Why would you need a type rating on a Piper M600 and not on the M500?
Re: Type Rating
It's a "high performance" aeroplane as per CAR 400.01 (1)?
Re: Type Rating
I understand that. But both planes are high performance but only the the M600 ask for a type rating.
Re: Type Rating
I don't think an M600 can ask for anything, it's a plane.
If you are saying that the CARs or TC require a type rating for one but not the other, could you provide a reference?

Re: Type Rating
I could be wrong as i dont know anything about those planes but just a quick look on pipers website the m500 has a vne off 188 while the m600 is 250 pretty sure anything 250 and over is a high performance plane and needs a type rating. I think its different in the states and both would be considered high performance

Liberalism itself as a religion where its tenets cannot be proven, but provides a sense of moral rectitude at no real cost.
