Florida, USA — flight school Pilot Training Center (PTC) has received delivery of four Tecnam P92 Echo MkII aircraft, marking a fleet modernisation effort aimed at enhancing student experience with technologically advanced and fuel-efficient trainers.
- The newly delivered Tecnam P92 Echo MkII aircraft are equipped with Garmin G3X Touch glass cockpits and Garmin autopilot systems, allowing students to log Technically Advanced Aircraft (TAA) time from early training stages.
