Piper Aircraft has revealed today that the M700 FURY has been granted type certification by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), Brazil’s Agência Nacional de Aviação Civil (ANAC), and Australia's Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA).

The M700 FURY stands out as Piper's swiftest single-engine aircraft to date, boasting a top cruise speed of 301 knots and a range of 1,424 nautical miles. Equipped with a Pratt & Whitney PT6A-52 engine, this cabin-class turboprop merges outstanding performance with cutting-edge elements, such as the HALO Safety System featuring Garmin’s Emergency Autoland, and FIKI, catering to the needs of private owners and operators alike.

“The EASA, ANAC, and CASA certifications are significant milestones for the M700 FURY,” said John Calcagno, President & CEO of Piper Aircraft. “These approvals reinforce our commitment to delivering a world-class aircraft with exceptional performance, safety, and versatility to key international markets.”

Safety features such as Garmin’s Electronic Stability Protection (ESP), SurfaceWatch™, and SafeTaxi® are incorporated to enhance pilot awareness and control. To ensure ease of use, the aircraft comes with Autothrottle and Garmin PlaneSync™, making operations simpler and improving preflight and in-flight processes.
