Daher Aircraft has acquired US-based Quest Aircraft Company, based in Sandpoint, Idaho, which builds the Kodiak 100 utility turboprop. Daher, which manufacturers the TBM family of high speed turboprops, expands both its aircraft manufacturing business and strategic presence in North America.
Kodiak, which has been owned by Japan’s Setouchi Holdings since 2015, was founded to support missionary work with an aircraft that could operate from rough and ultra-short runways. The 10 seat Kodiak
, which like the TBM is powered by the Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6, is certified in 67 countries and is used by air-taxi, recreational and leisure operators, along with businesses, pilot-owners and humanitarian organizations.
Daher Chairman Patrick Daher stated: “Quest was built on a foundation of values that are common to our two companies, with a focus on excellence and with the commitment to a high-quality, extremely robust product. As a powerful and maneuverable aircraft – used particularly for humanitarian missions to provide aid to isolated communities – the Kodiak 100 perfectly complements our TBM product range and is fully in line with Daher’s long-term vision as a company committed to the future of aviation.”
