The ram air inlet, rather than chin style, is my first indicator that it is a 900, but TBM 700 is still correct as all variations are defined under the same type certificate (A60EU-TBM 700). The TBM 850, 900, 910, 930, 940, and 960 are all "trade names".

Matt Smith, it's really the combining transmission which is connected to the driveshaft between the forward and aft transmissions, that controls the synchronization of the rotor system. You can see the air intake on the rear pylon just above the number 1 engine intake cover.

She's a good-looking bird! We had one when I was growing up. Older, I think a '54 or thereabouts, it had the distinct smaller back window too.

The Tri-Pacer was the first airplane I ever flew in, at Northfield Airport in Richmond, Va., Ray Tyson was the pilot. Flew as a Cub Scout, his wife was the den mother. About 1957 or 1958.

FlightAware's picture identification screwed up again!
It's a TBM 900, you can tell by the five blade prop, winglets and inner gear doors.

To add to previous comment: flares range from $35 to $3,000.

Looks great but consider the manpower time and money for some bragging rights. Just like I'm concerned about the flare releases during demo/air show flights. Kind of costly. Look up the costs of the flares. Jim, ol' retired C-130 pilot.

I remember when I worked at the Bozeman airport, we didn't get paid to stand around and take pictures of aircraft. We actually had to work.

...and in particular, under each model number check out the:
Click-N-Go Here to read more on the disposition of the CH-47(letter).
When I poked around, the airframe numbers don't match the format you show, but maybe you can figure it out.
There's a good chance it's been remanufactured into a newer model.
The flag on the fuselage appears to be that of Kazakhstan, which would make sense for a Russian-built airplane.

I'm flying round-trip to Zurich and back in a couple of months on Icelandair, 757-200's the entire trip. I hope I get one of these with the cool livery.

Hi Joe, it is a "B" model as listed in my description. As far as I know, Flight Aware and ICAO don't offer a category for each model.
Written on 2025年 04月 18日 by Ed Jones
I found SU95 in the ICAO database as the type designator for the Sukhoi "Superjet 100-95".
Written on 2025年 04月 18日 by Samuel Bixler
Colin is correct. He's not disputing that the aircraft is a Cessna A185F, which is what the FAA registration database calls it. But that's not the ICAO identifier, which is a 2-, 3-, or 4-character code that identifies the aircraft family for databases all over the world, including FA.
Written on 2025年 04月 18日 by Samuel Bixler
A185 is the Cessna model, not the type designator. See https://www.icao.int/publications/DOC8643/Pages/Search.aspx
just retired from Boeing Flight Test at Mesa AZ - Philadelphia sent us their CH47 block IIs for Flight test.

drive shaft between the two transmissions (fore and Aft) keeps the rotors egg-beater-ing properly. it's in the "crown" on the dorsal surface.
"rack" on the side I think was HF antenna.
saw the same pair (not tails, .. just aircraft) at Wichita Open House in 2006. Now think about the SOUND: Merlin and the Whistling Death ...

STEPHEN FURTAK Actually, N619TA calls Reno home. Tactical Air is one of a growing number of firms that contract out military air training services to the US Military (air-to-air combat training in this case). They use repurposed airframes from Western military services, as well as former Eastern-bloc aircraft.

You can check the Wikipedia entry. A185 is correct for the later models.
