Piaggio Aerospace

Piaggio Aerospace Company – Aircraft, Avanti P180, and Private Aviation

Piaggio Aerospace is an Italian aerospace manufacturer headquartered in Villanova d’Albenga, Italy. With roots dating back to 1884, the company has evolved into a highly specialized developer of advanced aircraft and propulsion systems. Piaggio is best known in private aviation for its iconic Piaggio Avanti P180, a high-speed turboprop aircraft that offers jet-like performance and cabin comfort.

Piaggio Aerospace operates across multiple segments, including the design and production of aero-engines, aerostructures, and fixed-wing aircraft. Its product lineup spans from business and ISR aircraft to unmanned aerial systems (UAS). The company also provides aircraft MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul) services, as well as long-term support for its fleets.

Aircraft and Business Aviation

In the private aviation sector, Piaggio’s standout aircraft is the Piaggio Avanti EVO, the latest evolution of the P180 Avanti series. Known for its signature pusher propeller configuration and sleek Italian design, the Avanti combines fuel efficiency, speed, and a spacious stand-up cabin—all while offering operating costs significantly lower than light jets.

You can charter the Piaggio Avanti P180 with JetOptions Private Jets. This twin-turboprop aircraft is ideal for short to mid-range routes, delivering a quiet cabin and excellent fuel economy for executive and VIP travelers.

Defense, ISR, and Government Sectors

Beyond civil aviation, Piaggio Aerospace has expanded its reach into defense and surveillance with the development of:

  • Multi-role patrol aircraft for maritime and border surveillance
  • ISR aircraft (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance)
  • Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) for tactical and strategic use

The Italian Armed Forces and various international agencies use its military and government aircraft. These programs help reinforce Piaggio’s place as a global aerospace systems provider.

To support its North American customers, Piaggio Aerospace operates a U.S. subsidiary, Piaggio America, located in West Palm Beach, Florida. This branch manages sales, service, and fleet support for the Piaggio Avanti family of aircraft across the Americas.
