Tecnam P2010 Tdi Achieves FAA Certification

Tecnam announced that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has awarded a full Type Certificate to the P2010 TDI with the number A00066CE for Part 23 of the FAA Regulations. The P2010 airframe, with its wide, composite, fuselage design and the all-metal wing and stabilator, has proven to be the perfect platform to match the Diesel engine performance and capabilities. The consolidated comfort, 3rd door back seat accessibility, safety and reliability of the “P Twenty-Ten” are now accompanied by the added efficiency granted by the use of Diesel/JetA1 fuel. This proven power plant technology attributes to the extremely low operating costs provided by the dual FADEC-controlled Continental engine.

The Continental Diesel 170 hp Turbocharged Engine joins the P2010 power plant options of the 180 hp Avgas/Mogas and 215 hp Avgas engine. This latest engine pairing brings the aviation market unbeatable fuel efficiency and performance: the Turbo Diesel/JetA1 power plant offers an outstanding cruise-fuel burn that ranges from 4.5 USG/hr (17 litres/hr) at 55% power, to 7 USG/hr (27 litres/hr) at 75% power. This provides consistent performance up to 8,000ft and allows operations up to 18,000ft, allowing the P2010 to “soar higher” (for which an optional oxygen system is available). The standard P2010 fuel tanks ensure an unrivalled range in excess of 1,000 NM and endurance of up to 12 hours, all monitored through the state-of-the-art standard Garmin G1000Nxi avionics package. TECNAM and Continental are working on the latest improvement of Sustainable Aviation Fuel, for a real commitment for a greener future with SAF.

“The addition of the Continental Diesel Engine is more proof that Tecnam is dedicated to the General Aviation Marketplace by providing safe, efficient, innovative aircraft for today’s pilots,” says Tecnam’s Director of Sales, David Copeland. The TECNAM Engineering Team paid particular attention to maintaining the P2010 series design characteristics that provide: cabin comfort, low noise and minimal vibration. The GFC-700 autopilot with ESP Electronic Stability and Protection, which ensures smooth and precise autopilot operations in now included in the Standard Package, while some of the many options available include Premium Italian Leather interiors with electric seat and additional safety that can be provided by the Garmin GTS-800 TAS system.

The P2010 TDI is a culmination of all the very latest technologies, where Tecnam’s ability to manage both metal and composite components has shaped a unique solution in terms of efficiency, load-carrying structure and unique Italian style. The fuselage and vertical fin, entirely made of pre-peg carbon fibres, provide the best use of space, while wings, horizontal tail and rudder, as well as all the load-carrying structures, are built with 70 plus years of experience of light alloy structures.

Flight safety is self-evident in the latest certification requirements, followed by the electrically operated, adjustable-height seats with 26G-capable crashworthiness. The flying experience is the ultimate with the Garmin® G1000® NXi glass cockpit and GFCTM 700 autopilot, entirely integrated and tuned around the Continental® CD-170 engine. Continental’s JetA1/Diesel-powered 170 HP engine offers ease of flying with its single-lever control, full FADEC, electronic engine monitoring and redundant safety features. The CD-170 is the newest design and also the highest-horsepower engine in the CD-100 series, well-proven with more than 7,500 engines delivered and over 8.5 million service flight hours. Tecnam’s Managing Director, Giovanni Pascale says: “The FAA certification of the P2010 Tdi marks a significant milestone for the Tecnam US Market, the availability of Jet A1 in every airport makes our four-seater the ideal machine for cross-country mission and efficient flight training.”

Tecnam P2010 TDI erhält EASA-Musterzulassung

Nach der Weltpremiere im Mai 2020, bei der der P2010 TDI auf den Markt gebracht wurde, hat Costruzioni Aeronautiche TECNAM SpA® den Erhalt der Musterzulassung für den P2010 TDI bekannt gegeben. Die P2010 TDI-Zertifizierung ist die jüngste Errungenschaft der Entwicklungs- und Innovationsprogramme von Tecnam, die den Diesel/JetA1-Motor zu der bereits umfangreichen Auswahl an Avgas- und Mogas-getriebenen Flugzeugen von TECNAM hinzufügen. Zusammen mit den 180 PS starken Avgas/Mogas- und 215 PS starken Avgas-Motoren erweitert die Zertifizierung des 170 PS starken TDI die Auswahl für P2010-Kunden.

Die neueste Motorenentwicklung bringt dem Luftfahrtmarkt neue Kraftstoffeffizienz und Leistung: Das Turbo-Diesel/JetA1-Triebwerk bietet einen hervorragenden Cruise-Fuel-Brennstoffverbrauch, der von 4,5 USG/h (17 Liter/h) bei 55% Leistung bis zu 7 USG/h (27 Liter/h) bei 75% Leistung reicht. Dies bietet eine konstante Leistung bis zu 8.000 Fuß und ermöglicht Operationen bis zu 18.000 Fuß, wodurch die P2010 auf „neue Höhen“ gehoben wird (für die ein Sauerstoffsystem vorgesehen ist). Darüber hinaus gewährleisten die P2010-Treibstofftanks eine unübertroffene Reichweite von mehr als 1.000 nm und eine Betriebsdauer von bis zu 15 Stunden, überwacht von einem hochmodernen Standard-Avionikpaket G1000NXI. Das TECNAM-Konstruktionsteam hat darauf geachtet, dass die Eigenschaften der P2010-Serie – hoher Komfort, geringe Geräuschentwicklung und minimale Vibrationen – erhalten bleiben. Erhältlich sind u.a. eine Premium-Lederausstattung mit elektrischen Sitzen, ein GFC-700-Autopilot, der einen reibungslosen und präzisen Autopilotenbetrieb gewährleistet und ein Garmin GTS-800 TAS-System.

Tecnam announces the new P2010TDI

Schreibe eine Antwort

TECNAM SpA has announced the introduction of a new player into the General Aviation arena. With the Type Certificate expected by July, the P2010 TDI has been one of the most secret development programs. Burning just 5.2 US Gal per hour (less than 20 litres), with roomy, Italian-style shaped cabin interiors, and taking advantage of the high-wing configuration with 3 access doors plus another dedicated one for the baggage compartment, is no longer a dream. And it is no longer a dream to cover 1,000nm with the full tank capacity of 63 US Gal (240 litres). The P2010 TDI role is to fill a gap in customer choices, as they can now order the “Twenty-Ten” with three different powerplants, and three different fuel capabilities: automotive unleaded (approved on 180hp version), Avgas on the most powerful 215hp variant and, from now on, Jet/diesel.

The P2010 TDI is a concentrate of state-of-the-art technologies, where Tecnam’s capabilities to manage both metal and composite technologies has shaped a unique solution in terms of efficiency, load-carrying structure and unique Italian style: fuselage and vertical fin entirely made of pre-peg carbon fibers provide the best use of space, while wings, horizontal tail and rudder, as well as all the load-carrying structures, are built with 70 years’ experience of light alloy structures. Flight safety is self-explanatory in the latest certification requirements followed by the electrically adjustable height, 26G-capable crashworthy seats, while flying experience is the ultimate with the Garmin® G1000® NXi glass cockpit and GFCTM 700 autopilot, entirely integrated and tuned around the ContinentalTM CD-170, full FADEC and single-lever controlled engine.

Continental’s Jet/diesel powered 170 HP engine offers ease of flying with its single lever, coupled with electronic engine monitoring and redundant safety features. The CD-170 is the newest design and also the highest-horsepower engine in the CD-100 series family, proven with more than 6,000 engines delivered and over 7.1 million service flight hours.
