Scroll to bottom of page for 5min VIDEO of Tecnam 3955
We (Linda and Dominic Court) bought Tecnam 3955 new from Italy thro' Bruce Stark (Tecnam Australia), with its arrival Oct 2003. 100hp Rotax engine ser no: 4429078. It has just under 600hrs on the clock and has never been involved in an accident/incident. It has been maintained by an ex-RAAF AME, with its last service (600hrly engine and airframe) being conducted by Richard Eacott (Rotax recognised Rotax Specialist) and a Level 3/LAME on the airframe.
It has had one pilot (Linda) who already had her licence at delivery. She is now a CFI but has never used 3955 for any training whatsoever. It has always been hangared (in our own hangar at Caboolture ie nil "hangar rash") aside from when we are on our air safaris around Australia.
