Tecnam had its new P2012 Traveller on static display at NBAA-BACE in Las Vegas. The airplane was certified by the FAA in August, and is ready for deliveries in the U.S.
Powered by two 375 HP turbo-charged Lycoming engines, the Tecnam P2012 Traveller features a modern design and state-of-the-art equipment, allowing single-pilot operations, depending on individual country regulations. The aircraft’s simple and easily accessed airframe and systems, fixed landing gear, robust interiors and easy-to-replace parts, result in high efficiency and low maintenance costs. These attributes, and many more, make it the ideal aircraft for regional airlines.
The first 20 P2012 Travellers will be delivered to Cape Air in Massachusetts. Aero-News Editor in Chief Jim Campbell talked with Tecnam U.S. Director Shannon Yeager about the new airplane.
