GENERAL DESCRIPTION The single-engined Tecnam P2008’s versatility and ease of use has established it as both the aircraft of choice for Flight Training Organisations worldwide as well as recreational flyers alike. The Tecnam P2008JC is the best in its class, incorporates a level of comfort, quality and efficiency that have made it the ideal touring aircraft, assuring pilots and passengers alike of a very comfortable environment and the smoothest of flight experiences. With its carbon fibre fuselage, metal wings and stabilator, the Tecnam P2008JC has a vast number of advantages over traditional aircraft. The combination of both composite material and metal has resulted in a more fuel efficient and much quieter aircraft. Pilots appreciate the quality and security built into this popular Tecnam design. The Tecnam P2008JC is equipped with full electronic flight display screens rather than the traditional knobs and dials seen on typical aircraft instrument panels. Innovation is in the air Construction The P2008JC has both metal wings and a metal stabilator. Tecnam chose to construct the P2008 with metal wings and stabilator structures for strength, reliability, and the ability to flex in flight, thereby ensuring a more comfortable ride. To produce the desired increase in cabin width and greater aerodynamic efficiency, Tecnam chose carbon fibre. The decision to use both materials was for the optimisation of aerodynamic qualities, flight characteristic, and reliability. This addition enables Tecnam to make construction decisions based on optimum design and structural integrity rather than purely the cost of production. The wing is based on the well-known NACA63A airfoil, and through partial tapering, it is brought close to the optimal lift distribution (elliptical). The single-slot flaps extend along much of the wing span. The Frise type aileron along with the taper design provides a high rate of roll. The all movable type (stabilator) horizontal tail, traditional on Tecnam aircraft, allows excellent controllability and excellent “hands off” longitudinal stability. P2008JC Landing Gear The main springleaf landing gear, including wheels, tires and fairings, are the same as all of the other non-retractable Tecnam models. This design has withstood the test of time and extensive use in flight training environments. The newly designed nose gear is free castoring and consists of a tubular steel leg, connected to the lower engine mount attachments and is braced by an oleo pneumatic shock absorber that provides excellent ground load absorption. All of the landing gear is faired to minimise drag, ground steering is by differential braking. Certification The Tecnam P2008JC is delivered in full compliance with the requirements of EASA CS-VLA.

modifications. The P2008JC has higher fuel capacity than the existing line (55x2 lt - 14.5x2 US Gal) and tanks are installed in the wing box, behind the main spar. This is to preserve their integrity in case of a crash landing and to minimize fire potential. The instrument panel size is increased to match the additional cabin width. It is modular in design and can accommodate the most complete instrumentation.
