2024 Diamond Aircraft Owner and Pilot Survey

[chili4way]

The Diamond Pilots Association (DPA), a volunteer organization of Diamond Aircraft pilots and owners, is surveying private and fleet owners about their ownership experiences.

“This is our second annual survey,” notes Ed McDonald, the organization’s president. “It covers a broad range of topics. You don’t have to be a DPA member to participate, and we invite and encourage all owners of Diamond Aircraft to complete the survey. It should take only 15-20 minutes.”

The survey consists of 45 questions organized into five sections:

• After Sales Experience (not Maintenance / Repairs)
• Maintenance and Repair Experience / AOG
• Avionics Upgrades
• Questions About Your Airplane
• Questions About You as an Owner/Pilot and Your Final Comments

“Answering any of the questions is optional,” Ed explained. “We will keep individual answers confidential and secure. We are looking for common themes suggesting areas for improvement and opportunities for DPA to help achieve these.”

Over 200 owners and pilots from 22 countries completed the survey last year. Like last year, the summary results will be published on the DPA website by the end of February 2025 and shared with Diamond Aircraft and several of Diamond's supply & distribution partners.

The survey will remain open through January 10, 2025.

Thank you to the 275 Diamond Aircraft owners and pilots who completed this year’s survey. Responses came from 22 countries, 4 Canadian provinces, and 41 US states.

We look forward to reviewing the survey results with Diamond as soon as a meeting can be scheduled. Meanwhile, we want to make the information available to the Diamond Aircraft owners and pilots. The summary is 95 pages long.

The summary can be accessed on the Diamond Pilots Association website:

Clearly a lot of time and effort went into the survey and compiling the results.

Well done!
