Overview

The Piaggio P.180 Avanti EVO at a glance

The Avanti's unusual configuration makes it a favourite for European charter operators who need short-runway performance and jet-like speed on Mediterranean routes. The EVO refresh (2014) added winglets, scimitar-blade five-bladed propellers with 68 percent lower external noise, redesigned nacelles, and a new cabin management system. Range extends to 1,720 nm with four passengers, enough to link Rome to Moscow or London to Reykjavik without a stop.

Questions

Piaggio P.180 Avanti EVO FAQ

How does the Avanti EVO compare to a light jet?
The Avanti is roughly as fast as a Citation M2, has a larger cabin than a Phenom 100, and burns 30 to 40 percent less fuel per hour. It gives up cabin altitude comfort at FL450 and true jet dispatch reliability, but wins on operating cost and short-field performance.
Where is it built?
Piaggio Aerospace's plant in Villanova d'Albenga, Italy. Genoa is the corporate base.
What runway does it need?
About 869 m (2,850 ft). It comfortably operates from Lugano, London City (with restrictions), Elba, Courchevel and most Alpine strips.
Is it noisy inside?
The five-bladed props on the EVO cut external noise by 68 percent versus the original P.180; internal noise at cruise is comparable to a light jet.
Where can I charter one in Europe?
Operators in Italy, Germany, Switzerland and Malta run Avanti fleets; a JetAlto quote will surface the closest available tail.
