Piaggio Aerospace delivers a new Avanti EVO to a North American Customer
Piaggio
Aerospace has just delivered a new P.180
Avanti EVO, the iconic turboprop produced by the Italian firm in
Villanova d’Albenga and Genoa, to a young businessman from Missouri (USA).
The aircraft has an 8-passenger VIP configuration and sports
a custom grey and blue livery co-designed with the customer. It also features a
significant technological innovation: it is the first Avanti EVO equipped with
an Enhanced
Vision System (EVS), designed to improve pilots’ vision at night and
in low-visibility conditions. This system comprises a high-resolution digital
camera integrated with infrared technology, providing real-time information to
the pilot and co-pilot’s multifunction display.
Eleven other Avanti EVOs are currently in production
at Piaggio Aerospace’s factory in Villanova d’Albenga.
