N527S

The airframe described is registered as N527S, a United States–registered example of the Diamond DA42 Twin Star (NG). Specific build year and serial number for this individual airframe are not published; ownership lineage beyond its U.S. registration is likewise not published. The airframe operates in a four-place executive/training role and, based on available data, is typically configured for single-pilot operation with three passengers; details on operator or home base are not published. Condition and valuation details are not published, and no notable registry actions or historical incidents are recorded in the supplied data.

The cabin of this specific N527S example is a 4‑place executive/training layout with seating for one pilot plus three passengers, reflecting a mission profile that balances training utility and light corporate transport. Typical avionics fit for the airframe is the Garmin G1000, which supports integrated flight, navigation and engine monitoring systems conducive to both instrument training and cross‑country IFR operations. With a 1,210 nm range and 176 kt cruise speed, common missions include regional trips, flight training sorties, and light executive hops; specific operator base and route patterns are not published. Maintenance considerations for this installation center on the AE300 turbodiesel powerplants and their fuel/monitoring systems, and operators commonly emphasize diesel-specific engine management and avionics upkeep for uninterrupted training schedules.

The Diamond DA42 Twin Star (NG) occupies a niche for efficient, light twin piston/turbodiesel training and owner‑operator twin performance, offering relatively low fuel burn and modern avionics such as the Garmin G1000. Competing models in the same segment include multi‑engine piston twins and diesel‑upgraded variants from other manufacturers aimed at air‑school and owner‑pilot markets. Buyer and charter demand typically focuses on economy, training capability and avionics sophistication; resale and maintenance considerations often hinge on engine maintenance history for the Austro AE300 diesel package and the installed G1000 avionics suite.
