Where the DA62 dispatches under charter rules

Verdict per regime (private, charter dry and wet) across 465 Brazilian public runways, with the margin in meters.

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

  2. 2015 - From the DA52 project to the DA62, certified in 2015

    Diamond presented the project in March 2012 as the DA52; the prototype flew in April of that year and the production version was renamed DA62 in 2014. European certification (EASA) came in April 2015 and American (FAA) in February 2016.

Brazil Fleet

The Diamond DA62 is a 7-seat (pilot included) piston twin with a 1,288 nm range and a 181 kt cruise speed, in production since 2015. The up-to-date RAB-ANAC registration count is in the Brazil Fleet section of this page, and the breakdown by status (operational, registration-mark reservation, suspended) is in the model's Analytics.

According to the EASA type certificate data sheet (TCDS EASA.IM.A.629, issue of 16 Aug 2023), the DA62 is a low-wing composite airplane with retractable tricycle landing gear and a T-tail, certified in the normal category (CS-23). The data sheet lists two Austro Engine E4P engines running on jet fuel (Jet A-1), three-blade MT propellers, a 20,000 ft maximum operating altitude and a 2,300 kg maximum takeoff mass with modification MAM 62-001. It carries one pilot and four passengers, or six with modification OAM 62-019.

According to the same data sheet, the design originated at Diamond in Austria and, since 15 Nov 2017, responsibility for the type has been with Diamond Aircraft Industries in Canada, with Transport Canada as the design authority.

Curiosities and highlights

Benefits

Diesel twin that burns like a single

The two 2.0-liter Austro AE330s burn Jet A instead of aviation gasoline, with total consumption close to 12 gallons per hour at 60 percent power. This reduces cost per hour and dependence on 100LL, which is scarce in the interior.

Single-lever FADEC simplifies twin-engine operation

Each engine is controlled by a single lever, thanks to the FADEC, with no separate mixture or propeller adjustment. In case of failure the system automatically feathers the propeller of the affected engine.

Limitations

Ceiling and speed below a turboprop

Being piston-powered, the DA62 has a service ceiling of 20,000 ft and cruises at around 180 kt; with one engine inoperative the ceiling drops to about 11,000 ft.

Curiosities

Brazilian assembly by Aeromot from 2025

Aeromot, Diamond's distributor in Brazil since 2016, announced assembly of the DA62 in Porto Alegre, with a goal of more than 50 units per year for the Southern Cone.
