The innovative P-Mentor aircraft offers an end-to-end platform for single engine IFR training<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n

CAPUA \u2013 Tecnam announced today that the renowned Scottish flight training academy ACS Aviation ordered two P-Mentors to be added to their current fleet to expand their fleet capabilities in 2023.<\/p>\n

The company will also become the first Tecnam aircraft service centre in Scotland offering specialist aircraft maintenance and technical support to its customers. The move follows a period of high growth for ACS Aviation where a record number of graduates have secured positions as first officers with leading UK airlines.<\/p>\n

The P-Mentor is the latest design from Tecnam: a single engine IFR\u00a0 two-seater aircraft, offering flight schools\u00a0 a simple and sustainable single platform solution for student pilots; from their first flight up to advanced training including the instrument rating.<\/p>\n

The P-Mentor not only provides a highly cost effective platform on which most\u00a0 of the training syllabus can be completed, with the Rotax 912iSc, it also offers the lowest fuel consumption and CO2 emissions currently available for IFR training thus further enhancing the renowned profitability of operating a Tecnam fleet.<\/p>\n

By choosing the P-Mentor as their go to training platform, ACS Aviation is embracing the new philosophy in flight training offered by Tecnam. This fleet expansion will not only improve the quality of training and reduce the costs for its students, but also help to preserve the environment. Recent study shows that flight schools operating with TECNAM single engine fleet can reduce emissions by up to 60%. This equates to10 tons of CO2<\/sup> for each student by the time they receive their Commercial Pilot License.<\/p>\n
