Tecnam Academy expands fleet with P-Mentor

Tecnam Flight Academy added new Tecnam P-Mentor to its training aircraft fleet. With this important addition, the flight school reinforces its commitment to training the next generation of pilots, with a strong focus on safety, efficiency, and innovation.The P-Mentor, Tecnam’s latest aircraft, represents the perfect blend of advanced technology and cost optimization, making it ideal for IFR training. This aircraft joins an already all-Tecnam fleet:

• 2x Tecnam P2008 JC

• 1x Tecnam P2006T (2006)

• 1x Tecnam P2010 TDI

• 1x Tecnam P-Mentor (new)

Additional aircraft will be added in the coming months to further modernize the fleet. With a growing number of students, the Academy offers modular training programs from PPL to ATPL, ensuring a consistent and highly professional training experience, thanks to a modern fleet fully integrated with Tecnam technology.

Giovanni Pascale Langer, Managing Director at Tecnam, stated: “The collaboration between Tecnam and the flight school is a natural extension of the passion for aviation that has always driven our family. Through Tecnam Flight Academy, we have the unique opportunity to experience what our customers do, further strengthening our commitment to a modern, high-quality, pilot- and school-centered aviation approach.”

Carolina Pascale Langer, Accountable Manager commented: “I’m particularly proud of this synergy that combines our educational experience with Tecnam’s technological excellence. This enables us to offer our students top-tier training, aligned with the needs of modern airlines.” 

P-Mentor is a two-seat single-engine piston aircraft, fully IFR-compliant and certified under the latest CS-23 EASA and FAA standards, enabling PBN/RNAV/AFCS capabilities. Today’s flight schools can rely on a single platform to train students from their first flight through to the CPL-IR, featuring a variable-pitch propeller, simulated retractable landing gear, and UPRT.

The P-Mentor has been designed to offer the best human-machine interface, resulting in the most effective VFR/IFR training experience. Its large fuel tank allows flight schools to fly all day without refueling, increasing operational value. Low maintenance costs, low fuel consumption, and excellent value-for-money make the P-Mentor a unique and profitable asset for any modern flight school.

The introduction of the P-Mentor further strengthens the strategic partnership with Tecnam, delivering key advantages such as:

• Standardized and continuous training methodology

• Operational cost efficiency

• State-of-the-art avionics

• Direct manufacturer support

• Enhanced brand value

• Additional training for Tecnam customers (avionics, additional ratings)
