For buyers I think the issue is both reasonable time and a predictable time. If you look at the Diamond on Order spreadsheet, the actual delivery times range from 8 to 25 months and the variance from the expected delivery when the purchase contract was signed to the actual delivery also varies widel...

Yes, though this may be useful to others. Sounds like they need a better seal, or it was improperly installed.

OSB 62-040 Rev. 0 Just issued to address this. I’ll post later today.

Upon further research, it seems that DAI is prioritizing MPP production (higher price and margins) over production for private owners which explains the irregular production and delivery of planes for private pilots. The inference is that MPP planes get priority, and private owners slip as needed ba...

How can we obtain more information about this crash?

62.C053 delivered on March 7 and 62.C055 is expected the first week of May. That schedule implies that Diamond Canada is now producing just one DA62 per month.

I have on occasion seen odd results from the updates, but this was my procedure for the last four years in the 40NG - NXi - Phase II, which should be essentially the same as your DA62. The upper MFD slot has the logs and backup of my crew profile. Each month I swap it for another SD card, take it ho...

Would you be happier if Diamond offered to refund your radar money and let you buy it later at the market price and pay additional installation costs?

Good reason to store a complex flight plan so you can quickly reload.

Or with FS210/510 and Foreflight synced to the panel, the current flight plan is always in Foreflight and can be transferred to the panel.
