10 Most Efficient Family Airplanes
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- For pilots with growing families, a six-seat airplane can make perfect sense, you’ll be able to carry almost everything you need, and fly a little faster, higher, and farther at the lowest possible cost. A six-seat airplane whether a piston single or twin, a turboprop, or a light jet offers exceptional value. This video is not about family airplanes with the lowest fuel consumption, in no order, this video contains top 10 family airplanes that offer the best possible performance with the least amount of fuel consumption.

I think a Cessna 150 is a great family airplane... assuming its just you and your cat.
Dam right about that
Lol good one
😂😂
No fuel is allowed with cat.
For me, it’d need to be a hamster. A small one.
Why did I start clicking on airplane videos? My god I need to start playing Powerball. 😂
I'm doing research for some creative writing and I'm so glad I found this video. Thanks for making!
Seems that you missed the PA-32 family (Cherokee 6, Lance, Saratoga line). I can carry six, but most often carry 4 people with four sets of 170 - 180 cm skis, boots, and winter gear for ski trips, or golf clubs during the summer. Club seating in the rear and a massive cargo door. Best of all, it is a single engine so maintenance / operational costs are reasonable and you can pick one up for a descent price. Recognize you are looking at aircraft currently being produced, but for many of us with families that want to fly, a current production aircraft isn't in-the-cards.
Yes... I only considered airplanes that are still in production
@@Dwaynesaviation Pilatus ?
A descent price, as opposed to an ascending one?
@@Dwaynesaviation Why did you only consider aircraft currently in production? The vast majority of airplane sales are used aircraft.
A Cherokee 6 is certainly a good value, and still a decent performer
Great research, excellent format. --- Thanks for the upload. ---
Thank you very much Lance
I concur...my first choice would also be the Diamond DA 50 CD 300. Wow, what a plane. And the demonstrator in that blue paint scheme is fantastic.
Excellent stuff bro
A broke man here watching planes🤣
Good 👍
.... at least, you can fly in your dreams 😂😂😂
Great video! Thanks for the vid! I am thinking about moving from my Lancair to a larger plane in the future and this helped!! Keep it up!😎😎😎😎😎😎
Loved the video.
That was a beautiful video. These airplanes are gorgeous. I love your narration. Love the voice over. Love the editing.
Thank you very much Roosevelt.. Please where are you from?
@@Dwaynesaviation I'm from Haiti
Thank you very much....
We'll keep making videos like this for you...
You can request a topic
Well done video, good narrative, informative with the right data. Thank you.
The Millennium Falcon. 😆✌️
Don't let the comments about your voice over work get you down. With continued effort you will improve your English speaking ability. If you are passionate about making videos you should continue to do so.
Thank you very much Joey
Didnt even notice any issue with his English...didnt even notice an accent until I read your comment n really focused on his voice
@@daviejay5326 Same. I actually understood this perfectly so ignore the hate comments
I am just so pissed about all the haters saying he has a bad english. It’s sharp, infos are correct and it’s a hard work the montage. Nice work man !
@@Dwaynesaviation Your English is fine mate. Great content, you showed me some planes I was unaware of. Keep up the good work!
Adding subtitles with technical data would greatly increase the value of this video. Just reading text with a lot of data is not a good solution.
Yeah, I agree, I was searching at times
trying to figure out what he was saying ,
not all the time, but from time to time..
Give me a Piper Aztec. That is the true Suburban of the air. If you can fit it in it will carry it. There is also the Cherokee 6. Their cheap in price and they are available in any configuration imaginable.
Agree. I have a turbo Aztruck and I love it.
Dang right. Big fan of the Aztec!
My favorite would have to be the cirus vision jet, mainly because the 350 mph. Not to mention the sleek look it has.
It seems like it got less efficient over time, not more. I don't Have a license so maybe I'm not understanding.. but saving a dollar per hour here or there amd having leather does not really make up for paying an extra million on the initial purchase does it? Is this like a long term leasing option where you use the thing for a few hours per month, or is it just a favorites list? Im trying to understand the industry with only a single cell layer skin deep understanding
13:55 Daher TBM 940 in GTA V is the Velum and I love this plane ✈️
I like the da62 ! The disgn is a 💯
and how many of these planes are affordable by the average GA Pilot? Family Planes...no one I know.
I don’t understand why the Pilatus PC-12 isn’t on this list??? It is the ultimate suburban of the sky! And it is a very fuel efficient single turboprop. If you are going to put the TBM on your list then you really need to have the PC-12 also.
It has more than 6 seats though. Way more expensive too. Not really a "family" plane.
I was gonna say the same thing... I love PC-12 NGX even it's a 5 million dollars single turboprop plane with 1,803 nm range plus lavatory in it.
These days insurance is so stringent I was told that a pc-12 (and I assume the same for a TBM) requires a professional pilot, not just dad with a commercial license, so yes these aren't really family planes.
@@placidbeach Relatively speaking, it's probably cheaper to be that "professional pilot" if the definition means 1,500hrs or so PIC (dad will prob have that anyway) and ATP (not exactly hard to pick up). Have the wife get her ratings too, especially for the aircraft requiring a Type.
@@likeawhispr actually the guy I asked about it clarified he meant like a literal full-time pilot. Otherwise that's good news! It's still good news, I didn't realize that about the ATP.
There's more to just fuel when owning am aircraft. Check for insurance premiums and maintenance
Great vídeo congrats Also Nice back soundtrack
Diamond DA62 a 6 to 7 pax twin piston burning Jet A-1 and easier to flight than a single is unbeatable.
Maybe if they finally give it counter rotating props
@@SkyBiscoff you have a point but it appears that the three computers controlling the whole thing compensate it.
@@Santos.Sarmento I seriously hope they do a better job than the 4 on the DA-42NG i fly that for a living and have had more ECU failures than I care to count. Plus computers do nothing for the horrendous Left turning tendencies that airplane has
@@SkyBiscoff I never experimented them personally so I’m just writing about others opinions and never heard about problems with the ECU (but didn’t made a deep research on it either). Good to know yours, gave me reason to learn better. Thanks.
Not really a 5 or 7 pax aircraft. Just because there is that many seats doesn’t mean you can fill them.
Thank you for sharing! Not going to buy a cheap aurcraft and can not afford one that has high degree of safety record. ( does not matter whose fault, need a "close to fool" proof aircraft!! ) Thanks again Dwayne!
You can't avoid mentioning take off distance and whether pressurized. Also an Infograph for each one and comparative, at the end. Otherwise good. Thx
Seems like you left Service Ceiling out of your data. Crucial information for anyone planning a cross country trip.
verygood😃😃😃👍👍
Bonanzas don’t cone with TKS. It can be had in the aftermarket, but not from the factory. Barons aren’t turbocharged. At least not in this century.
Awesome planes , the Diamonds aren't
all that attractive to my eyes, but they are
supposedly fantastic performance values.
The JMB VL3 Evolution would fit into this
I think, unless I missed it, + it comes with great
stall recovery manors.
Diamond is owned by Chy-nah now, though Austrian genes are fantastic, I wouldn't want one for empowering their military with the profits and development support
Hard to overlook Cirrus aircrafts with their CAPS parachute safety systems
Where do we buy these privet aircraft
SHALOM BROTHER. I LOVE YOUR VOICE OVER. WELL DONE.
🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
I liked the video.
The not-needed music competes with the dialogue.
For someone who doesn’t know what they want I would recommend the cessna 206. It’s probably the best price for the amount of plane you get and the maintenance won’t make you cry like owning turbine does.
Good choice. Cessna is really - the first step. But my experience differs.
I can recommend Beechcraft Bonanza.
Piper malibu 💜
That’s a good analogy comparing C 206 to large SUVs. DA 62 is a nice new twin but the cost is too high to justify it. At 1.2 Million you can get a nice clean used Citation Jets.
After all COVID experiments, the situation had changed. Citations for 1,2 - is very difficult to find in good condition. Because they are able to make long-range(about 2000 nm) flights, they became popular again, among little companies and pilots.
Where is Cesna 421C?
Pilates PC-12 NGX, is the best all around value for comfort, speed, operating / maintenance costs, fuel consumption
5 million USD price tag and near 3 dollar per nautical mile DOC doesn't really seem that "value"
2 RV-10 can fit the bill.
You said that the FA50 burns 9 gallons per hour, and with a JetA cost of $/gallon, fuel cost is $36/gallon. You meant to say $36/hour.
15:39 - Announcer says that it's a Diamond DA-50 (which it is), but the label says that it's a Vision Jet!
My bad 😂😂😂😂... Nobody else caught that, except you .... You're smart
permeable
I like the RC model Bonanza at 5:32 so even your pet hamster can enjoy flying.
No mention of “useful load”?! Useful Load has specific definition in aviation. Some of these planes can not make the range distance he narrates with a “family”. We’ll, if dad is a jockey, mom is a gymnast, and the only child is still an infant then maybe. But that maybe means the only luggage is a plastic bag with one change of underwear for everybody. The weight of the fuel needed to make the stated ranges takes up a significant amount of useful load and in some cases not much useful load remains for carrying anything that distance. Over the decades many people have been killed because pilots behaved like the number of seats were some indication of how much they can put in a plane. Neither max gross weight rating or number of seats tells you anything about how much a plane can carry. Only the Useful Load figure tells you. Some of these planes do not belong on a “family” plane list because of nearly useless Useful Load.
Beechcraft Bonanza - my dream
I started getting my license to take my family of 5 places. I drive truck for a living. I make 65k gross a year. Im finding there is absolutely no way i could afford my own plane. Flying is only for the rich.
Become a owner op and then you can have a hobby plane
Good idea, if beside voice of narrator there is also a written one in bottom of photo.and video.
The Best family aircraft that I would buy would be a TBM or Cessna Caravan
Piper PA-34 Seneca
The most efficient family airplane is Cessna Conquest II !!!
What about the Saab 340
You should include used aircraft....
@5:30 A radio controlled model airplane.?...you could not find a photo of a real G36?
Your hourly operating costs seem to only include fuel burn only what about maintenance and overhaul costs the King Air for example is in the $1000/ hr all in.
I said: hourly fuel cost, not hourly operating cost
Total costs are NOT in the average families budget I would bet.
What's the name of your theme music?
7:22 isn’t that an m600?
I mean, it’s clearly a turboprop
I like the cirrus
I took a short trip on a small plane once. Here's what it felt like: You're on top of a piece of plywood that's hooked up to a car being driven down a dirt road by a drunk. Never again.
Do you have any info on pipers m500 and m600
The voice..lol
I just can't
Unrealistic choices for the average pilot looking for a plane to haul around family or friends. Lots of lower priced used planes out there that will accomplish the job.
I flow many twin on the past, the queen is the Beech Baron 58P!!!
Fuel Price are at a all high and the older Models Skyhawks with the 145 Continental engine is the way to go now
I'm more a fan of the early '70's Skyhawks with the Lycoming 0-320-E2D engines. That low-compression, 150-horse 4-cylinder is darn near bulletproof. Lower maintenance and higher TBO than the 6-cylinder Continentals.
Is great vidyo. Voice over man had awesome good time in United States of USA!!! I meet soo many womens and have so many drink.
The twin Diamond "climes like a rocket at a little over 1,000fpm..." Rocket? I think I'd opt for a 450hp turbo prop conversion on a Cessna 206. The TBM (or PC12) would be my ultimate choice if I didn't absolutely need a twin.
Then your fuel burn goes from around 10gph to somewhere near 50
That adds up quick
@@Meowface. The fuel price is offset by how much the 206 can haul and by the increased safety margin and performance latitude of the turbine engine. People fly single engine over the Sierras and the ocean and large lakes all the time, but that's not something I'd recommend, especially if you're in business. Fuel cost isn't what I'd be bracing for with a turbine engine - it's the OTHER costs, like having to replace a turbine wheel or some mess. Today, when it comes to performing work - single engine turbine is hard to beat for a good work/profit ratio. Piston twin is just out of its league today. 2 thirds liability, worry, and poor performance and 1 third cheap to operate compared to turbine solutions.
I thought the intro was an ad
Why did you quote MPH, aircraft today use Knots

Sí fuera posible enviar él vídeo actual en idioma Español Gracias.
Forget about the comments on your voice .... please !!! Did they pay for this content ? Thanks for the good info ...
Thank you very much
OK but you left your sound system running which makes it irritating to try and listen to the specs
So which is best for smuggling copious amounts of cocaine? I'm asking for a friend...
TBM 940 all the way for that kind of money.
What about the PA30 twin comanche?
It looks like he limited himself to models still in production...
Nice video but I quit flying my family around in small planes after a few friends died. You either have the time to make the money to afford one of these or you have the time to stay current as a competent pilot. Few have both.
How did they die?
These prices are giving me a mini heart attack
I am glad the Kennedys had a drunk 12 year old available to narrate this video.
i always wanted to know what's the cheapest plane ... uncle Ahmed has been bugging me forever, can you make a video about how much jet fuel each can carry?
Hi
When a duck is speaking about aviation, we listen.
I was looking at getting a Cirrus SR22 but now thinking the Diamond DA62. Anyone have one?
look at lancair iv too
I would look at a flight school. they may have one you can try. My buddy flew them for his Multi and ATP training in Germany and loved it. I have yet to fly a Diamond but have sat in them and absolutely love the cockpit design. way better than any Cessna I fly.
This narrator voice! 😂
Tecnam p2010??
looking for the price of two seats
i think the best its the cessna 150 or cirrus sr22
LOL RC plane @5:40 ROFL!!!
Why usually these small planes have design like from 50s.
Eclipse 550
6:40 - Slip of the tongue. That's not a Meridian!
Don't know bro. Should we be discussing cost to fly instead of fuel cost? Because we all know that per hour fly cost ( engine maintenance, oils and lubricants, fuel) is much much expensive than fuel cost alone
Efficient family airplanes if price isn't an issue, of course throwing money at planes, you could get the best one lmfao
Are you talking through a letterbox?
If you need shamshing shmaller, try one with 300 horsh power... Where do people talk like that? LOL.
we're 11 members!
8:54 ✊🏽
I don’t know a lot about all the airplanes you mentioned but the couple I do know about you gave several pieces of incorrect information. Thus I take the entire video to be unreliable
"DA 62 climgs like a rocket, at a little more than 1000fpm." Ok, boomer. Fairly anemic climb rate.
lol, I noticed that too, I wouldn't call that
a rocket exactly, then the next plane had
a faster rate, but lost its rocket status. lol
Is this a computer talking?
How is the pipistrel panthera not here..
