About the Socata TBM 700
The Socata TBM 700 (1990-2003 Socata production, transitional 2003-2006 EADS Socata era) is the founding aircraft of the modern single-engine turboprop owner-pilot segment. Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-64 turbine with 700 shaft horsepower, pressurised cabin to FL310, ~300 kt cruise, six-seat cabin. The TBM 700 transformed the owner-pilot high-performance segment by delivering pressurised single-engine turboprop capability at acquisition costs that put it within reach of accomplished private pilots. Over 300 TBM 700s were produced over the Socata/early-EADS era. The 700 remains a capable cross-country single-engine turboprop today with proper engine program enrollment, mandate compliance and corrosion-free airframe.

Buying a Used Socata TBM 700
Buying a Socata TBM 700 centres on its turbine engine(s) — time to overhaul, hot-section history and any engine maintenance program — alongside airframe hours and cycles.
What to check before buying
- Turbine engine status — hot-section and overhaul time, trend monitoring and whether the engine is on a maintenance program.
- Airframe hours & cycles — high-utilisation turboprops accumulate cycles quickly; cycles can matter more than hours.
- Equipment — cargo pod, floats/amphibian gear, de-ice and avionics all affect value.
- Corrosion & logbooks — continuous records and a corrosion inspection, especially on float or marine-operated aircraft.
- Pre-buy inspection — commission an independent pre-buy by a type-experienced shop.
