Can the TBM function as bush plane ?

Featured Replies

Uh, while the TBM is not made as a bush plane, it is powerful enough, and slow flying enough to get into short strips. I had a blast flying into a ton of grass strips in Idaho with it. It is definitely ok to use in the sim for this kind of flying. That is why I like this airplane, capable for many situations. 

pfff runways ??  real bush planes do not need airstrips - especially when they have a landing roll of less than 10 feet

Surely there had to be a Kodiak at some point from someone, and Land and Seaplane version with floats. If done by existing developers, Lionheart Creations, or Thandra,  it a Buy for me. I have the FSX version by LHC and the XP11 version from Thandra, both are great!

Asobo, at some point when you are done with the important fixes and such, add water runways, and some docks. I can wait until the major stuff needs to be done!

... and you were lucky .

We had to gas up our 12 hp Wright flyers with 40 octane boat fuel from a local dockyard.

I know that in MSFS all the planes can do almost anything, including landing an A320 in Lukla 🙂. Therefore, I can take the TBM anywhere. 

But in reality will one dare to land his TBM on a short grass/dirt strip ? 

There is a reason Daher bought Kodiak 🙂
