As a long-term partner and operator of Tecnam, this acquisition will strengthen FSTC’s position in the ATO market in Europe.

Future pilots and airline cadets will benefit from the latest technologies offered by this renowned aircraft manufacturer.

FSTC EUROPE chose Tecnam as its main aircraft supplier and partner because Tecnam offers the most modern and efficient fleet solution for a modern flight school, covering all its needs. This includes single-engine two-seater aircraft with full IFR equipment for ab initio training, as well as twin-engine aircraft for multi-engine piston and complex ratings.

The latest version of the P2006T, the P2006T NG (Next Generation), is one of the smartest twin-engine aircraft on the market. It offers unbeatable value and an innovative design, integrating all primary flight, navigation, communication and terrain data on two high-definition LCDs via a modern Garmin avionics suite.

The aircraft is also equipped with a two-axis autopilot for highly efficient MEP complex training.

Fitted with two Rotax 912iSc3 injected engines, the Tecnam P2006T exhibits remarkable fuel savings and can be operated using AVGAS or MOGAS, which leads to significant cost savings and offers the best training for multi-engine, variable pitch and retractable landing gear ratings. The advanced avionics system supports both VFR and IFR, Day and Night, MEP, IR and PBN (LNAV/VNAV and LPV).

The new TECNAM P2006T NG (Next Generation) is the result of more than 300 improvements of the current P2006T MkII. Pilots now benefit from an additional front door for the co-pilot and external access to the baggage compartment. Windows have also been redesigned and made larger to improve visibility.

The powerplant is now provided by twin fuel injected Rotax9121Sc3 engines, offering high altitude efficiency and reduced fuel consumption of 14 lt/hr (3.7 USG/h) per engine.

The wing position and anti-collision lights are integrated into the winglets and equipped with state-of-the-art LED technology. This not only enhances efficiency, style, and visibility but also offers a more eco-friendly and durable lighting solution.

Walter DA COSTA, Chief Sales Officer: “We are pleased to support the growth of modern flight schools such as FlyBy. Commercial operators urgently need pilots trained on modern aircraft with glass cockpits and the latest instrumental procedures.

The Tecnam fleet is perfect for the today modern school as their aircraft offer the best efficiency, performance and value while meeting the latest certification standards with a unique feature as ‘the greenest fleet on the market.
