Tecnam has marked a milestone with the delivery of the 400th Tecnam P2006T Twin to Bartolini Air, Poland's top flight training organization. The exchange took place at the Pilot Expo in Berlin.

Since its design in 2006, the P2006T has become a go-to choice for flight training worldwide, not just for big schools but also private owners. It's not just about the looks as the aircraft offers multiengine piston training at a fair cost.

"If you are a passenger of Ryanair or another major European airline, it's quite likely that your pilot made his or her first multiengine IFR flight in a shiny Tecnam P2006T at Bartolini Air," said Bartlomiej Walas, Bartolini Air’s managing director.
