Tecnam P2002-JF

Our primary training aircraft fleet is the TECNAM P2002-JF model which are EASA certified under CS-VLA rules and is therefore fully approved for Private Pilot Licence (PPL) training in EASA Europe and the UK

The TECNAM P2002-JF fleet continue to grow and currently include:

EC-NZS + PH-EPT + F-HFGX + PH-IGY

All aircraft were bought new from the factory, the oldest being 2011, and have always been under Part-CAO / CAMO - Continuing Airworthiness Maintenance Organisation - with Airmotive Aviation Ltd, ITAER INGENIERIA SL, Madrid, and Efficient Flight, Reus. Aircraft continuous airworthiness and maintenance is now under EASA Part-CAO with Cycloon Holland and are impeccably maintained by Turmina General Aviation Maintenance. All ADs are complied with. The aircraft are in very good condition overall.

In 2016 the Argentine Air Force ordered the TECNAM P2002JF as its primary trainer, as did the (Greek) Hellenic Air Force in 2018.

With a modern design and low operational costs, the TECNAM P2002-JF is Fly EPT Spain's training aircraft of choice. Easy to fly and maintain, the P2002-JF is an excellent aeroplane for the training of ab-initio student pilots.

Weight & Loading

Baggage allowance: 20 kg
Useful Load: 240 kg (i.e. passengers + cargo + fuel)
Maximum Take Off Weight (MTOW): 620 kg
Empty Weight, Standard: 380 kg

Note: To calculate weight of fuel / AVGAS / MOGAS ✈︎ 1 litre of AvGas / MoGas = 0.79 kg (density). Therefore, 100 litres (max fuel capacity) x 0.79 kg = 79 kgs

Powerplant

Powerplant / Engine: Rotax 912 S2
Engine Power: 100 HP
Propellor: 2 Blade Fixed Pitch (Hoffman Fixed Pitch PN HO17GHM A 174 177 C)

Fuel

Fuel tank capacity: 26 US Gal (100 liters)
Two (2) wing fuel tanks: 13 US Gal (50 liters) each side
Fuel Consumption: 4.5 USG/hr. (17 liters/hr.)
Fuel type: MoGas and AvGas

Fuel indicator is calibrated as follows:

Indicator Fuel Quantity	Liters
0	0.5
1/4	15 (+3 / -3)
1/2	25 (+3 / -3)
3/4	35 (+3 / -3)
4/4	50 (+0 / -3)

You must land at destination with NOT less than final reserve i.e. 45 minutes of fuel remaining i.e. a total of 13 liters (nearly 1/4 on the fuel indicator)

Fuel endurance = 100 litres (total fuel) - 13 litres (final reserve) = 87 litres (useable fuel) / 17 litres/hour (fuel consumption) = 5:06 hours (approximate) maximum fuel endurance

MOGAS in Binissalem Aerodrome, Mallorca

MOGAS can be found near Binissalem Aerodrome, at REPSOL and EROOSKI 24-hour gas stations. Check map here

The TECNAM P2002-JF has a ROTAX engine which accepts ordinary unleaded 95 MOGAS, and it is far cheaper to fill up with MoGAS using these 20-litre plastic jerry cans at the local petrol station than to fill up with leaded AVGAS which is more expensive. Budget conscious hour builders can refuel in this manner, and make some fuel savings.

OIL

Max oil capacity: 3.0 liters
Min oil capacity: 2.0 liters
Minimum recommended Oil level before Takeoff: 2.5 litres
Max Oil consumption: Max: 0.1 liters/hour
The only Oil recommended by ROTAX for the ROTAX 912 engine: Aeroshell Oil Sport Plus 4

The pilot is responsible for ensuring that the airplane is properly loaded. Refer to AFM Section 6, page 104+ for appropriate loading instructions

On Board Survival Equipment

With the aircraft being based on the Spanish island of Mallorca, there is an element of some cross country flight over water to reach the neighbouring islands of Menorca, Ibiza and mainland Spain. With safety always on our mind first and foremost, we'd like to address a few important safety points.

Firstly, Fly EPT Spain's TECNAM P2002-JF aircraft continuous airworthiness and rigorous maintenance program is under EASA Part-CAO. Maintenance is never deferred. All ADD's are complied with. Routine maintenance is scheduled every 50 hours, with annual checks performed, practically speaking, every month. The engine / gearbox / propellor are replaced with new every 2,000 hours. Rest assured the entire fleet of aircraft have been impeccably maintained since purchased new.

While the risk of an engine failure is relatively low, risk can be further minimized by the pilot in command (PIC) ensuring the following safety checks:

Before commencing flight over water, fill up the Fuel tanks FULL up to maximum
Before flight, always check the fuel for water contamination. After adding AvGas/MoGas, let the fuel tanks settle for 15 minutes before sumping them.

The following survival equipment is generally left either on board the aircraft or in the Fly EPT Spain office. For flights over water, take them with you and check to ensure they are onboard the aircraft, and annotate the flight plan accordingly:-
