After receiving Transport Canada certification just over a month ago, the Tecnam P2006T has been selected to upgrade the training fleet at Canada’s Mount Royal University, which will receive three of the Italian-made twin-engine airplanes in December.

The Tecnam P2006Ts will come equipped with Garmin’s 950 avionics suite, S-Tec 55X autopilots and ADF, and will join Mount Royal’s existing fleet of two Grumman Cougars and seven Cessna 172s.
