Inside Diamond DA62: The World's SAFEST Aircraft

The Diamond DA62 is a unique and one-of-a-kind flying machine, with incredible equipment that makes it moves farther and faster than any other aircraft in its class; the Diamond DA62 speaks of exquisite luxury. In this video, I'll be sharing with you all that you need to know about the New Diamond DA62.
The Diamond DA62 is a twin-engine aircraft with a seating arrangement for up to seven passengers on board, it's no doubt the DA62 is the luxury SUV of the skies. The aircraft which is fully automated with FADEC technology has a range of 1,283 nm; the DA62 is quite spacious with an extra-large cabin, generous and adjustable front seats, a 60/40 split-folding three-seat second-row bench, and an optional folding two-seat third-row bench.

I have been flying the DA-62 for 2 years for an owner. It is very high tech and easy for single pilot IFR but this plane is a maintenance nightmare. It has been down repeatedly for small and major issues including the gear not extending (on a very low hour aircraft) resulting in expensive damage. They aren’t fast. They are not roomy. I’d take a Seneca V any day over it

I believe that the early Ercoupe is the safest airplane ever designed. The rudder is linked to the ailerons and cannot be cross controlled, hence the plane is almost impossible to stall when making that base-to-final turn. Fred Wick had the solution. Cessna destroyed it. Way to go...

[@michaelhoffmann2891]

I would love to see what the sales figures in Europe are between the lighter and heavier version. Once you have the $$$ necessities to buy one of these, do the higher ATC fees for the heavier aircraft really bother you? If so, are they all grounded with the explosion of diesel/JetA prices and you spent all your money on the plane and can't afford to fly it? I mean ATC/CASA fees in Australia are horrendous (and have arguably contributed to the collapse of GA in this country), but if I won the Powerball, I'd just laugh it off, as I'd laugh off the fact that here this is a AU$3million(!) aircraft.

[@snn689]

I talked to a distributor in the UK. They’ve sold none of the lighter version, all of their sales have been of the max mtow one. I think the lower one is only for businesses flying with one or two only looking to avoid airways fees.
