Thank you for this very interesting video. I'm working for the company which manufactures the air conditioning system and other stuff. The GASC General Air System Controller was my very first project. It would be a big thing for me to see this little box installed in the aircraft. I think it is hidden behind a panel in the baggage bay. Maybe you could show it to me. I would be very happy. Thanks.

Can you fit any clubs in that front cargo area? If not can you do it well in the rear? Debating on an m600 or tbm. Also what do you see for your operating cost not including insurance or hangar. Just fuel and maintenance.

Thanks for the tour ! Did they also teach you stuff like basic maintenance and pre-flight/post-flight check up at Simcom ? Did you have to do your 20h with a tutor in Orlando too ?
@JasonFlies

They do help with learning the preflight stuff during your initial training but for overall maintenance advice you rely on the shop and Daher themselves to educate you. I did most of my initial 20-25 hours of mentor time with my sales broker but spent some time in the real plane with the simcom instructor and a third guy. Helpful to get multiple perspectives.

Really nice to see this video. At 2:50-3:02 you access the fuel filter. Don't know why it bothers me but the key seems to be permanently attached. Is this so? Seems odd that it wouldn't fold away to a more aerodynamic shape. Beautiful plane and great videos. Enjoy it.

I had 1000 hours in single engine pistons, so insurance made me go to SimCom training for a week plus get 25 hours of time with a mentor/instructor pilot. That went by quick though. I was getting comfortable in the plane at about 15-20 hours in, once I had done the full week at SimCom. I don't think being the owner factors into the requirements.

That TBM must be a strain financially, A beautiful aircraft but a very "bare-bones" hangar, no pilot lounge, small bar/kitchenette, un-painted/unfinished walls etc. Make it as classy as your plane. Do it please !

Understood, Love the TBM. After looking into the Epic 1000, I'm leaning heavy towards TBM. Wife is holding me back for reason of use and practicality of expenses involved. We'll see what happens soon.

@JasonFlies

typically around 7-10 minutes, though I do an extra thorough one when I am updating databases and have extra time sitting in the hangar (often not flying those days, just checking on the plane and making sure it is ready for the next flights)

$650/mon - just big enough to fit the TBM. Community/shared hangar space can be cheaper, maybe $350 in this area of Texas. Private hangars are nice b/c you can store some stuff there and have power when you need to clean the plane or update databases, etc.
