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.

Many pilots have seen the DA50 RG over the last two years or so. Those among us who are lucky have seen one up close, possibly at an airshow or trade gathering, sat in the cockpit and imagined ourselves at the controls on our way to a favorite destination.

This aircraft presents an opportunity to acquire a DA50 with low time instead of signing onto a long waiting list to buy one new from the factory.

Austria-based Diamond’s aircraft have sparked great interest in the U.S. for years because of their novel designs, composite structures, and efficient, economical jet-A fueled power plants that start with the press of a button instead of the lever gymnastics to which many of us are accustomed. One look at a DA50, or a skim of its POH, confirms that it is a modern airplane, not one designed during the middle of the last century.

This Diamond DA50 RG has 392 hours on the airframe, its 300 hp Continental CD-300 turbocharged, FADEC controlled diesel engine, and MT three-blade propeller. The aircraft is equipped with air conditioning, a TKS de-icing system and supplemental oxygen system.

The IFR panel features Garmin G1000 NXi avionics with dual GDU 105 10-inch displays for PFD and MFD, a Garmin GEA 71B airframe/engine interface, dual Garmin GIA 64W GPS/nav/comms with glidescope and localizer indicators, a GMA 1360 audio panel, GRS 79 AHRS, GDC 72 digital air data computer, GMU 44 magnetometer, GTX 345R transponder with ADS-B In and Out, GFC 700 autopilot, digital standby attitude module, Garmin Flight Stream 510, synthetic vision, WX 500 Stormscope, Avidyne TAS 605A traffic advisory system, GSR 56 Iridium satellite datalink, and Honeywell KN 63 DME.

Pilots looking for an advanced, fast, and efficient traveling aircraft that features familiar, easy-to-use automotive-style systems, should consider this 2022 Diamond DA50 RG which is available on AircraftForSale.
