Piper M600 demo tour in Italy



Piper Aircraft and OrionFLY are collaborating to exhibit the M600, the company’s flagship product, in Italy.

The succesful presentation tour to European customers, which began 2 months ago following the aircraft’s European debut at Aero Friedrichshafen, will be concluded in Italy with demonstrations to clients in Trento and Monteprandone on June 28-30, before continuing to exhibit the M600 throughout the continent of Africa during the month of July.

This will be the first time that an M600 aircraft has been on display in Italy.

The Piper M600 is the last born of the Piper's family. It features a new, clean sheet design wing and a sophisticated Garmin G3000 touchscreen-controlled glass flight deck. The M600 seats six and is powered by a Pratt & Whitney PT6A-42A 600shp engine. The aircraft has a maximum cruise speed of 274 ktas/507 km/h, a max range of 1,484 nm / 2,748 km, and a standard useful load of 2,400 lbs. / 1,089 kg.The G3000 avionics suite is the next generation of Garmin architecture, offering the most comprehensive, intuitive, and technologically advanced package on today's market.

 

The single-engine turboprop received validation from the European Aviation Safety Agency on May 22, during the EBACE show, and deliveries into Europe have already begun. 

The recent approval by EASA of commercial operations using a single-engine turbine aircraft at night or in instrument meteorological conditions, will definitely open up new opportunities for more cost-effective business aviation in Europe.
