Piper M Series for Sale — Buy or Sell Piper M350, M500 and M600 Aircraft Worldwide

The Piper M Series represents the modern evolution of Piper Aircraft's pressurised single-engine performance lineup — a family of sophisticated, high-capability aircraft spanning from the piston-powered M350 to the turboprop M500 and the flagship M600, offering owner-pilots a clear progression path from fast piston performance through to single-engine turboprop excellence. Combining pressurised cabins, retractable undercarriage, advanced Garmin G3000 avionics, and proven powerplants, the Piper M Series delivers genuine cross-country capability for six occupants in a package that remains accessible to experienced owner-pilots. Piper M Series aircraft for sale attract pilots seeking the latest in Piper's engineering with full factory support and warranty coverage on recent models. Airplane Trade is the leading marketplace for M Series aircraft worldwide.

The Piper M Series Family

Piper Aircraft rebranded its PA-46 lineup as the M Series in 2015, replacing the Malibu Mirage, Meridian, and Matrix designations with the M350, M500, and M600 names that better reflect the aircraft's power outputs and position them in a clear product hierarchy. The M Series branding also coincided with the introduction of the Garmin G3000 avionics suite across the lineup, significantly modernising the cockpit experience. The M600, introduced in 2017, brought a new level of performance with the Pratt and Whitney Canada PT6A-42A engine and introduced the groundbreaking Garmin Autoland (Piper Autosafe) emergency autonomous landing system that can safely land the aircraft without pilot input in an emergency — a world-first for a production single-engine aircraft.

M Series Variants

  • Piper M350 (PA-46-350P) — Continuation of the Malibu Mirage; Continental TSIO-550-C piston engine, 350 hp; pressurised 6-seat cabin; Garmin G1000 NXi avionics; cruise speed 213 knots at FL250; the most accessible M Series entry point.
  • Piper M500 (PA-46-500TP) — Turboprop M Series; Pratt and Whitney Canada PT6A-42A engine, 500 shp; pressurised 6-seat cabin; Garmin G3000 avionics with autothrottle; cruise speed 260 knots at FL280; the sweet spot of the M Series for turboprop performance.
  • Piper M600 (PA-46-600TP) — Flagship M Series turboprop; PT6A-42A engine, 600 shp; Garmin G3000 avionics with autothrottle; Garmin Autoland emergency autonomous landing system (Piper Autosafe); cruise speed 274 knots at FL300; the most capable and technologically advanced single-engine piston or turboprop aircraft certified under Part 23.
  • Piper M600/SLS — Safety and Landing System designation for M600 aircraft equipped with the full Garmin Autoland suite; commands a premium over earlier M600 aircraft without the system.

Garmin Autoland — A Safety Revolution

The Garmin Autoland system fitted to the M600/SLS (marketed by Piper as Autosafe) represents a genuine revolution in single-pilot aviation safety. If the pilot becomes incapacitated, any occupant can press the Autoland button — or the system can activate automatically if it detects prolonged absence of pilot input. The system then autonomously selects a suitable nearby airport, files a flight plan, manages the descent, configures the aircraft for landing, communicates with ATC on the emergency frequency, makes Mayday calls, and lands the aircraft — all without human intervention. This capability, unprecedented in a production single-engine aircraft, fundamentally changes the safety calculus for single-pilot IFR operations and is increasingly requested by pilots who fly long over-water or wilderness routes.

Buying a Piper M Series Aircraft — Key Considerations

  • Engine Hours (M500/M600) — PT6A-42A engines operate on-condition; assess hours since new and hot section inspection records carefully; budget $200,000-$300,000 for overhaul.
  • Engine Hours (M350) — Continental TSIO-550-C TBO is 2,000 hours; assess hours and compression carefully; budget $30,000-$45,000 for overhaul.
  • Avionics Software — Garmin G3000 and G1000 NXi suites receive regular software updates; verify currency and plan for periodic update costs.
  • Autoland Status (M600) — Verify whether the aircraft has the full Autoland/SLS system; this significantly affects both value and safety capability.
  • Warranty Status — Recent M Series aircraft may still carry factory warranty coverage; verify status with Piper Aircraft.
