Italy based airframer Tecnam rolled out the first P2012 Traveller commuter aircraft from its Experimental Assembly Line (XAL) in Capua (Italy).
The eleven seater is powered by a next generation piston engine twin, designed to comply with both FAR part 23 and EASA CS-23.
The Tecnam Flight Crew powered up the P2012’s engines for a successful and smooth taxi onto the Capua ramp.
The Traveller is powered by two Lycoming engines (350 HP, turbocharged, six-cylinder, direct-drive, horizontally opposed, air-cooled, avgas or mogas feeded ) mounted on the wings.
The aircraft features easy cabin access via wide doors and superior cabin comfort for all passengers, spacious luggage compartment and has a fixed landing gear that Tecnam claims to reduce maintenance by 70 percent.
The cabin has large panoramic windows, and four doors, including a sliding passenger door and a cargo door.
Cruise flight speed is about 175 Kts at a flight altitude of 10.000 ft and has a range greater than 600 nm.
The joint Tecnam and Cape Air P2012 Traveller development team, including Lycoming for the engines and Garmin for the avionic systems, is a significant international cooperation aiming to deliver both innovation and a step change in air transportation.
