11 Turbo Props You Can Buy In Place Of A Jet

While turboprops may not be able to fly as far or as fast as most private jets, the right turboprop can be a great fit for missions with shorter legs. The efficiency of these turboprop engines coupled with the cost savings of single-pilot operations means these aircraft can get the job done at a relatively low cost.

[@kevinbarry71]

I enjoyed the video nevertheless I think there's room for improvement. I wish you were more consistent when comparing the aircraft. If you're going to give speed on one, you should give speed on all. Likewise, range, climb rate etc.

[@grafhilgenhurst9717]

And cost!

[@AQUAMAGNET]

@@grafhilgenhurst9717 and Fuel burn rate!

[@dudieland]

My favorite is the Piaggio 😊

[@amamdawhatever]

The E1000 is hands down the most fun I have ever had flying! No joke 3,000 FPM climb! My only quam is the thing is so slick and the Vle being pretty low, I feel like speed brakes would be a welcome addition.

[@jjones6606]

Epics and TBMs are both too cool. Even PC-12s are rad. My instructor flew a Blackhawk King Air 200 and I got a few rides. Also an awesome ship.

[@climjames1677]

I like the PC12 NGX

[@Evancho08]

Missed out on the Piper Cheyenne 400LS

[@alonzovillarreal4666]

All of them are wonderful airplanes in their own right.

[@dontdeletehistory]

Love your videos

[@pmoohkt]

at 2:37... it's said that the Beechcraft can "even fly from Paris to Moscow"... That's not going to happen nowadays 😄

[@paulmess2722]

the best in design and speed by far the EPIC!!!

[@scottdecarlo815]

Which ones have a rest room? There is no way a wife and kids are going to fly for hours without having to whiz.

[@donovandasilva3930]

None

[@Perich29]

Just stop at the airport to use restrooms.

[@simonrobert9858]

Pilatus PC12 had

[@emiconstantino5434]

Avanti piaggio

[@merc340sr]

I like the Super King Air 350 (T-tail).

[@therusticcollectionebaysto7028]

New sub ! Liked 🙏😃😘

[@gman83090]

The Royal flying Dr service in Australia actually use the king air

[@jrs9144]

Nice try but you have numerous mistakes, especially on the Lancair

[@sleektruck22]

Agreed, Lancair Evo is Turbine Powered.

[@cebunting]

Kingair 90 isn’t sold anymore either

[@andrewallason4530]

Multiple segments with serious discrepancies between what is said and the text on screen. Some airspeeds given as knots, some as miles per hour. Some ranges given as Nautical miles with others as miles or even kilometres. And includes aircraft out of production for 45+ years!

[@satguy]

Don't forget about annual maintenance costs you just can't run down to your corner A&P and have them work on this.

[@jun-nv2hf]

Good 👍 👍 👍

[@bluegrasskid4835]

The Cessna Conquest II's max flight distance is 1700Nm 13:27 but it's maximum range is 2500 miles (approx 2150 Nm). What is the difference between max flight distance and range?

[@easternwoods4378]

Beechcraft has discontinued the C90

[@killingfields1424]

Avanti Evo

[@billmorris2613]

Good morning to all from SE Louisiana 15 Sep 22.

[@areza15143]

30,000 feets, that’s awesome! But seriously folks, lose the game show prize announcer please! Instead, use an announcer who knows aviation.

[@kevinbarry71]

C208 High performance? That aircraft is many things, but high-performance is not one of them

[@climjames1677]

LOL. I always thought of it as a short range mini cargo plane.

[@Trevor_Austin]

The C208 has a really good performance. It works well on short fields, lifts a good load, is fuel efficient, is easy to maintain etc. Performance is about achieving your goals with minimum input.

[@trilomann]

The tbm 940 isn’t the newest the 960 is

[@matthewbrinker6615]

Didn’t Beechcraft stop making the ka90?

[@sleektruck22]

Sure Did! Years Ago!

[@lurking0death]

The Caravan EX has a much larger engine than stated here.

[@Warcrazyness]

The politis pc-12 is the best

[@sj8016]

Numbers and spelling leaves some room for improvement as does consistency with comparisons and stick to one unit of measure not hopping all over

[@donizetesilva1088]

[@thatfeeble-mindedboy]

Still waiting for a Caravan sized (or even larger) - Skymaster-style, twin boom tailed, dual turboprop, centerline thrust, utility craft with an option for amphibious floats. (Imagine what a bush plane that would make) …Such a craft could be certified for twin-engine operation during takeoff and for over-water passenger hauling, or single engine economy cruise or for increased range requirements, all without any asymmetric thrust concerns inherent in non-centerline-thrust designs. I would like to see innovations explored like: what is the upper limit of tire size in an amphibious float? And also the concept of an upward-hinging rear engine that completely opened the full dimensions of the fuselage and used a telescoping gantry-style crane that would extend outward from the rear cargo opening so that oversized items or palletized cargo could be quickly picked up and brought inside without the use of forklifts etc. or being broken down from a palletized state. Such could also be used as handicap access or in air-ambulance service, whether loading a single gurney, or a self- powered, pre-provisioned, prefabricated, custom-fit emergency medical “module” outfitted with any specialized equipment needed. If such a module could be carried on an an ambulance chassis, the patient and an attendant could possibly be transported from scene to ER, or from hospital to hospital without any intervening movement or exposure, even maintaining full quarantine protocol from end-to-end, if equipped with self-contained water and air supply or filtration, waste management, and climate control.

[@flutebasket4294]

My God, the errors in this video are almost astonishing!

[@KSRRider]

Conquest II is a beast. The cruise speed is incorrect. The video says 300 mph. I routinely seen 310-315 KNOTS TAS in cruise flight in the high 20s. That is ~360 mph. Much faster than a King Air 200

[@hugopnabais]

ok it was going relative well until you got to the Kodiak 🤦‍♀ So the Kodiak is comparable to a JET?!!! 🤣

[@mikeh7256]

This video was obviously setup for clicks/views and was quickly put together with outdated information. If you use this video as a guide for pricing, you'll need to whip out over $1m more in some examples vs the prices shown here. I've flown a few of these examples and comparisons are definitely needed - from real experience, not captured sales brochures.

[@haljohnson6947]

its good enough. nobody is going to make a sales decision based on this video's prices.

[@OskieOmega]

I worry about a bathroom

[@Perich29]

60 gallon per hour your looking at 5 miles per gallon in the air.

[@mikhailbarash3193]

Я умер с тоски…🥲

[@keithgardner4796]

Ummm... the Evo has a range of 1759 nm, and it can fly nonstop from New York to California? Does it create a tesseract or something? That distance is about 2150 nautical miles. There is simply no way that the Avanti EVO can fly from New York to California non-stop. Sorry guys.

[@haljohnson6947]

the tesseract feature is only $80,000.

[@freedomforever6718]

FYI, an aircraft with floats is a floatplane not a "seaplane".

[@blublade56]

You are talking millions of bucks like every dog and cat got that . Only problem is I'm no dog or cat just a 45 year pilot that cant afford an R/C anything . I would make my own but where I am nobody even knows what Balsa wood is .

[@ubermenschen3636]

@2:25, 15,000 miles range? That flight distance is more than a 747SP. Unless your narrator is a robot, you have no basic understanding of aviation. In short you should not produce videos beyond your intelligence.

[@diegoalejandrolopezgarcia1629]

He said 1,500 @ 2:03

[@l.carlossimental6096]

Expensive!
