Flight Deck
Designed for the D328eco, the Companion™ integrated flight deck based on the Garmin G5000® avionics suite allows superior situational awareness, reduces pilot work and increases efficiency. This revolutionary, brand-new flight deck also significantly reduces maintenance costs and improves reliability.
Cabin
The airframe of the D328eco is nearly two metres longer than the original D328 which increases the seating capacity to 40 passengers as a standard configuration and enhances the proven multi-role capability of the aircraft. Quiet and fully customisable, the future-driven cabin design offers ample space for passengers, large overhead bins for storage and is equipped with a galley for hot and cold service.
Landing Gear
Building on the superior field performance of the D328, the new landing gear from HEGGEMANN AG coupled with a gravel kit allows the D328eco to access unpaved runways, allowing unbeatable operational flexibility.
Propellers
Optimised for higher propulsive efficiency and low noise, the new Collins Aerospace 568F-3 propellers work with the engine to ensure the D328eco remains one of the most economical turboprops in the regional and special mission markets.
Engine
Customised for the D328eco, the PW127XT-S engine from Pratt and Whitney Canada is the most efficient, cost-effective and modern turboprop engine available today. With its enhanced shaft horsepower to support the increased maximum take-off weight, the PW127XT-S engine will extend time-on-wing while reducing emissions, operating costs and maintenance costs.
SAF
Leveraging the efficiency of its turboprop engine, airframe and aircraft systems, the D328eco is 100% compatible with the most advanced Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF). The focus on Power-to-Liquids (PtL) will bring down CO₂ emissions to near zero and significantly reduce non-CO₂ effects through cleaner combustion.
Airframe
The benchmark aerodynamic airframe platform has a service ceiling of 30,000ft which enables altitude and speed performance for optimised flight routing. The flexible layout of the interior and high wing configuration facilitates multi-role mission capabilities.
