Flying the Updated Pilatus PC-24 Super Versatile Jet – AIN

Показать описание

The Pilatus PC-24 is a unique airplane and its features, amenities, and performance have made it a top seller in the light jet market.

In 2023, Pilatus Aircraft announced major upgrades to the PC-24, including structural changes that resulted in a 600-pound payload increase to 3,100 pounds and range with six passengers growing to 2000 nautical miles.

With a massive cargo door, 501-cubic-foot cabin, and its ability to take off and land on unpaved runways, the PC-24 has sold more than 500 copies since entering service in 2017.

To experience the new features in the latest version of the PC-24, AIN editor-in-chief Matt Thurber jumped at the opportunity to go flying with Pilatus Business Aircraft chief pilot Gerard Lambe.

Thank you for having a proper aviation journalist cover the new 500+ series. Excellent content as always from AIN.

I just flew a Phenom 300 from KPUB to KTEX and back just the other day, so this is an apples to apples performance comparison while its all fresh in my mind! What a cool aircraft the PC-24 is!

Not having hands on the controls on a single engine go around is a pretty bold choice.

1600 hrs in the PC24. All single pilot. There is no finer airplane.

ery nice aircraft. I can see several air ambulance companies upgrading to this series of aircraft from the PC-12 in the near future (depending on need). I also like the feature of the flaps being designed to accommodate the safety of dirt and rocks not getting kicked up into the engines upon touching down onto a dirt runway.

No hand on throttles during the whole take off roll?

4:25 can I get one with Garmin instead? I know Honeywell has been around forever, it shows.

I love this plane and if given the chance, I’d buy one. Nonetheless, I would like to see this airplane’s manufacture implement thee get home safe button that a lot of other aircraft manufacturers are intergrading into their planes…..
