Hi there

I assume that most of us have heard about the TBM 900 th= at went down near Jamaica. it seems to be
a loss of pressuriza= tion problem that overwhelmed the pilot.
a TBM has a similar (u= pper) speed envelop and performance envelop to our Lancair 4P and Evolution= .

this story is a= bout a highly skilled=2C 5=2C000 hour pilot who died in his brand new TBM. = I do not know the details
of his flying. but i do know that he= sent his "chief pilot" to pick up his new TBM 900 in France
