Brazilian entrepreneur Cesar Augusto Olsen placed an order with Daher Aircraft for a TBM 980 turboprop single today at LABACE 2026. The customer—founder of medical equipment group Olsen Indústria e Comércio—already operates a TBM 850 and has chosen to upgrade to the latest TBM version, which has Garmin G3000 Prime avionics and emergency Autoland.

During the signing event at LABACE, Olsen said he will use the new aircraft to visit his company’s distributors throughout Brazil. “Our TBM is an essential tool for the development of our activities,” he commented. “After [having] benefited for two years from the performance and reliability of the TBM 850, the transition to the TBM 980 is the natural choice. It gives us the speed, the efficiency, and the necessary technology to support the growth of our business.”
