Socata TB-21 Trinidad Aircraft

Originally built by SOCATA, now part of Daher (TBM series).

The Socata TB-21 Trinidad is the turbocharged high-performance Trinidad for buyers who want a roomy European low-wing single with altitude capability and more speed ambition than the fixed-gear Tobago. It is more complex than the TB-10 because turbocharging and retractable-gear ownership change the prebuy. Compared with a Mooney M20, the TB-21 emphasizes cabin comfort and European-aircraft character over maximum efficiency.
