Inside The $750,000 Piper Malibu Matrix

Inside The $750,000 Piper Malibu Matrix Plane This is the Piper Malibu Matrix, one of the most innovative ideas to come down the pike in a good long time: it's a cabin-class, six-seat airplane with an enviable useful load, a modern flat-panel avionics package, optional flight into known icing capability, arguably competitive if not equal speed when compared to Cessna and Cirrus competitors, and a ton of ramp appeal. When Piper announced that it was going to produce an unpressurized, roughly $750,000 version of its Mirage six-place pressurized piston single, the reaction from the media was, well, downright tepid. At face value it seemed as though Piper was merely trying to lower the price point of its million-dollar-plus, cabin-class, pressurized offering while still keeping the Mirage a viable product. And worst of all, it was doing it simply by subtracting some value from it, in the form of pressurization. After all, the critics asked, how much can it cost to put the pressurization system in an airframe already built to be pressurized? The whole Matrix exercise seemed like a cynical marketing ploy designed to drum up a few more PA-46 sales, nothing more. One aviation publication even referred to it as a "deflated Mirage" and asked, "Does the world really need an unpressurized Mirage?" Since that time, the critics turned out to be dead wrong. The base purchase price for a new Piper Malibu Matrix is about $750,000 before options, but there are plenty of used models on the market that are sold between $400,000 and $600,000, and the charter price is estimated at $400 to $800. While the annual fixed cost is estimated at $60,000 to $90,000, the average hourly operating cost is estimated at $200 to $400. Here is everything you need to know about the Piper Malibu Matrix.
