Commonality with the company's TBM 960 has increased as Garmin connectivity, weather radar and backup displays have been integrated across production lines.
There now are parallel integration steps for the Kodiak 100 and 900, involving wing and horizontal stabiliser mating; flight controls and rigging; engine and avionics; first flight; interior outfitting, and customer delivery.
The airframe has been re-engineered to reduce drag, with such changes as replacing the external pilot entry step with a foldable ladder, and adding flaptrack covers on the wing and wheel fairings to the landing gear.
