Daher Aircraft TBM 980, the 10th in the U.S., was delivered to Dr. Ian Fries. This marks the sixth TBM turboprop single bought by Fries, who uses the aircraft to fly to see patients at his offices in New Jersey and Florida.

Daher Aircraft has delivered a TBM 980 to longstanding customer Ian Fries, representing the sixth consecutive TBM family acquired by the owner in the last two decades. The aircraft also marks the 10th TBM 980 to arrive in the U.S.

Fries, an orthopedic surgeon and FAA-qualified aviation medical examiner, uses his aircraft to travel between offices in Florida and New Jersey, as well as for patient consultations. His loyalty to the Daher product line is, in part, attributed to the “high level of service and the expert maintenance” he has “experienced throughout [his] TBM ownership.”
