Description

This Diamond DA62 is a seven-seat twin, configured 2+3+2, with 1,325 hours total time on the airframe. The left engine shows 1,325 hours, the same as the airframe, and the right engine is reported as new, installed in July 2025. Propeller times are listed by the seller and will be confirmed against the records before publication.

The DA62 is Diamond's largest piston twin: a composite airframe with two Austro Engine turbocharged jet-fuel engines, single-lever electronic engine control, three-blade constant-speed propellers and retractable gear. This airplane is fitted with four options that matter on longer trips: air conditioning, an oxygen system, weather radar and satellite communication.

The year of manufacture, serial number, registration, full avionics list, inspection status, location and asking price have not been published and are available on request. Before an offer, the logbooks, the paperwork for the right engine replacement, the propeller records, the airworthiness documents and the damage history should be reviewed, followed by a pre-purchase inspection at a Diamond-experienced maintenance organisation.

Consultant's Notes

The short version

This Diamond DA62 for sale is a seven-seat composite twin in the 2+3+2 layout with 1,325 hours total time on the airframe. The left engine has 1,325 hours and the right engine is reported as new, installed in July 2025. It is equipped with air conditioning, an oxygen system, weather radar and satellite communication. The DA62 is powered by two Austro Engine turbocharged jet-fuel engines with single-lever control. Year of manufacture, serial number, registration, the full avionics list and location are available on request, and the price is on request. In short: a mid-time DA62 with a long-range touring specification and a split engine situation that a buyer should understand before talking numbers.

What the DA62 is

The DA62 is Diamond Aircraft's largest piston twin and the step up from the DA42. It uses the same philosophy: a composite airframe, two Austro Engine 2.0-litre turbocharged engines that burn Jet A-1, electronic engine control with one power lever per side, three-blade constant-speed propellers and retractable gear. The difference is size. The cabin is wider and longer, there is a third row, and the airplane is built to carry people and baggage further than a four-seat twin can.

It is a genuine owner-flown travelling machine. Single-pilot IFR, a modern Garmin cockpit, jet fuel that can be bought almost anywhere, and a fuel burn that is moderate for an airplane of this size. It is not a turboprop and it does not pretend to be one. Expect piston-twin speeds and piston-twin operating costs, with a cabin that feels more like a small business airplane than a trainer.

A note on "seven seats"

The 2+3+2 layout gives you seven seats. That does not mean seven adults, full fuel and full baggage on every trip. Like every airplane in this class, the DA62 makes you choose between fuel, people and bags. The third row is best suited to children or shorter legs for adults. European DA62s have also been delivered with different certified maximum take-off masses, which affects payload. Ask for the weight and balance report and the certified masses of this airplane, and run your own typical mission through the numbers before you fall in love with the cabin.

Reading the numbers on this DA62

1,325 hours on the airframe. For a DA62, this is mid-time. The airframe is well past the running-in stage and far from tired, provided it has been maintained properly. The usual composite checks apply: paint and UV protection, any repairs and whether they follow Diamond's approved repair data, landing gear wear and the condition of hydraulic components.

Left engine at 1,325 hours. It has the same time as the airframe, which suggests it is the engine the airplane was delivered with. Confirm that from the records. Ask how many hours remain against the limit Austro Engine currently applies to this engine, and check the status of components with their own time or calendar limits.

Right engine new in July 2025. A new engine on one side is a real asset. It also raises a fair question: why was it replaced? An early replacement can have a perfectly ordinary reason, or it can follow an event. Ask for the work order, the reason for removal, and whether any warranty applies to the new engine. Then think about what the mismatch means for you: the two engines will reach their limits at very different times, so the cost of ownership is spread out rather than arriving in one large bill.

Propeller times. The seller lists times for both propellers, but the published format does not make clear whether the figures are hours since new or since overhaul, nor how they relate to the dates given. We will confirm them from the propeller logbooks rather than guess.

The options on this airplane

- Air conditioning. Valuable in southern Europe, the Middle East or anywhere with hot summers. A DA62 cabin under a large canopy gets warm on the ground. The trade-off is some weight. - Oxygen system. The DA62's turbocharged engines are happy at altitude, and oxygen lets you use that: flying above weather and above the bumps on longer legs. - Weather radar. Onboard radar is not common on piston twins. For a touring airplane that will meet convective weather, it is a serious safety tool. - Satellite communication. Useful for staying reachable on long flights and over remote areas. Confirm the system type, what it can do and any subscription costs.

The full avionics list has not been published. DA62s are built with Garmin integrated flight decks; ask for the complete equipment list to confirm the exact configuration, autopilot and transponder.

Ownership and running costs

A DA62 costs more to run than a DA42 and much less than a turboprop. The fuel bill is the easy part: jet fuel, moderate consumption for the size, and wide availability. The real budget sits in scheduled maintenance of two engines, two propellers, retractable gear and, on this airplane, four systems that each need their own checks: air conditioning, oxygen, radar and satcom.

The engine situation here shapes that budget. With one engine new and the other at the same time as the airframe, the next large engine expense is on the left side, and the right side should be quiet for years. Ask us to map out the expected engine and propeller events over the next five years from the records; it turns an abstract number into a plan.

Also plan for a hangar, which composite airframes and avionics appreciate, and for type training. Insurers normally expect DA62-specific training before an owner flies alone, and that is good practice anyway.

Who this airplane suits

If you are an owner-pilot who carries family or colleagues on European trips of several hundred miles, and you want a twin with real weather tools, this specification fits well. If you are stepping up from a DA42 or a high-performance single, the DA62 will feel familiar in the cockpit and much bigger behind you. If you fly from airports where avgas is scarce, jet fuel is a practical advantage.

If you want turboprop speeds or a pressurised cabin, this is not the airplane. If you need to carry seven adults with full tanks, no airplane in this class will do that, and it is better said here than discovered on a viewing.

What to verify before you commit

- Year, serial number and registration. Not published. Ask first. - Right engine replacement. Reason for removal, work order, engine logbook, warranty status. - Left engine status. Hours remaining against the current limit and calendar items. - Propeller logbooks. To settle the times and dates listed. - Complete logbooks since new, with continuity. - Airworthiness Directives and service bulletins for airframe, engines and propellers, with a signed compliance list. - Damage history, in writing. - Certificate of airworthiness and airworthiness review (ARC or equivalent), registry, and any import or export involved. - Weight and balance and certified masses, so you know the real payload. - Function checks of the air conditioning, oxygen, radar and satcom during the pre-purchase inspection.

Price and how to make an offer

The asking price is on request. On a DA62, the year, avionics generation, options and engine status move the value most. Here the new right engine and the touring options weigh in its favour; the left engine time and the year will define the rest. Ask us for the records and we will give you a straight comparison with the rest of the market.
