Questions
How many passengers does the TBM 940 seat?
Up to 5 in a typical executive layout. Some aircraft are configured differently, so we confirm the exact seating for your trip when we quote.
How far can the TBM 940 fly?
The manufacturer quotes a range of about 1,700 nautical miles. With a normal load and reserves we plan on about 1,450 nm nonstop; winds, passengers and luggage all change it.
Can the TBM 940 fly London to Dubai nonstop?
London to Dubai is about 2,979 nm. That is beyond its range, so it needs one fuel stop.
Can the TBM 940 cross the Atlantic?
London to New York is about 2,986 nm. Flying west into the prevailing winds it behaves more like 3,434 nm. It normally makes one fuel stop, often in Iceland, Ireland or Canada. For nonstop transatlantic flights we suggest a larger, longer-range jet.
How fast is the TBM 940?
It typically cruises at about 330 knots (611 km/h). London to Nice takes about 2h 00m.
How much luggage fits on the TBM 940?
The baggage hold takes about 35 cubic feet (1.0 m³). How many bags that means depends on their size and shape, so tell us what you are bringing, including skis, golf bags or pushchairs, and we will confirm it fits or suggest a larger aircraft.
