Piper PA-46-600TP M600
The Piper M600 is a single-engine turboprop built on the pressurised Malibu/Meridian airframe lineage, offering owner-pilots turbine reliability and jet-like cruising altitude in an aircraft they can fly themselves. Its pressurised cabin lets it climb above much of the weather that unpressurised piston singles must fly around. A later SLS version added an automatic emergency-landing system that can detect pilot incapacitation and land the aircraft itself. It sits at the top of Piper's single-engine lineup, just below the company's own light jet, the M700 Fury.
