en.Wedoany.com Reported - Spain's CANAVIA Aviation Academy has ordered four next-generation Tecnam aircraft to expand its training fleet. The order includes one P2006T NG multi-engine (MEP) aircraft and one P2008JC NG single-engine (SEP) aircraft, scheduled for delivery in 2027, with two additional P2008JC NG aircraft already arranged for delivery by the end of 2026. With these four aircraft arriving over the next 18 months, CANAVIA's total fleet will reach 16 aircraft.

Mario Pons, CEO of CANAVIA Aviation Academy, stated that the academy not only provides the ATPL training required to obtain licenses and ratings but is also committed to training students to become future airline pilots, which requires cultivating top-tier technical skills. The next-generation Tecnam aircraft equipped with fully integrated glass cockpits are central to meeting this need. Headquartered in the Canary Islands, CANAVIA operates from a private airport with some of the best flying weather in the world. This geographical advantage, combined with Tecnam's dispatch reliability, enables the academy to achieve a high utilization rate of over 1,000 flight hours per aircraft per year. Since its establishment 17 years ago, the academy has experienced continuous business growth, and with these new aircraft, its fleet will officially reach 16. This uninterrupted operational tempo is also supported by CANAVIA's own approved maintenance service center, which is responsible for maintaining the Tecnam fleet in optimal condition.

Walter Da Costa, Chief Sales Officer at Tecnam, stated that CANAVIA is a textbook example of a highly successful, high-volume flight academy. Flying over 1,000 hours per aircraft per year requires exceptional robustness and reliability. Tecnam is honored that the CANAVIA team continues to trust its next-generation fleet, particularly the seamless transition between the P2008JC NG and the P2006T NG, to train its growing cohort of 100 ATPL students.
