The Evolution looks like the ultimate personal aircraft. The others each come with their own advantages, but the affordability of the Lancair really makes it a dream plane.
For years I've been enjoying your videos man, thank you for making them you truly enhanced my overall aviation knowledge and enjoyment. Thanx again from Europe !
Great brief review! I enjoyed it. Sadly, the single turboprops have killed the twin turbos for a long shot, unless specific applications where a king air is needed. I miss the C90s…!
You can do a video comparing private operating costs of an Eclipse vs your pick of turboprop. There is a 2008 Eclipse for sale right now for 1mil. 1600 hours, TBO is 3500 but probably overhaul at 1800 or so. Last I checked with P&W the engines were 922k a piece. I think it's an illusion that turboprops are significantly cheaper to run.
Would be interesting if you had added which of the planes can do soft field landings / take offs and maybe an short overall comparison chart of them all . `Other than that great video !
I believe the PC12 is rough field capable, are any of the others in this video also rough field capable?? Of course, one thing not mentioned in the video, the PC12 has a shitter, don’t think any of the others do.
If you can afford to buy any of these planes, you can more than likely afford the upkeep on a Honda Jet. I’d take the Honda any day over any of these birds.

Yup, they are aiming square at cirrus owners. It seems way better than the vision jet at sr22T prices
We clearly need to make more money fellow pilots

Turbine legend would be a fun option.

Owning an airplane is generally not economically at all its purely for the sport of it..

Great Video.
Thanks for the content.
Nice work Mike!
For me, even a Malibu would be a major stretch. Yes, it only can do 2/3 the speed, but the costs are DRAMATICALLY lower.

That was a great comparison video!!
I’ll take the TBM! 😊
I'll take two!
Surely the PC-12 NGX stated HP is not correct, right? 160HP ?
Any kind of FIKI on it? I don’t see anything like that on it!
do you recommend single prop over dual prop? what dual prop planes do you recommend?
I'd recommend the Diamond DA62 or DA42 for safety and reliability.
If you're interested in jets, then the HondaJet Elite.
@@nostradamus7648 for dual prop = PIPER CHEYENNE 400LS. for jet e550.
Excelente excelente Bro 🫵🏼 I know you're busy with the flight ✈️ school 🏫 but please.. don't stop the full length videossssss ✈️🙏🏼✌🏼 all the best 🏆🥇
Yeah, nice, but a turboprop engine costs almost as much to maintain as a jet engine!
Economical? I’m not sure you know what that word means.
