The Tecnam P-2008 Gran Turismo (Grand Tourer) was released to the market by the manufacturers, Tecnam, in Italy in 2009. It was an all-new design combining a carbon-fibre fuselage with a metal wing and stabilator.

The Taylor Titch, like the Taylor Monoplane, was designed by the late Mr John Taylor in the United Kingdom and was designed to improve on the basic design of the JT.1 but not to replace that aircraft as the aerodynamic characteristics of the two were different.

The F-12 series was developed from the F-11 series which in turn was developed from the Jodel D-11The F-12 had an enlarged cockpit, simplified fittings and aerodynamic improvements which improve the aircraft’s stall characteristics
