The P2012 provides a cost effective solution with varied configuration options. It offers combi, air ambulance and parachute jumping variants, plus dedicated special mission and full cargo versions, and can seat up to nine.

Cape Air, Tecnam's launch customer for the Traveller, has gone in for 10 more Tecnam P2012 Travellers, extending its 20-strong fleet. It has also also optioned 10 units of 2022's production and 10 from 2023.

Tecnam, Rolls-Royce and Widerøe are putting their heads together to create an all-electric commuter aircraft that could be ready by 2026. Norway's extensive network of STOL airports is deemed to be a good fit.
