Daher Aircraft

Some 32 years after the TBM 700's service entry, Daher has handed over the 1,100th TBM turboprop single—a Model 960.

Daher's new authorized center, Hradecka Letecka Servisni, is a Part 145 repair station in central Europe.

The 20th Daher TBM 960 delivery comes a little more than two months after receiving FAA type certification.

The latest TBM very fast turboprop aircraft delivers the full benefits of digital power.

Based upon current order trends, French airframer Daher believes 2022 could be a record year for the company.

Designed initially to operate to remote locations, the Kodiak fleet, which has reached 300, now is operating in a range of applications worldwide.

Airborne Flying Service is leasing two Kodiak 100s from the non-profit American Heritage organization for air medical services in the South Central U.S.

Daher expects to deliver 75 aircraft—50 TBMs and 25 Kodiak 100s—this year, which would be a 41.5 percent increase over 2020 shipments.

Daher announced the Series III version of the Kodiak 100 that adds more enhancements and standard features to the utility turboprop.

Wayman Luy, who spent 16 years as a TBM mentor and factory demo pilot and 20 more at Wayman Aviation Academy, is now Daher director of training, standards.
