Piper Aircraft's flagship M700 Fury has received FAA approval for unpaved field operations, broadening the aircraft's overall operational capabilities.

“The Fury's performance was exceptional considering the FAA's rigorous testing requirements for unpaved field certification,” states Ron Gunnarson, VP of sales, marketing and customer support. “The aircraft's robust design and construction quality ensured seamless operations in all test conditions. The certification process was also smooth with the Type Inspection Authorisation flight test being completed in just one day.”

Piper Aircraft is progressing with several international validations at both the aircraft level and for unimproved field operations. Those validations will similarly expand the versatility and utility of the Piper M700 Fury, reinforcing Piper's commitment to meeting the demanding operational environment needs of its global customer base. International deliveries will begin in Q3.

The Piper M700 Fury achieved FAA type certification in March 2024 and comes standard with the HALO Safety System featuring Garmin Emergency Autoland. This revolutionary system includes digital technology that safely lands the aircraft at the nearest suitable airport in the event that the pilot is incapacitated. Additionally, the M700 Fury G3000 avionics suite includes autothrottle, emergency descent mode, electronic stability protection, SurfaceWatch, SafeTaxi and Garmin PlaneSync, all of which are designed to enhance safe operation of the aircraft.

Beyond the flight deck, the six-seat M700 Fury is powered by a Pratt & Whitney PT6A-52 700 SHP engine. The aircraft has a maximum cruise speed of 301ktas/557km/hr, a maximum range of 1,852nm/3,430km and a standard useful load of 2,320lbs/1,052kg.
