2021 2019 Tecnam P2012 in the US

Description

The Tecnam P2012 Traveller has set a new benchmark in the commuter-twin market, delivering airline-like capacity and safety in a modern all-metal airframe designed from the ground up for professional operations. This 2019 example is a fully certified 9-seat aircraft, impeccably maintained and fully equipped for IFR work, equally suited to commuter-fleet expansion, charter and regional operations. With 2,620 hours total airframe time and engines and propellers at just 833 hours, it offers a proven, high-utility platform with extensive life remaining on its powerplants.

Powerplant & Propulsion. Power comes from two Lycoming TEO-540-C1A engines, each a turbocharged, 6-cylinder horizontally-opposed unit producing 375 HP, with electronic fuel injection and ignition managed through single-lever power controls for reduced crew workload. Each engine drives a 5-blade MT MTV-14-B-C-F constant-speed propeller. At just 833 hours against a 2,200-hour engine TBO and a 2,400-hour / 72-month propeller TBO, both engines and propellers retain the large majority of their service life.

Avionics & Navigation. The aircraft is equipped with a Garmin G1000 NXi integrated flight deck and a fully integrated GFC 700 autopilot, certified for single-pilot PBN, IFR and VFR operations. All-weather and situational-awareness capability is enhanced by GWX 70/75 weather radar, GTS 800/825 Traffic Advisory System and an Angle of Attack indicator. Connectivity is provided through Bluetooth / Flight Stream and Iridium, supporting datalink and global communication on longer or remote missions.

Systems & Monitoring. Electrical power is supplied by left and right engine-driven alternators rated at 140 A each, feeding a dual 24V DC bus for redundancy. The aircraft features fixed, robust landing gear suited to operations from unprepared or secondary strips, and removable underfloor panels that simplify system access and maintenance.

Optional Equipment. This aircraft is further enhanced with a TKS FIKI system for flight into known icing, a Janitrol Aero cabin heater and air conditioning, extending its all-weather, all-climate capability for year-round commercial operations.

For operators seeking commuter-class capacity, low operating costs and a proven, ice-protected certified twin with genuinely low-time engines, this 2019 P2012 Traveller stands out as one of the most capable and technologically advanced piston commuters available today.
