Re: New DA62 x words of wisdom from seasoned owners
How many times have they slipped the delivery date of C055 since you signed a contract?
And, yes, this will be my second DA62: the first one was an interim aircraft that Premier worked into the contract for my new one. I was supposed to have it until delivery of C039 in Q3 2021, but s**t happens...

OK, so it's your real purchase, you're not building a fleet!

I can justify *one* DA62 for personal transport, but two would be...excessive. And even harder to hangar.

Re: New DA62 x words of wisdom from seasoned owners
Interesting to read the comments regards delays etc, mine is due in March 2022 but I didn’t receive any communication yet, I touched base a few months ago and they said Covids a challenge but should be on track.
s/n 62.189
Mine is coming directly from the factory in Austria.
Can’t wait until she arrives

Kevin,
With a supposed March delivery, when did they have you select your paint and interior options?

Hi Bryce
I did that shortly after the point of the order. But I thought they would be confirming it at some point. They told me it would be a 9 month wait which seems inconsistent to the other posters here , possibly because I live in Czech so ordered directLy from them ?
Or it’s going to be months still

Kevin,
When did you place your order? The wait time in the U.S. has grown to be appx 2 years now.

Hi Bryce
It was placed in August. I suppose that they have more production capacity and less orders in Europe ?
