TBM 940
Innovation: Daher's $4.3 million, six-seat, single-engine TBM 940 is the first turboprop weighing less than 12,500 pounds to offer a standard, factory-installed integrated autothrottle and automatic deicing. The aircraft also offers the optional emergency HomeSafe Autoland system that can autonomously land the aircraft in the event of an inflight emergency.
Cabin: Available in eight standard “harmony” color combinations, the cabin features a new design and heated seats, additional thermal insulation in the sidewalls, a central shelf with side storage, an additional 115-volt outlet at the right rear seat panel, and an extra USB port (bringing the total number of ports to six for passengers and three for the pilots). Custom paint and interior is also available. New-production TBMs have better environmental controls, vapor-cycle air conditioning, avionics upgrades, a small beverage cabinet, a wider main cabin entry door well-suited for loading outsized cargo, and an optional separate forward pilot’s door. The passenger seat bottoms are 18 inches wide and have 22-inch-high backs. A single club table deploys from the righthand sidewall, and there are power outlets for laptops.
