Statements

As the official Tecnam dealer for Poland, seeing these official registry numbers validates our ongoing mission: to provide other Polish flight schools and private owners with the most reliable, economically efficient, and technologically advanced aircraft on the market.”
• Giovanni Pascale Langer, Managing Director of Tecnam: “Seeing the official 2026 registry numbers from Poland is a profoundly proud moment for all of us at Tecnam. It is a true testament to the outstanding quality of our aircraft and the phenomenal, tireless work of our exclusive dealer, Bartolini Air. Poland has rapidly become a vital hub for professional flight training in Europe, and we are honored that our partnership with Bartłomiej and his team is providing the modern, profitable fleet that is shaping the future of aviation in the region.”
