The Meridian   The New Piper Aircraft made history in August, 1998, with the first flight of its new single-engine turboprop, the Malibu Meridian, marking Piper's return to the realm of turboprop powered aircraft.  It can deliver speeds topping 300 mph at an altitude of 30,000 feet and a maximum cruise range exceeding 1,000 nautical miles with a useful load that exceeds 1,500 pounds. It is equipped with a 4-bladed Hartzell prop. The Panel The Meridian features a true "glass" cockpit completely integrated with dual GARMIN GNS 530s with GPS/VOR/LOC/GS on color moving maps and easy-to-read liquid crystal displays; S-TEC's System 550 autopilot/flight director three-axis flight control system, coupled to the GNS 530s for course interception and tracking; and the Meggitt Engine Instrument Display System (EIDS) to display all engine operating and fuel management data.  Optional EFIS panel shown. The Engine The Meridian is powered by one of the most reliable turbine engines in the industry, the Pratt and Whitney Canada PT6A-42A.  With it, the Meridian maintains continuous power up to the aircraft's most efficient operating altitudes, which means you will enjoy an impressive rate of climb to altitude, and cruise faster than many twin turboprops.  Lower operating temperatures lead to a long and trouble-free engine life, with extended intervals between overhauls. The Interior What's not to love about the Meridian?  Luxuriate in pressurized, air-conditioned, leather-trimmed comfort, in a generous cabin measuring more than four feet wide and twelve feet long.  Stretch your legs in reclining seats with individual climate and lighting controls.  Or choose the five-seat option with entertainment center. Enjoy your favorite music and movies on the AM/FM/CD stereo and videocassette player with flat-panel LCD monitor.  Catch up on the paperwork at the extendable executive table.  Or grab yourself a cold refreshment from the beverage cooler.
