Have you compared direct operating costs between the two birds? I'd be curious to know.

Sorry mshac, been gone for two weeks solid; TBM factory orientation, SimCom ground and sim training, then SimCom flight training. I now have 36+ hours of TBM9 time; what a machine!
Regarding comparing expenses, none for me; all my personal flying is covered. TBM uses 45 ~ 70 GPH per hour, depending on the performance profiles... 280K ~ 320K; FL240 ~ FL310.
