Piston twins are dead.........?

Not according to Tecnam

Check out the Tecnam P2012 Traveller. Its specifically designed to replace ageing PA31'a etc. I believe ball park price $1.8-2.0M. Very practical machine and mogas/ avgas approved.

Launch customer is Cape Air of Nantucket............. 67 x C402's.

Still no guarantees at this stage it will make the production line, but the interest and market demand has been identified.
