Hey guys welcome to a brand new video. Today we will be taking a look at some of the fastest single engine turboprop civilian airplanes. We also did a video on the fastest single engine military airplanes if you're interested in that it will be linked below!

#5 - Piper M600/SLS
In 2015, Piper introduced the M600, as an upgrade to the M500. It received its FAA certification on June 18, 2016. Between June 2016 and March 2018, 50 were delivered, mostly in the U.S. and mostly are owner-flown. When Piper introduced the M600, we exceeded industry expectations for performance and operational ease in a single-engine pressurized turboprop. A clean-sheet designed wing was a key foundational enhancements that paved the way for product growth. Now we are using that platform to raise the bar in safety, luxury and support. Introducing the M600/SLS, setting new standards for aircraft in every category, meeting the highest standard in general aviation.

#4 - Pilatus PC-12NGX
The Pilatus PC-12 is a single-engine turboprop passenger and cargo aircraft manufactured by Pilatus Aircraft of Switzerland. The main market for the aircraft is corporate transport and regional airliner operators. The PC-12 is the best-selling pressurized single-engine turbine-powered aircraft in the world. The cabins of PC-12 Around the world is inspired in part by the famous car manufacturer BMW. Pilatus says "Together with BMW Designworks we are pleased to offer the most comfortable and modern cabin experience ever in the PC-12 NGX" which is too inspired by Pilatus' own business jet the PC-24.

#3 - Evolution Turbine EVOT-850
The Lancair Evolution is an American pressurized, low wing, four-place, single engine light aircraft, made from carbon fiber composite, developed by Lancair and supplied as an amateur-built kit by Evolution Aircraft. The Evolution can be powered by a Lycoming piston engine or a Pratt & Whitney PT6 engine.

#2 - TBM 940
The TBM is a high performance single-engine turboprop light business and utility aircraft. The TBM 940 offers the ultimate developments in avionics and comfort for a general aviation aircraft. As an evolution of the TBM 900 and of the TBM 930, the TBM 940 retains the air frame commonality with its predecessors Incorporating a variety of aluminum and steel alloys, titanium as well as advanced composite materials, the TBM air frame offers unmatched structural strength and durability at the lowest possible weight. From its inception, the TBM aircraft family employed a fail-safe air frame design, including the use of multiple load paths, a crack-stopper band, and an optimized number of access panels to maximize structural life and sub-system reliability, while also minimizing repair-cycle times.

#1 - Epic E1000 GX
Next, The Epic E1000 GX is an American single-engine, six-seat, turboprop light aircraft under development by Epic Aircraft of Bend, Oregon. Epics aim was that the E1000 GX will be the fastest single-engine civil aircraft at its time of introduction. On Epic Aircraft official website this is how they describe the aircraft From urban city center to remote backcountry airstrips, the versatile E1000 GX provides access to more airports than any other aircraft in its class. With speed, performance, superior short field and slow handling capabilities, trailing link landing gear, and full reversing prop, Epic expands your horizons from the concrete jungle to the tropical jungle and beyond
