What a change that would be for the little old airplane company in Texas... They dropped out because they were broke (again). Valmet dropped out because it was outside their area of expertise.

Wow these TBM 900 are fast.
David Crockett from Cutter SAT posted this picture on Instagram a couple days ago. 327 knots true at FL280 with ISA +5.
These numbers are 5 kts better than book.

And Marc, I just bet you can get "A LOT" of money for your airplane on trade. Almost too good to pass up and better hurry as the first 20 callers get a free pilot door. Oh that's right it's already included. Well how about a TBM hat?
