10 TECNAM P-MENTORS HAVE ARRIVED AT THE MERMOZ ACADEMY IN TOURS, FRANCE. https://tecnam.com/10-tecnam-p-mentors-have-arrived-at-the-mermoz-academy-in-tours-france/ Mon, 08 Apr 2024 19:26:46 +0000 https://tecnam.com/?p=24286

Today the French academy has a fleet of Tecnam aircraft.

TOURS – FRANCE – The recent acquisition of 10 Tecnam P-Mentors completes Mermoz’s fleet expansion programme. The aircraft will be used for both PPL (Private Pilot Licence) and MPL (Multi Pilot Licence) courses. One of the reasons for this choice, apart from the excellent fuel consumption, is the lowest CO2 emissions, making the P-Mentor the aircraft of choice for students and flight schools.

Students at the Mermoz base in Tours are now happy to begin and complete their IFR training on a modern platform with digital screens and all the features of the large aircraft they will be working on. The academy, which has been operating in France since 2018, currently has 220 students and a fleet of ten (10) P-Mentor, five (5) P2006T twin-engine and four (4) P2010 single-engine four-seaters.

Tecnam Green Fleet.  Based on recent data and industry benchmarks, flight training schools operating Tecnam’s single and twin-engine fleets can save as much as 10 tons of CO2 emissions for every single student graduating with a Commercial Pilot License – a 60% reduction compared to legacy fleets using Avgas 100LL fuel. (Based on 155 flight training hours, including 30 hours on the twin.)

More info on Tecnam Green Aviation:
https://tecnam.com/soar-greener/

The P-Mentor is a two-seat single engine piston aircraft fully IFR – is compliant with the latest CS-23 EASA & FAA requirements, allowing PBN/RNAV/AFCS capabilities. The modern flight school have today one platform to train students from their first flight up to CPL- IR, including Variable Pitch Propeller, Simulated Retractable Landing Gear and UPRT.

The P-Mentor is designed to offer the best human machine interface resulting in the most effective VFR/IFR training while the generous fuel tank allows Flight Schools to fly all day long without refueling, no interruption is equal to improve operational value. Lowest cost of maintenance, lowest fuel consumption, and the greatest value for money, make this aircraft a unique profit opportunity for any Flight School.

Stephane Larrieu, Mermoz Academy Managing Director said “With this new acquisition, we now have a harmonised Tecnam fleet that allows us to offer modern flight training, from PPL to IR ME.

Capua, Italy
— Tecnam is proud to announce that newly set up Pradera Verde Aviation Group of Companies in the Philippines has chosen to equip their fleet with six new Tecnam aircraft — five P2008 JC MkII aircraft and one P2010.

The Tecnam P2008 JC MkII is currently the most appreciated basic trainer on the aviation market. With its carbon-fibre fuselage, metal wings and stabilator, the two-seat P2008 JC has a vast number of advantages over traditional aircraft. This combination of both composite material and metal has resulted in a more fuel-efficient and much quieter aircraft.

Tecnam’s two-seat P2008 JC MkII version features a number of significant enhancements. Amongst these are a new avionics suite with a new design of both the dashboard and glare shield, thereby enabling the introduction of the Garmin innovative G3X Touch display with a MD302 attitude instrument.

The four-seat Tecnam P2010 is a larger cousin of the P2008 and shares many of its features, such as the high-wing design, single engine, and roomy cabin interiors, making it an excellent, versatile choice for this new operation. These two aircraft provide the basis for a profitable Flight Training business model, allowing state-of-the-art aircraft at low operating costs, which translates to happier students, lower rates, and greater profit for the FTO.

Captain Roberto C. Aguilar of Pradera Verde Aviation Group said, “A partnership with the right company can have an incredible impact on our business success. We strongly believe that Tecnam providing our air assets will ensure the most important aviation ethics we wanted to instill in our corporate culture, which is a client-centered, safe and reliable service.”

Based in Lubao, Pampanga, the Pradera Verde operation is impressively multifunctional and is currently in its third phase of setting up. It consists of an Executive Airpark, a Recreational Sports Flying Club, a Flight Training Academy, an Air Charters operation, Aero Maintenance Services and a Specialized Airline Service.

“We are so proud that Pradera Verde Aviation has chosen Tecnam for their fleet, and we look forward to a long-term partnership,” said Giovanni Pascale, Tecnam’s Managing Director. “For us, it is not only about selling more aircraft, but providing a smart and profitable solution to Flight Training establishments worldwide, such as we are doing with Pradera Verde in the Philippines.”

Capua (Italy) – On July 3, APA Training (Airline Pilot Academy), one of the most modern flight schools in France, collected its first two Tecnam P2010 215 HP single-engine piston (SEP) aircraft. A twin-engine P2006T and further P2010 four-seaters will follow shortly.
The crew flying the two aircraft, Captains Xavier Hirschauer, Emmanuel Dumenil and Francois Montel, were delighted to ferry flight the aircraft to their future home base in Tours Val de Loire Airport.

With the arrival of this first batch of aircraft, APA Training will start the operations and the first class of students will soon start flight training with state-of-the art aircraft, fulfilling the APA requirement for excellence and their wish to become the first private ab initio flight school with an international orientation.

APA Training was founded by professional former Air France pilots who combined their vast aviation experience to create a flight training school of the highest standards.

The P2010, also known as the “P Twenty-Ten”, is a single-engine, high-wing, four-seat aircraft that brings together an advanced technology all-carbon fibre fuselage with a metal wing and stabilator. Its standard configuration is powered by the renowned 180 HP Lycoming IO-360 engine and has a high fuel capacity (240L, 63.4 imp. gal). The option of Lycoming’s IO-390-C3B6 engine provides 215 HP @ 2,700 rpm which, coupled with a 3-bladed MT variable-pitch propeller, allows the P2010 to climb at 1,100 ft/m and cruise on 75% power at 146 kts.
Both versions (180 HP and 215 HP) are equipped with Garmin’s innovative G1000 Nxi state-of-the-art avionics platform. This enables not only wireless cockpit connectivity, but also wireless database updates via the Garmin Flight Stream, resulting in enhanced situational awareness.
