X-Aerodynamics PA-46 M500

The X-Aerodynamics M500 is a high-fidelity simulation designed to replicate the operational characteristics and systems of the real-world Piper M500 (PA-46-500TP).

The Piper M500 is a cabin-class single-engine turboprop. It is a highly-capable general-aviation aircraft popular as a personal and corporate transport.
The aircraft is capable of nearly jet-like speeds, thanks to the 500hp PT6A-42A engine. It has high-altitude capability with pressurization for comfort.
