Each day, the team at Aircraft For Sale picks an airplane that catches our attention because it is unique, represents a good deal, or has other interesting qualities. You can read Aircraft For Sale: Today’s Top Pick at FLYINGMag.com daily.

Today’s Top Pick is a 2021 Diamond DA40 NG.

The Diamond DA40 has been around for more than 20 years, but the NG should not be lumped in with earlier versions or with those powered by gasoline.

The jet-A-burning NG is smooth, quiet, and overall pleasant enough to convince skeptics to switch fuels. Years of evolution have also yielded an airplane that is more pleasant and economical to operate and therefore easier to love.

For owners who want to use their airplanes for cross-country missions, the DA40 NG has advantages over older trainer models such as the Cessna 172 and Piper PA-28. It cruises faster while burning less fuel, and its modern design incorporates more thoughtful comfort and convenience features than its legacy competitors.

This 2021 DA40 NG has 1,050 hours on the airframe, its 168 hp Austro Engine AE 300 diesel engine, and propeller since new. The aircraft carries 39 gallons of usable fuel and is equipped with air conditioning.

The DA40 NG’s IFR panel features the Garmin G1000 NXi avionics suite with dual 10-inch screens for PFD and MFD, Garmin GEA71B airframe/engine interface unit, dual GIA 64W GPS/nav/comms, GMA 1360 audio panel, GTX 345R transponder with ADS-B In and Out, GRS 79 AHRS, GDC 72 digital air data computer, GMU 44 magnetometer, synthetic vision, GFC 700 autopilot, and Flight Stream 510.

Pilots looking to buy their first aircraft, especially those who trained in Diamonds, should consider this 2021 Diamond DA40 NG, which is available for $549,900 on AircraftForSale.
