Capua, Italy – Tecnam Flight Academy is proud to announce the addition of the new Tecnam P-Mentor to its training aircraft fleet. 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.
“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.” — Carolina Pascale Langer, Accountable Manager.
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.
The 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)
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.”
Tradition, innovation, and vision — these are the driving forces taking Tecnam to new horizons. Based on recent data and industry benchmarks, Tecnam offers the world’s most environmentally friendly training fleet. Flight schools using Tecnam’s single- and twin-engine aircraft can save up to 10 tons of CO₂ emissions per student earning their Commercial Pilot License — a 60% reduction over 155 flight hours, including 30 in a twin-engine, compared to traditional fleets using older 100LL-fueled aircraft.
Tecnam Flight Academy
The TECNAM Flight Academy, an EASA and ENAC-approved training organization (ATO certificate IT.ATO.0097), was founded in 2019 as a division of Costruzioni Aeronautiche Tecnam. In just a few years, it has become a reference among training organizations in the aviation world, forming both private and commercial airline pilots. The Tecnam Flight Academy is not just a flight school — it is an extension of the Pascale family’s passion for aviation, active since 1948. The Academy places special emphasis on safety culture, which underpins all training programs.
