Piper Aircraft announced that its new M-700 "FURY" single-engine turboprop has been awarded type certification by Transport Canada Civil Aviation (TCCA). The validation also includes Flight into Known Icing (FIKI) approval. The first delivery into Canada is scheduled for this quarter, with additional international deliveries this year into EASA, the UK and Brazil as those certifications are obtained.
Having FIKI certification is particularly valuable in regions like Canada, where icing conditions are frequently encountered, enabling year-round operations and improved mission reliability.
With this certification secured, the industry is actively pursuing additional international validations, with deliveries to other global regions scheduled to begin later this year. This strategic expansion underscores Piper's commitment to meeting the diverse needs of pilots and operators worldwide.
The airplane is certified in March of 2024, has six-seats and it is powered by a Pratt & Whitney PT6A-52 700 SHP engine. The aircraft has a maximum cruise speed of 301ktas/557 km/hr, a max range of 1852 nm/3,430 km, and a standard useful load of 2,320 lbs/1,052 kg.
