StatusIn development

The Piaggio P1XX is a proposed twin-jet aircraft being developed by Piaggio Aero. [1] Piaggio has assured potential buyers that the design is not merely a "re-engine" of the P180 Avanti. [2] A dedicated team is working on the design. In August 2010, Piaggio announced that the jet would not be formally launched in 2010, due to weak market conditions. [3]

Piaggio has been in negotiations with at least one engine supplier, but none has yet been named. [4]
