Acquiring the right aircraft on behalf of a client is not an easy task. At European Aircraft Sales we are experts in examining the market, following leads and trails to find off-market planes that live up to our clients' needs and fit their budget. Having the experience and expertise to know a good aircraft deal from a bad one is indespensable!
The overall condition and maintenance of the aircraft, equipment installed and, of course, the price all have to fit the wants and needs of the client.

Very recently we have closed another deal on a great Pilatus PC12, after a client tasked us with finding a fitting aircraft at the right price. The market has been moving very fast over the last year, and prices on especially PC12s have gone up and down very quickly. Finding an aircraft that checked all the boxes and still could be bought at the right price was a challenge, but we managed to find the right one!

There are many more exciting deals happening at the moment, but taking the chance to celebrate another PC12 through the door is important!

Blue skies and happy landings to you all!

The first INTEGRAL R in Northern Europe has officially arrived in Denmark — a proud and exciting milestone for us and our collaboration with the French aircraft manufacturer AURA AERO.

The journey from Toulouse to Odense

European Aircraft Sales’ Joakim Waismaa took delivery of the brand-new INTEGRAL R – OY-WTF – on October 6 at a wonderful ceremony at AURA AERO’s headquarters in Toulouse, France. On October 7–8, Joakim and Nils Harald Hansen flew the aircraft home from Toulouse to Odense, Denmark. This flight marked the first appearance of the aircraft in Scandinavia and highlighted the excitement around our partnership with AURA AERO.

Planned stops and scenic moments

Departing Toulouse late on October 7, Joakim and Nils made a stop in Reims due to daylight limitations. On October 8, they continued from Reims to Groningen, Netherlands, for a planned break and additional fuel before the final leg. The aircraft landed at Hans Christian Andersen Airport (EKOD), Odense, later that afternoon in beautiful weather, welcomed by airport firefighters with a water salute, as well as colleagues and friends.

Pilot impressions: A joy to fly

“Flying the INTEGRAL R from Toulouse was a fantastic experience,” says Joakim, who piloted the aircraft on the journey north. “It’s an incredibly well-balanced and responsive aircraft — light on the controls, precise, and a real joy to fly. You can tell it’s designed by people who really love flying.”

Sharing the experience

“It was great to share the flight with Nils,” Joakim adds. “Bringing the first INTEGRAL R to Denmark was a proud and memorable moment — and now we’re eager to show it to our clients.”

AURA AERO and the INTEGRAL R

AURA AERO, founded in 2018, has rapidly made its mark in European aviation. In 2024, the company received its first EASA CS-23 type certificate for the INTEGRAL R — a two-seater tailwheel aircraft with aerobatic capabilities, designed for both training and sport flying.

Exclusive dealership in Northern Europe

European Aircraft Sales has represented AURA AERO since April 2025, acting as its exclusive dealer for Scandinavia, Finland, the Baltic states, and the Netherlands. With the arrival of the first INTEGRAL R in Denmark, pilots and flight schools in the region can now experience the aircraft firsthand — and discover what makes it such a remarkable new addition to the market.

We have just closed another fine Pilatus PC12, this time as an off-market deal. We had met with the owner and understood his wants and needs in terms of a quick and easy deal, but without large scale advertising. That sent us on the hunt for a serious buyer with cash ready, and we managed to find one quickly, that needed an aircraft just like this. We negotiated the price and terms, handled all the paperwork, and met with both parties to finalise everything last Thursday.
This one is a 2014-model in very nice condition, and the new owner just took delivery! 

We wish them safe landings and lots of tailwind!

Later this spring we will be at EBACE in Geneva and Oshkosh in the US as well, but more on that later.

LAKELAND, FL. March 28, 2023 – Piper Aircraft has frequently led the General Aviation industry by incorporating the newest technology into its product lineup. Examples include being the first manufacturer to certify Garmin’s GNS 430, and more recently, Garmin’s Collier award-winning Autoland technology. Piper Aircraft is committed to maintaining that leadership position by providing innovative,safety-enhancing technologies throughout its fleet. Today, Piper is pleased to announce a suite of connected aircraft management capabilities available on the G3000- equipped M600/SLS later this spring.

Those capabilities are enabled by Garmin’s new PlaneSync™ technology, which includes a 4G LTE Cellular and Wi-Fi® datalink that streamlines pre-flight and post-flight activities. With PlaneSync™, M600 owners can remotely check key aircraft and flight planning information, including fuel quantity, aircraft location, oil temperature, battery voltage, the current METAR at the aircraft’s location, and more via the Garmin Pilot™ application. PlaneSync™ technology also automatically downloads databases wirelessly while the aircraft is powered down and the owner is away, eliminating the need to manually update databases.

The latest M600/SLS will also include a host of additional updates to existing G3000 software, first previewed to Piper customers at NBAA-BACE 2022 in Orlando, FL. The updated software includes enhancements to the synthetic vision system, onboard weather radar, navigation, flight planning, checklists, weight and balance calculation capabilities, and stabilized approach monitoring. One of the most significant additions is the new 3D SafeTaxi™, which expands situational awareness with an advanced 3D depiction of the ground environment, including airport markers, buildings, and other position markings. Improved taxiway routing guidance provides both graphical and textual information, supporting the pilot at even the most complex airports. Additionally, M600/SLS customers will benefit from glide range ring functionality designed to improve situational awareness in the event of an engine power loss emergency.

“At Piper, we take pride in leading the general aviation industry in innovations inside and outside the cockpit,” said Ron Gunnarson, Vice President of Sales, Marketing, and Customer Support. “We are grateful to continue to build on this tradition of excellence. Our M600/SLS customers will enjoy the convenience of being connected to their M600 and real-time aircraft status via their Garmin Pilot App.”

About the Piper M600/SLS

The Piper M600/SLS with the HALO Safety System is the first general aviation aircraft certified with Garmin Autoland. The revolutionary system supports digital technology that safely lands the aircraft at the nearest suitable airport in the event that the pilot is incapacitated. Additionally, the GarminG3000 avionics suite in current-production M600/SLS aircraft includes auto throttle, Autoland, Emergency Descent Mode, Electronic Stability Protection, Surface Watch, SafeTaxi, all of which are designed to enhance the safe operation of the aircraft. Beyond the flight deck, the six-seat M600/SLS is powered by a Pratt & Whitney PT6A-42A 600 SHP engine. The aircraft has a maximum cruise speed of 274 ktas/507 km/h, a maximum range of 1,658 nm/2,748 km, and a standard useful load of 2,400 lbs/1,089 kg.

Press release from Piper Aircraft at AERO Friedrichshafen 2023:

Piper Aircraft is proud to announce the ability to use Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) in all PA-46 based, Piper single engine turbine-powered aircraft, including the M600/SLS, M500, and Meridian. SAF is not only FAA approved via SAIB NE-11-56R4, but is available for use in every country that turbine M-Class aircraft operate.

All jet fuel that meets the requirements of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) D7566
Standard Specification for Aviation Turbine Fuel Containing Synthesized Hydrocarbons can be utilized in Piper turbine-powered aircraft. Typically, this fuel is made from fatty acids or other synthetic components, and is acceptable for use on aircraft and engines certified for use with D1655 fuel, more commonly known as traditional Jet A and Jet A-1 fuel. Therefore, the new SAF includes the designation as Jet A and Jet A-1. The introduction of SAF to the Piper turboprop line will not require a change in aircraft placarding or Pilot’s Operating Handbooks.

This announcement comes at the heels of another recent commitment from Piper to promote sustainability in
general aviation, initially revealed at EAA AirVenture 2022. Piper Aircraft and CAE are collaborating on an electrically powered conversion kit via a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) for in-service Archer TX aircraft. Upon certification, CAE plans to convert two-thirds of their existing Piper Archer TX training fleet, and will be the first to develop a curriculum for new pilots to conduct training in an electric airplane. These Archer TX advancements will significantly reduce carbon emissions, while preparing pilots to operate greener, electric aircraft.

“We are pleased with the continuous improvements made to our products, especially in regards to environmental consciousness,” said Ron Gunnarson, Vice President of Sales, Marketing, and Customer Support. “Prioritizing sustainability in our aircraft as technological advancements allow is important to Piper Aircraft, first seen in our electric Archer TX/CAE partnership and now with Sustainable Aviation Fuel compatibility in our turboprops. We are committed to a safer, greener aviation industry.”

It's not usually the summer that is the most busy time for us, but 2023 is a little different!
This week Bjarne went to the US with a very happy client to take delivery of a brand new Piper M600/SLS and help ferry it home. This 2023-model is equipped with everything you could ever want, and it will give its new owner many happy hours in the sky!

The flight from the Piper Aircraft factory in Vero Beach, Florida to our home base in Odense, Denmark, took just 15 hours and 40 minutes of flying, with stops in Bangor, Goose Bay, and Reykjavik. The owner and Bjarne reported nothing but easy flying and good times - "almost boring, actually, except that the plane is wonderful to fly."

On a different note, we are taking a company trip and joining our colleagues at Piper for the EAA expo in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, next week! We will be there Monday-Thursday, and we look forward to having a blast with friends, clients and collaborators!
If you are there, please stop by and say hello!
