Florida-based Piper Aircraft closed 2024 with 291 deliveries, marking a nearly 20 per cent year-over-year increase. The rise was fuelled in part by the M700 Fury, which launched in March and accounted for 46 of the total deliveries.

Certified in early 2024, the M700 Fury features the HALO Safety System with Garmin Emergency Autoland, along with an advanced G3000 avionics suite. Powered by a Pratt & Whitney PT6A-52 engine, the aircraft reaches speeds of 301 knots and offers a range of 1,852 nm.

Piper’s US deliveries totalled 217 aircraft, a seven per cent increase over 2023, while international deliveries rose by 76 per cent to 74 units. “Our continued growth, both domestically and internationally, is a testament to the strength of our product lineup and the trust our customers place in Piper,” says the company’s president and CEO John Calcagno.

With expanding demand for the M700 Fury and growth in Archer DX trainer sales, 2024 marked Piper’s highest delivery count in over two decades. As the company moves into 2025, it continues to focus on high-performance aircraft for owner pilots and training fleet operators.
