What about useful load, fuel consumption, mpg, ride comfort, maintenance costs, # seats, cabin volume....

[FlyingNDriving]

Part 2: cockpit volume, cabin volume, 4 adult range, time to alt, baggage showdown, golf club/large item packing. 250mm, 500nm, 800nm mission breakdown

[glenndahl]

I have owned both of these aircraft and flown them both hundreds of hours. The TBM will destroy the vision jet in climb performance and endurance at gross weight.

[themaverickproject]

Can we compare the two between useful load and fuel consumption?

[steveokinevo]

Interesting video! Both airplanes are a blast to fly.

[solarsky]

Looking forward to Beechcraft Denali VS. Pilatus PC-12 !

im taking the tbm...can land/takeoff from unprepared fields and I would imagine there are far more a&p's that know how to service a pt6

[superchargedpetrolhead]

the cirrus performed really better than i thought it would...just reading the spec sheet, you would think the tbm would wipe the floor with the cirrus...but the cirrus performed really well...

[jayfleegle]

Great Video, “ if” I had the money I would purchase the TBM

[fiedlertimify]

Oh to be the person who is watching this thinking, “this video made my decision so much easier.”😂

[tbmguy]

Great video Matt and Amanda! Both aircraft are amazing and great to fly!

[aymanabaza]

for safety I really like the Cirrus Jet with the full frame Parachute System

[jonasbaine]

Should compare high altitude cruise speed replicating an actual cross country flight. Which one cruises faster?

[rodsilva]

Maximum cruising speed on TBM is 330kt and 300kt for the Cirrus.

[lukebelvin]

I'd take the Vision Jet, CAPS is an amazing thing to have and I just love the visibility

[jakester]

Well for the vision you need a type rating which costs around $31, 000 the Tbm 910 you don’t need a type rating.

[LowandFast]

This was kind of a weak comparison. Who really cares about first indication of stall. Take that bad boy to the edge of VSo and hold it. That would have been much better. Roll rate? So what. Drag race...They would have been better off dragging from slow flight. The whole thing was just meh.

You can really see who the target audience of AOPA really is these days.

[buckbuchanan]

Would like to see fuel burn comparison on maybe a mission length of 500 miles, with comparable payloads.

It might be just a “technique “ for Cirrus pilots but when you are landing with the approach checklist in white you may want to complete the approach and landing checklists before you complete your 25 nm straight in VFR approach.
