We are getting used to seeing some very advanced aircraft coming from the Diamond Aircraft Company, and it looks like they’re at it again.
A DA50 powered by a turboprop engine made its first flight on Monday of this week. This concept was first introduced at the general aviation show AERO Friedrichshafen in April 2013. RedHawk Aero, a subsidiary of Redbird Flight Simulations, has announced that Cochise College in Douglas, Arizona has ordered 6 RedHawk aircraft in a move to upgrade and modernize their training fleet. They will utilize the new RedHawk aircraft while training for Private Pilot, Instrument and Commercial Pilot Certification in Cochise College’s professional pilot program. Daher-Socata delivered 51 new TBM 900s in 2014, representing a 27-percent increase from 2013 for the family of very fast turboprop aircraft. With an order intake for 64 aircraft in 2014, it was the best year ever in terms of TBM sales volume, and the second best year for the company’s aircraft program since 1990.
