U.S. Deliveries Can Begin On New Twin
The FAA has certified Diamond’s new DA62 twin clearing the way for US customer deliveries.
“Our all new DA62 is getting overwhelming high praise from everyone that flies it. Its combination of cabin volume, utility, performance and efficiency make it an ideal traveller for the US market.” said Peter Maurer, President and CEO of Diamond Aircraft Industries Inc. (Canada). “We are extremely proud to be offering this great aircraft, alongside our popular singles and
DA42 twin.”
Diamond’s fleet of Austro jet fuel piston engine powered singles and twins are touring the USA, to let as many pilots as possible experience the simplicity of operation, extraordinary fuel efficiency and performance of these unique aircraft. Currently the demonstration team is touring California, followed by stops in Nevada, Arizona, Texas and then moving to the Southeastern US, with more tour details to be announced in the near future.
Meanwhile, the company late last week embarked on the first of several US aircraft demonstration tours planned for 2016. The first tour began in San Diego, and will visit selected locations in California, Nevada and Arizona. Following in the spring, tours are planned to include Texas and the Southern and Southeastern States of the US, with more to follow.
“Diamond is excited to launch the first tour of 2016 in the Southwest United States.” said Peter Maurer, President and CEO of Diamond Aircraft Industries Inc. (Canada). “This is the first opportunity for many US based pilots to not only fly the stunning new 7 seat DA62, and the latest versions of our popular twin and single engine 4 seaters, but to experience firsthand the ease of operation, sophistication, performance and efficiency of our jet fuel burning Austro piston engine powered models
