Re: Partenavia P.68
History
First flown on 25 May 1970, the prototype P.68 was built at [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien], Italy.
It was powered by two 200 hp (149 kW) [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] piston engines.
Production of the P.68 began in 1972 with 14 pre-production aircraft at new facilities in [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien], Italy.
These were followed in 1974 by the P.68B with the fuselage lengthened by 6in (15.2 cm) to create more space in the cockpit.
It was superseded in 1979 by the P.68C which had a lengthened nose to accommodate a weather radar.
A turbocharged version (the P.68C-TC) was available in 1980.
The type license was obtained by [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien], which is still producing the P.68C.

Observer
The [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] company [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] modified the P.68 by replacing the nose section with a transparent structure, marketing it as an observation aircraft for law enforcement.
Initially, Observers were simply conversions of existing aircraft, but later, they were entirely new aircraft built by Partenavia.
