The Daher TBM 850 is a pressurized single-engine turboprop built between 2006 and 2014, a category that sits between piston single-engines and light jets. The catalog figures are a 1,730 nm range, a 320 kt cruise, a 31,000 ft ceiling, a maximum takeoff weight of 3,354 kg, and a cabin for up to 7 occupants (5 in the typical configuration), with a price of US$3.5 million when new. In Brazil, it serves those who want turbine reliability and single-pilot certification without taking on the cost of a light jet. Since production ended in 2014, the model now appears only in the used market.

Starter feature. Available on your Jet Tracker account.

Manufacturer-published distances at sea level, ISA and reference weight. Not corrected for altitude, temperature, wind or runway condition, takeoff included. Uses the declared LDA as a proxy for effective runway length (RBAC 135.361) and the most favourable threshold in calm air (135.385(b)(1)): on the day, wind may force the shorter threshold. Destination only: does not assess the alternate aerodrome (135.387). Not a substitute for the AFM or the operator's performance analysis. Rule: RBAC 135.385 and 135.398; private flying (RBAC 91) is not factored. Runways: declared distance (LDA) from AISWEB/DECEA (2026-09-05), checkable on each aerodrome chart; where DECEA publishes no declared distance, physical length from OurAirports is used.

History

  1. 2006FAA certification
  2. 2006 - Launch in 2006 with the PT6A-66D

    Socata unveiled the TBM 850 at NBAA 2005 and began deliveries in May 2006. The big difference from the TBM 700 was the PT6A-66D engine, thermodynamically capable of about 1,825 shp and flat-rated at 850 shp via a Torque Control Unit, maintaining higher torque at high altitudes where thin air limited the power available from the PT6A-64. Result: 20 kt faster cruise (320 kt vs 300 kt) and better hot-and-high performance.

  3. 2008 - Garmin G1000 integrated from 2008

    In 2008 Socata launched the TBM 850 with a factory-integrated Garmin G1000 cockpit, three large PFD/MFD screens and the GFC 700 autopilot, replacing the analog Honeywell instruments of the first 850s. It was the first factory TBM aircraft with a modern glass cockpit, paving the way for the TBM 910 (2017), which would adopt the factory G1000 NXi.

Curiosities and highlights

Benefits

Light jet speed at high altitudes

The great benefit of the flat-rated PT6A-66D is maintaining constant power up to higher altitudes; at FL280-310 the TBM 850 cruises at 320 kt while the TBM 700 falls to ~290 kt at the same altitude. On 1,000 nm missions this difference saves 15-20 minutes of flight and improves fuel economy proportionally.

Higher MTOW, useful load increased by 400 lb

The TBM 850 left the factory with an MTOW of 7,394 lb (vs. 6,578 lb on the original TBM 700A) and a useful load of 2,620 lb. This allowed carrying full fuel + 4 adults + full baggage on missions up to 1,500 nm, a classic limitation of the 700 that forced constant trade-offs between passengers and fuel.

Limitations

No autothrottle, no HomeSafe, no touchscreen

The TBM 850 predates the advanced automation era of the TBM family. It has no autothrottle (arrives on the 940 in 2019), no HomeSafe Autoland (940), and no Garmin G3000 touchscreen (930). For an owner-pilot who flies long missions in night IMC, the lack of these safety nets is a real difference compared to current TBM 940/960s.

Curiosities

Approx. 340 units produced in 7 years

Between 2006 and 2013, Socata/Daher delivered approximately 340 TBM 850 units before the transition to the TBM 900 (which adopted an aerodynamic cone redesign, winglets and a new 5-blade propeller). The 850 is today the most popular entry point to the TBM family on the used market, with prices between US$ 1.3-2.2 million, attractive for an upgrade from a Cirrus SR22T or Piper M500.
