en.Wedoany.com Reported - Daher announced at the EAA AirVenture show that it has launched an expansion of its Stuart, Florida facility for TBM aircraft production and is broadening its service and distribution network for single-engine turboprops.

The company recently delivered its 401st Kodiak turboprop, including 370 Series 100 and 31 extended-range Series 900 aircraft. The TBM series has accumulated 1,319 deliveries, with over 30 new TBM980 units delivered so far this year, equipped with the Garmin G3000 PRIME avionics system.

The TBM980 emphasizes connectivity, allowing users to access real-time aircraft status and perform remote wake-up operations via the Me and My TBM app to check battery and fuel levels. The model also offers an optional flush-mounted Starlink Mini installation bracket and a dedicated 100W USB-C power supply.

Daher CEO Nicolas Chabbert noted a tight market for late-model used TBM aircraft, with TBM960 and 940 prices near original purchase values. Of the 218 TBM960s produced, only three have entered the used market, while just four of 124 TBM940s are available for sale.

For Kodiak customer support, two new Network service stations have been added at Blackhawk Group facilities in Camarillo, California (KCMA) and Glendale, Arizona (KGEU). Blackhawk Group previously received approval for a Kodiak service center in Wasilla, Alaska (KWWA), operated by Silver Sky, which Blackhawk Group announced its acquisition of in January 2026. Blackhawk Group's service coverage includes Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, and Utah.

Another new Network service center is Thai Aviation Industries in Bangkok, which will provide maintenance and parts distribution services at its Nakhon Pathom Airport (VTPR) facility.

Daher has also added Muncie Aviation as a Kodiak distributor. The company has been an authorized TBM distributor and Network service station since 2002. Headquartered at Delaware County Regional Airport (KMIE) in Muncie, Indiana, Muncie Aviation's regional coverage includes Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin.
