Nashville Socata TBM 700 Charter

Nashville charter trips into the smaller airports of the Southeast often come down to a turboprop, which reaches strips that most jets cannot use.

The Socata TBM 700 entered service in 1990. It seats 5 to 6 with a published range of 1,400 nautical miles and a cruise speed of 300 knots. The aircraft has a service ceiling of 31,000 feet, 30 cubic feet of baggage volume and a lavatory.

Why the Socata TBM 700 Fits Nashville

With 1,400 nautical miles of published range, it covers trips from Nashville to destinations such as Charlotte, New York and Aspen, allowing for reserves and routing. June is the busiest month on the Nashville event calendar, with CMA Fest and the NASCAR weekend at Nashville Superspeedway, so aircraft for those dates are worth booking early.

Around Nashville this opens up the smaller airports as well, including John C. Tune (KJWN) on the west side, Smyrna (KMQY) to the southeast and Music City Executive (KXNX) in Gallatin, where tower hours are worth checking before a late departure. Whether the aircraft can use a particular airport on your date is a calculation the operator makes for that weight and that day’s weather, and your advisor will confirm it before anything is booked.

How Nashville Clients Use the Socata TBM 700

Turboprops suit trips from Nashville across Tennessee and the Southeast, from Memphis and Knoxville to the Gulf Coast. They cost less per hour than a jet, and on trips under about two hours the time difference against a light jet is often small.

Tell us the route, the passenger count and what is traveling with you, and your advisor will confirm whether this aircraft is the right fit or suggest a better one.
