AirTaxi Express Expands with Tecnam P2006T NG
FRIEDRICHSHAFEN, Germany – April 23, 2026 – Live from the AERO Friedrichshafen exhibition, Tecnam and German operator AirTaxi Express AG are proud to announce a strategic fleet expansion. To support the growing demand for accessible, fast, and affordable regional travel, AirTaxi Express has selected the twin-engine Tecnam P2006T NG for its commercial Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations across Europe.
AirTaxi Express initially launched its successful air taxi operations in Germany utilizing a VFR ultralight Tecnam P92 Echo MKII. Driven by market demand, the company is now expanding its capabilities with the P2006T NG, which will be operated under a German Air Operator Certificate (AOC). This milestone upgrade enables AirTaxi Express to offer reliable, all-weather IFR flights to its customers throughout the European continent.
Cost-Efficient Operations, Affordable Travel
The Tecnam P2006T NG stands out as the most cost-efficient twin-engine aircraft on the market for commercial IFR flights. For AirTaxi Express, these exceptionally low operating costs translate directly into affordable ticket prices for guests. Flying with the P2006T instead of using conventional modes of travel, such as trains or cars, will save passengers approximately 70% in travel time.
Additionally, the aircraft features a comfortable, spacious interior with easy entry access, ensuring a premium passenger experience. Operationally, the P2006T is a highly recognized platform within the aviation community, meaning a vast pool of pilots have already completed their multi-engine training on the aircraft, streamlining recruitment and crew integration for the operator.

Transitioning from the single-engine P92 to the multi-engine P2006T NG perfectly demonstrates how our versatile product line can seamlessly support an operator’s evolution.
