Piaggio Avanti
Jim
Not the Avanti as such - it 's upgrading in general to a much more expensive piece of kit and how careful you should be - even with expert advice
IIRC Dick Karl did a number of articles - I think you can get some of them here
https://www.flyingmag.com/authors/dick-karl/20/
Start on page 2 with his November 2017 article and work forward....
For what its worth I've only seen the Avanti in S Italy - it looks great and clearly has a fairly spectacular performance level but it is not common and repairs and spares might be tough - especially a few years down the line
Good luck!

Thanks again Asturias. Copy all. I did find a decent article in there, but like so many others, it was just a review of the airplane. All of those are quite complimentary. What I’m lacking is the real world experience of current Avanti owners and owner/pilots. I need that info before I can intelligently compare “life with an Avanti” to something much more vanilla - say, a Phenom 100 maybe.
The Owners Forum seems to be moribund and the Face book page last post was 2018 I think

Arm for BEM and Fuel
Hi!
I'm making a M&B calculator Excel program for my university studies, and I'm in need for arm data for the Piaggio. I need arm for BEM and the main fuel mass, in order to calculate moment. I've looked through the EASA TCDS, but I couldn't find them. Can someone help me?
