Founded for PA-46 owners and pilots
MMIG46 was founded in 1999 to provide owners, operators and pilots of the Piper PA-46 in Europe with their own platform for exchange, experience, safety and joint aviation activities.
MMIG46 e.V.
Malibu Mirage Interest Group PA46 Europe
MMIG46 is the European interest group for owners, operators and pilots of the Piper PA-46 family. The association connects people who operate, maintain and fly these aircraft in real-world European conditions.
More than an aircraft type club
The focus is on practical operating experience, technical exchange, maintenance topics, safety training, travel planning and personal contact within the PA-46 community.
Purpose
Exchange and shared experience
The association’s purpose is to promote exchange between PA-46 owners, operators and pilots. Members benefit from practical experience that cannot be found in brochures or manuals alone.
Topics include aircraft operation, route planning, maintenance experience, avionics, engine management, pressurisation, de-icing, training and safe long-distance IFR operations.
Community
Flying together
MMIG46 organises fly-ins, trips and meetings where members can meet in person, exchange experience and strengthen the European PA-46 network.
The best way to bring the PA-46 community together is to fly together: safely, professionally and with a strong focus on shared operational knowledge.
