Daher TBM 850 Buyer’s Guide

If you’re in the market for a single-engine turboprop aircraft, the Daher TBM 850 may already feature high on your shopping list. As an upgrade on the earlier TBM 700 series, the TBM 850 was first certified in 2006 and was produced until 2013.

Equipped with a single Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-66D engine, the TBM 850 offers more range, payload, speed, and a quicker rate of climb than its TBM 700 predecessors.

How much does a Daher TBM 850 turboprop cost?

Numerous things can impact the asking price of a used Daher TBM 850, including the model’s year of manufacture, modifications that have been made (i.e. to the avionics), the time left on the engine and airframe before the next big maintenance event is due, and the aircraft’s general maintenance condition.

Moreover, external factors can influence an aircraft’s value, such as supply and demand on the pre-owned market. During times when more than 10% of the TBM 850 fleet is for sale, buyers traditionally are in a stronger negotiating position. When less of the fleet is available, however, the market dynamics favour sellers.
