Daher’s new operation in São Paulo will help it double sales of its TBM series and Kodiak turboprop singles in Brazil, according to Daher Aircraft CEO Nicolas Chabbert. The company currently sells about three airplanes a year in Brazil and expects this number to climb to six or seven.

“The TBM in this market makes total sense,” Chabbert said. “There is a huge country to cover, and the cost of operation, specifically of a jet, is making it a little bit complicated. The use of turboprops is something that is across Latin America very popular, and the TBM is no exception.
