The Tecnam-based fleet that provides cutting-edge platforms for single- and twin-engine training has been selected by the Spanish Aviation Academy, Canavia.
The CANAVIA Spanish Aviation Academy, located in the Canary Islands, will add two P2008JC MarkIIs and a multi-engine P2006T MarkII to its fleet, according to a Tecnam announcement. The school already has three single-engine Tecnam P2008JC MarkIIs and two multi-engine P2006T MarkIIs that are in operation 24/7.
“We are so proud to have CANAVIA as one of the major flight academy using our modern fleet solution. Together we are innovating the Flight Training in Europe,” said Walter Da Costa, Chief Sales Officer, Tecnam.
The academy will now have five P2008JC MKIIs in total, along with three P2006T MKIIs. The P2008JC, which features the most recent Garmin G3X Glass Cockpit technology and the renowned Tecnam flying characteristics, is the perfect aircraft for all stages of single-engine training.
“CANAVIA achieved the goal to having a fleet composed exclusively of Tecnam aircraft, a brand characterised by its commitment to the safety, reliability and quality of its wide range of aircraft. By doing so, CANAVIA guarantees its students and future pilots a training distinguished by excellence,” Said Mario Pons, CEO, CANAVIA.
A four-seat twin-engine aircraft with fully retractable landing gear is called the Tecnam P2006T MkII. The simplicity, performance, effectiveness, and ergonomics of this aircraft make it perfect for cross-country and multi-engine training. With its cutting-edge Garmin avionics suite and two Rotax 912S3 engines, the P2006T offers an unbeatable value proposition and innovative design, enabling unparalleled fuel savings.
The P2006T MkII offers a variety of ratings, including Multi-Engine Piston (MEP), Variable Pitch Propeller, EFIS, and retractable landing gear, all on a single platform and can compete with single-engine aircraft in terms of fuel consumption.
