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.

[@reed785M]

Yup, they are aiming square at cirrus owners. It seems way better than the vision jet at sr22T prices

[@danielnofal]

We clearly need to make more money fellow pilots

[@veveomidoc]

That was a great comparison video!!

[@RR-kl6sl]

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 !

[@brent1041]

Turbine legend would be a fun option.

[@brucetwilliams7469]

Great Video. Thanks for the content.

[@AC-jk8wq]

Nice work Mike!

[@Dan_C604]

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…!

[@RR-kl6sl]

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 !

[@DanFrederiksen]

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.

[@bogecoss]

Any kind of FIKI on it? I don’t see anything like that on it!

[@ytlongbeach]

Surely the PC-12 NGX stated HP is not correct, right? 160HP ?

[@Alfra1324]

I’ll take the TBM! 😊

[@scottstewart5784]

I'll take two!

[@mts982]

do you recommend single prop over dual prop? what dual prop planes do you recommend?

[@nostradamus7648]

I'd recommend the Diamond DA62 or DA42 for safety and reliability. If you're interested in jets, then the HondaJet Elite.

[@mts982]

@@nostradamus7648 for dual prop = PIPER CHEYENNE 400LS. for jet e550.

[@aldohattonduran5227]

Excelente excelente Bro 🫵🏼 I know you're busy with the flight ✈️ school 🏫 but please.. don't stop the full length videossssss ✈️🙏🏼✌🏼 all the best 🏆🥇

[@stefanoferri1485]

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

[@alancarroll7764]

Yeah, nice, but a turboprop engine costs almost as much to maintain as a jet engine!

[@montyklaus7223]

Economical? I’m not sure you know what that word means.

[@paulocesarmello7875]

[@realnewsthatmatters9319]

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.
