Capua, Italy – Air Taxi, operated by Aviation Connectivity & Infrastructure Developers Pvt. Ltd., has marked a historic milestone in regional aviation by achieving unprecedented daily utilization of its Tecnam P2010 TDI aircraft fleet.

Since August 2023, Air Taxi has deployed 8 Tecnam P2010 TDI aircraft across India’s underserved regions under the Government of India’s UDAN (Ude Desh ka Aam Nagrik) scheme. These state-of-the-art aircraft have been flying an average of 11 hours a day, seven days a week, making Air Taxi the largest daily operator of the Tecnam P2010 TDI in the world.

“Air Taxi’s Tecnam P2010 TDI aircraft sliced through the morning mist, carrying dreams and destinations to remote corners of India,” said Varun Suhag, Managing Director of Air Taxi.
“Since August 2023, we’ve been on a mission to connect the unconnected, bridging gaps and driving real progress. With each flight, we’re not just carrying passengers – we’re carrying the promise of a better-connected India.”

The Tecnam P2010 TDI has proven to be a game changer in regional aviation, offering exceptional payload capacity, fuel economy, cruise speed, and passenger comfort. As a training organization (ATO/FTO) and a scheduled regional operator, Air Taxi is uniquely positioned to maximize the utility and reach of this next-generation single-engine aircraft.

“We are extremely proud of Air Taxi’s outstanding operational achievement,” said Walter Da Costa, Chief Sales Officer of Tecnam. “Their success with the P2010 TDI is a perfect example of how modern, efficient aircraft can empower sustainable regional air connectivity. Air Taxi’s commitment proves that aviation can be both impactful and responsible.”

Efficiency That Delivers Real Impact

The Tecnam P2010 TDI operates with an average fuel consumption of just 5.2 U.S. gallons per hour (approximately 19.7 litres/hour). Given Air Taxi’s daily utilization of 11 hours per aircraft, each unit consumes around:

• 57.2 U.S. gallons/day
• 216.7 litres/day
• 1,716 U.S. gallons/month
• 6,500 litres/month

In contrast, a conventional 4-seat single-engine aircraft using 100LL fuel typically consumes 10.5 U.S. gallons/hour (around 40 litres/hour), which under the same usage results in:

• 115.5 U.S. gallons/day
• 437.2 litres/day
• 3,465 U.S. gallons/month
• 12,540 litres/month

This results in a fuel saving of approximately 1,749 U.S. gallons (6,040 litres) per aircraft per month — an impressive 50% reduction, directly translating into lower operational costs and significantly reduced carbon emissions.

Air Taxi’s high-frequency operations are bringing tangible change — from enabling farmers to access wider markets, to helping students and professionals reach new educational and economic opportunities, to reuniting families across states.

Every takeoff tells a story. And as these aircraft soar through the skies, they carry more than passengers — they carry India’s aspirations for inclusive connectivity, sustainable aviation, and empowered rural economies.

Tradition, innovation and vision. These factors are taking Tecnam to new horizons. Based on recent data and industry benchmarks, Tecnam offers the greenest training fleet in the world. Flight schools using Tecnam’s single and twin-engine fleet can save up to 10 tonnes of CO₂ emissions per CPL student – a 60% reduction compared to fleets running exclusively on 100LL fuel over 155 training hours, including 30 hours in a twin.

Pori, Finland / Capua, Italy Tecnam proudly announces that it has been awarded a landmark contract by the Finnish Aviation Academy (FINAA) for the delivery of ten (10) Tecnam P2010TDI aircraft. This significant acquisition marks a transformative milestone for Finland’s premier professional flight training institution.

Following a rigorous public procurement process initiated in late 2024, Tecnam was selected from among three strong contenders. The P2010TDI emerged as the ideal solution to support FINAA’s mission of delivering cutting-edge pilot training with a strong emphasis on efficiency, technology, and sustainability.

The Tecnam P2010TDI, powered by the highly efficient Continental CD-170 engine and MT Propeller, and equipped with state-of-the-art Garmin avionics, offers a unique combination of advanced technology, low emissions, and fuel efficiency. With its extended range and payload, the aircraft enables IFR training on a single-engine platform—significantly reducing operational costs while enhancing FINAA’s mission flexibility and overall capabilities.

“The P2010TDI is a unique aircraft in today’s training market,” said Paolo Pascale, CEO of Tecnam. “Thanks to its Continental engine, it ensures low operational costs while delivering outstanding performance and reliability. It’s an aircraft that can truly make a difference in the business plan of any flight training organization.”

“We are honored by the trust placed in us by the Finnish Aviation Academy,” said Walter Da Costa, Tecnam Chief Sales Officer. “This order further strengthens our commitment to supporting the next generation of pilots with safe, sustainable, and state-of-the-art training aircraft.”

The first deliveries are scheduled to begin in March 2026, with the full fleet of ten P2010TDI aircraft set to significantly enhance FINAA’s training capabilities in the years ahead.
