The Messenger is a small turboprop aircraft primarily designed to be a small, efficient business aircraft, but due to it’s great views from the cockpit it was often used as an police observation aircraft. It has also been used for airborne photography and mapping and even as an army cooperation plane used for observing and guiding artillery and ground units.

This plane was inspired by the P68 observer 2 and the Tecnam PT2006.
