A factory-new Piaggio Avanti has become the 23rd aircraft in Gestair's diverse fleet, joining a variety of stablemates from the spectrum of types by Bombardier, Hawker Beechcraft, Cessna, Dassault, Pilatus and Gulfstream, located throughout Spain.

The Avanti is part of the management fleet, but is also available for charter under Gestair's AOC from its base at Madrid Torrejon. It has a range of 1,400 miles and four hours, and can hold a total of eight passengers plus two crew members.

Gestair Private Aviation specialises in private flight management for corporations and individual customers and in the comprehensive management of aircraft for executive aviation. It is one of three divisions of the business, along with Gestair FBO, responsible for procuring optimal ground handling services for passengers, crew members and aircraft, and Gestair Management Consulting, specialising in offering advice for the purchase and sale of aircraft.

This is the second time that Gestair Private Aviation has operated an Avanti, and it has taken its place as the second turboprop in the fleet alongside a Hawker Beechcraft King Air 350.
