About the Tecnam P2019

The Tecnam P2019 is a modern Italian light-sport aircraft that entered production in 2017, designed by the Pascale brothers' Costruzioni Aeronautiche Tecnam. Built as a high-wing, side-by-side two-seater, the P2019 targets the flight training and personal recreation markets with a focus on efficiency and ease of handling. It's powered by the fuel-injected Rotax 912iS engine producing 100 horsepower, driving a constant-speed propeller, a relatively sophisticated powerplant for the LSA category that delivers excellent fuel economy and smooth operation at altitude.

The aircraft's composite construction keeps the maximum takeoff weight at exactly 1,320 pounds, the upper limit for the U.S. light-sport category, while providing a roomy cabin with excellent visibility through large windows. The P2019's handling characteristics are benign, with a stall speed in landing configuration of just 39 knots and a never-exceed speed of 151 knots, giving student pilots and recreational flyers a comfortable margin. Its cruise speed of around 120 knots and range of approximately 600 nautical miles make it practical for cross-country training and weekend trips, while the high wing provides stable flight characteristics and easy ground handling.

Tecnam designed the P2019 with modern avionics integration in mind, typically equipping aircraft with Garmin glass cockpits, and the type has found favor with flight schools seeking a contemporary trainer that bridges the gap between legacy trainers and more complex aircraft. The model competes directly with the Cessna 162 Skycatcher and Flight Design CT-series in the LSA training market. SkyMeter has tracked flights across airframes and operators, with the largest observed operator.
