- (Filmed before COVID) Joe Casey joins Christ Wong (@PilotChristy) for a discussion on the Piper PA-46 airframe and variants, including the Malibu, Meridian, Mirage and the new M-600. The ins and outs of piston versus turboprop, pressurized aircraft versus unpressurized. Joe is considered a leading expert on the PA-46 airframe.

I love Joe Casey! Very articulate and knowledgeable pilot
Yup.
This reminds me of a top gear style of show, the person in the blue shirt was very informative
I'm not a pilot, but I still enjoyed hearing about the plane.
Enjoyed this.👍🏽👍🏽 Thank you.
WEPA, those where the same questions I was asking myself as the interview progressed!
How where you able to read my mind?
Great Job, Thank You and all involved. Great info.
Great capabilities and performance ! I like this aircraft ! Joe is very interesting and he knows perfectly this airplane !
Awesome vid! :D
Great info
I’m a student pilot learning how to fly
Thank you
ive been blessed to own two Meridians...having a military yet background, i explain to friends about the Meridian..its a Corvette with wings
Thanks! Years ago an aviation friend said to buy a Malibu. It'll do 205 plus knots true, is pressurized, with radar and deice, efficient and a super glider. I should have listened to them. 15 years ago, I could have gotten one for $200 plus thousand, today in Trade-a-plane the lowest cost one is $369k. 6-13-2021.
Great interview, informative.
A great episode, good insight to the model. However it would better talking about the matrix and mission associated with it, as well as discussing the pros n cons of compared aircrafts. Ideally if need or mission is accounted for , the matrix usually fits the bill. During hot summers the matrix shines in cooling the cabin much much faster while taxing in crazy florida or texas summer than a pressurized one, cz the pressurized aircraft relies heavily on the bleed air to cool the cabin so it takes longer (specific for piston engine). The matrix at 10,000 alt is perfect for a 6 pax with a range of 700 ish nm with reserve. Plus the maintenance and operating cost of the matrix is cheaper. For under 2hour leg, sub 700 nm the matrix is a better proposition for a family of 6. The turboprops are on a league of their own with better range, and service ceiling. M600 for the win with a hefty price tag.
Just recently had an opportunity to fly/video my flight in a Jet Prop!
My dream plane.
It’s my “lotto plane”! 🙂
Hi Christy. One question: Is there any chance to do an interview tlking about all the Cirrus airplanes? Thank you. Cheers from NE patagonia, Argentina.
Sounds like a great bird to own
I want one.
First. Great episode
G, day from Sydney, Australia.
* just looking at the six (6) piper I wonder about the C of G
* if the wing spars are under the AD inspection for fatigue cracking?
*the higher prices of the bigger lycombing motor.: I would be interested to know the dba volume of the engine in the cockpit and cabin.
* could you ask the examiner his opinion on maintaining licence proficiency minimum take offs/landings and nav obligations?
Waypoints and direct route...

Not all Piper are affected by this AD. Google Wing AD for list of Aircraft. Our PA28-236 is Not affected, PA28-235 is listet due to different Wing Design.
Thanks for the nice show. I am lucky enough to get to fly in a Malibu JetProp pretty often (not my plane), and can certainly vouch that they are lovely to fly. Smooth, responsive and the cabin is fantastic. My only complaint on the JetProp is that with the extra fuel to power the turbine, the useful load can be marginal.
I have seen many complains about the realability both of the continental and the Lycoming engine on the piper malibu.
Clean sheet? I always thought it was a single engine with the Cheyenne cross section. I fact isn't it a common cross section with the PiperJet that wasn't?
What about the turbine p210 Cessna centurion Silver Eagle STC? Would be cool to compare the Malibu!
THat would be interesting. Im hearing the Silver Eagle isn't as fast.
@@TakingOff true but also compare useful load/range scenarios as well as the price differential between the 2 STC’s.
Pilot skill on landing in regard to ground effect
I’m about to start to get my license and I have been intrigued by this airplane. I am now discouraged when he mentioned he wouldn’t have a student purchase this plane as I was planning on purchasing a pa46 when I go for my ifr☹️
Hmm. Maybe ask your CFI for his opinion? Everyone’s capabilities are different. Let us know what happens!
@@TakingOff ok I will
Arrow iii with 200hp might be a good replacement or saratoga.
So there was one question I wanted Christi to ask that she didn't, which is, what happens when a pressurized plane reaches the end of its ability to safely be pressurized? Do you have to get rid of the airframe?
The Malibu airframe is certified to 10,000 hours. Most Malibus on the market today (more than 40 years since production) haven't come close to half of that. Hard to imagine the aviation world another 40 years from now. But I've heard some folks say the certification hours can be extended. Or, they can be continually flown unpressurized (essentially becoming Matrices).
I'm having trouble finding life limits on pressurized ga planes, what is the life limit on the pa 46 if their is one
I thought Joe touched on this in this episode? Let me do some digging.
@@TakingOff He gave a generic answer of 10000 hours but did not specify what planes. I've seen this topic come up before but nothing to back it up. I would really like to know. Great video by the way, the pa 46 would be my dream plane.
@@likes2fly That info should be in the TCDS
So did she buy one ?
Not yet.
Keep in mind, with full fuel it is not a six seater! More like a 2-3 seater....
Yeah but any other plane with "full fuel" is only "half fuel" in the Malibu. They basically gave you ferry tanks as factory standard. That's the way to think about it!
I’ll go out on a limb here and say that this was not a clean sheet design and piper utilized the fuselage and tail off the Navajo and chieftain variants
Nice hairdo!
250k? Was expecting 1.X mill.
Yeah you can get an 80’s Malibu piston for under $300K.
a meridian selling at above 1million mark nothing close to usd250k
TURBAN
Love the show.
Incidentally... would you people please stop saying "turbin". The word is TUR-BINE. Man.... you and Mike Busch...
Ill accept both lol. Its used a ton
www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/turbine
@@rocky_williams ...Well then Merriam-Webster got it wrong. I guess next a John Deere will start being called a "combin".
A "turbin" (although spelled with an a instead of an i) is something you wear on your head if you are in the desert.
@@georgeburns1561 Webster documents that both pronunciations are acceptable.
Husband….. she’s divorced now. Ask her why….. 🥴 She’ll probably lie about it tho…
Great topic but the interviewer is cringe. Just let him talk or ask better questions.
Agree. Smarmy, cringy, false smiling American style. Pretty nauseating. Joe is great though.
She’s nice to look at…. 🤷🏽♂️
