About the TBM 940

The Daher TBM 940 is a premier high-performance single-engine turboprop, often described as a ‘jet with a propeller.’ Introduced in 2019, it represents a significant technological leap in the TBM family, specifically targeting owner-operators who demand high speed and advanced safety features. It is the first turboprop in its class to feature a fully integrated autothrottle and the HomeSafe™ emergency autoland system (available on 2020+ models).

Key Features for GA Buyers

  • Advanced Automation: The Garmin G3000 flight deck with autothrottle significantly reduces pilot workload, especially during the climb and approach phases.
  • Safety Systems: Includes the ‘HomeSafe’ autoland system, which can autonomously land the aircraft at a nearby airport if the pilot becomes incapacitated.
  • Speed and Range: With a cruise speed of 330 KTAS and a maximum range of 1,730 NM, it is capable of transcontinental missions with high efficiency.
  • Short Field Capability: Access to smaller GA airports that are inaccessible to many mid-sized jets.

Trade-offs

  • Payload with Full Fuel: While it has a high MTOW, filling the tanks limits the remaining payload (approx. 891 lbs), meaning a trade-off between carrying six passengers and maximum range.
  • Operational Complexity: Despite the automation, the TBM 940 is a high-performance aircraft that requires disciplined training and high insurance requirements for owner-operators.
