Piper PA-46-500T Aircraft departing Inverness Airfield Highland Scotland UK


The Piper PA-46 Malibu, known plainly as the Piper Malibu, is a light aircraft that is manufactured by The Piper Aircraft Company of the United States. The aircraft is powered by a single engine and has the capacity for one pilot and five passengers. Early Malibus were all piston-engined, but a turboprop version, the Malibu Meridian, is also available. The piston powered Malibus may be converted to turboprop with the Jetprop DLX conversion. The aircraft is the third pressurized cabin class piston powered aircraft with only one engine to ever reach the market (the Mooney M22 and Cessna P210 Centurion being the others). It is sold mainly for civilian customers; small airlines (such as air tour companies) may also include the aircraft on their fleet.
