I'm doing some research on what kits are available that are a twin-
engine design.

I'm looking at possibly building and was curious since Google finds
the obvious but didn't want to wade through 20 pages of stuff to find
the non-obvious.

Thanks.

Hi Brad, the big question on my mind is WHY?

Now just imagine he had answered that for himself before posting


Those kits looked horribly expensive. I wonder what the Tecnam P2006
will sell for?


The current guess is US$250K. (I'm doing BFR prep with a Tecnam dealer.
It's been 32 years since I last flew...things are different from then.)


Meanwhile, from another post on this thread...I'm going to ask tomorrow
about the price again; it being not unlikely that I got it wrong.

You might wish to consult http://www.tecnam.com/brouchure/BrP2006T.pdf
which says 260.000 euro's - at the current rate of exchange 260.000 US$
will not do. Horribly expensive, yes, it is that.

Woof!

More like US$380,000 currently. Which seems more than a touch high,
given that their singles are currently running around $100K, using about
the same engine that the 2006T will. Double the price, such a deal!

Triple or nearly quadruple, not so much.

I wonder what dealer cost would be, come to think about it...
