About the Diamond DA50 RG

The Diamond DA50 RG (2020+) is the newest single-engine Diamond — a five-seat retractable single with composite construction, Austro AE330 diesel (300 hp, larger than DA40's AE300), Garmin G1000 NXi avionics, retractable gear and ~181 kt cruise. The DA50 RG extends Diamond's composite- diesel philosophy into the high-performance retractable single segment that has historically been dominated by Cirrus SR22, Beechcraft Bonanza and Mooney Ovation/Acclaim. With Jet-A operating economics and modern composite construction, the DA50 RG offers a distinctive alternative to Avgas-powered competitors.

Buying a Used Diamond DA50 RG

Every Diamond DA50 RG faces a mandatory 2,000-hour overhaul, so the single biggest factor in used price is how much time remains before that overhaul is due — a fresh-overhaul airframe can be worth a large share of the $28,000 overhaul cost more than one approaching its limit.

What to check before buying

  • Time to overhaul — hours and years remaining to the 2,000-hour limit; this dominates resale value more than total time.
  • Logbook completeness — continuous, gap-free maintenance records; missing logs cut value and complicate financing.
  • Damage history — any prior accident, hard landing or blade strike; cross-check the registration against accident databases.
  • Avionics — a glass panel vs steam gauges materially changes price.
  • Pre-buy inspection — always commission an independent inspection by a type-experienced mechanic before money changes hands.
