Tecnam Aircraft has appointed GM Aviation as its exclusive distributor for sales and customer support service in Germany and Austria. GM Aviation will serve all customers from schools to private owners, offering Tecnam aircraft in all models such as the P2006T NG twin engine, the two-seater IFR P-Mentor, the P2010 series as well as the ultralight range as the P92MkII and P2002 Sierra MKII.

Tecnam chief sales officer (CSO) Walter Da Costa says: “Germany and Austria are key markets for Tecnam. We want to improve our presence because our customers deserve it. With GM Aviation we want to renew the fleets in these countries with modern and sustainable aircraft.”

The efficiency of the Tecnam fleet means very low CO2 emissions. A recent study shows that flight schools using Tecnam single and twin engine aircraft can reduce emissions by up to 60%, equivalent to 10 tonnes of CO2 for each student by the time they receive their commercial pilot licence.
