Piaggio Marks First Chinese Delivery of Avanti II Twin Turboprop

Piaggio made its first Chinese delivery of the Avanti II to distributor CAEA Aviation Investment today at Airshow China 2012 in Zhuhai. The twin turboprop, along with a second Avanti yet to be delivered, will be operated by CAEA subsidiary Free Sky Aviation in a new turbine-aircraft membership program for private clients. Beijing-based CAEA was formed last July and, in addition to new and pre-owned aircraft sales, it is also active in aircraft management, financing and leasing, as well as in business aircraft maintenance and handling.
