc12 or tbm. The corporate treatment from cirrus to its customers is so poor and now that they are public on the Chinese exchange, I expect it to get worse.

    For me, the TBM. Speed isn’t everything. The TBM is faster getting out of the annual inspection. Lastly, I’d rather take the TBM from Albuquerque
    To Europe for the summer. More camping gear can go into the TBM along with a couple of folding bikes.

    That Vision Jet is going to have much higher fuel and maintenance costs and it is going to have a less operational time because it will require more frequent and more complex maintenance.

    Fun test. I expected the visionjet to lose at most since it's the slowest jet around. The visionjet was supposed to be 1 million dollars, only a handful of years ago it was 2 million and now you are saying it's close to 4. Good thing it's not greed based. That would be awful.
    You could test a turboprop vs the Eclipse. I consider the Eclipse to be significantly superior to the visionjet and it's similar price. About double climb rate and 10-15% better fuel economy than the TBM

    Can the SF50 get in and out of an airport like St Barts? Yes, just barely, and don't be surprised if the underwriter cancels your policy after you upload a video doing it. Can the TBM? No. Sure it can roll out faster but lift off requires more distance. Turbulence happens, even for planes cruising at 30K. So who can fly higher? Both are tied at 31K which gets you out of 90 pct of the uncomfortable weather. Assuming the pilot operates at NORMAL cruise, who will reach the destination first? The TBM gets there quicker. Yes, payload and range matter, but don't upset passengers like altitude, cruise speed, and takeoff distance. Passenger would much rather the plane be capable of 41K while flying over nasty weather. As for range, they want to get out and stretch their legs anyway.

      If we were comparing airliners, we'd drop short field minimums from the list of key specs; the reality is, if you have a 737, you'll be able to land everywhere there is a major passenger terminal, and none of the dude ranches that GA planes are famous for accessing.

    Of course they didn't touch on the most important information--classic. Time to climb (i.e. 28 or 31k feet), Short field detailed statistics (did a mediocre job here), useful load with full fuel and 3/4 tanks (3h flight + reserve), etc. Who cares about a drag race at 9500'? Pointless. The 900 series TBM will do 315kts TAS at 30k on typical days, not 330. A 700 series B model will do 285ish and a C2 275-280.

    What is the point of the time to climb to 10,000 ft? These aircraft are going to guzzle fuel at that level. Both of those aircraft are probably better at the mid 20,000 level. Roll rate test is silly.
