PC-12 NG – Apex Avionics System

Based in Stans, Switzerland, Pilatus Aircraft Ltd was established in 1939. Seventy percent of all PC-12s which come off the production line in Stans, Switzerland are finished to customer specifications (interior and exterior livery) in Colorado. The American subsidiary is also responsible for PC-12 marketing, sales and servicing activities in North and South America.

The Pilatus experience continues on:

Thank you Capt Johnson for a very comprehensive tour guide of the PC-12 instrument's panel. Very impressive. Hopefully, I will join the the Pilatus Family.

Fine system, excellent review of its capabilities.

Amazing aircraft, the best singleturboprop ever! Thanks for the video!

[rileywoods]

The honeywell apex alone is a selling point for this aircraft. I cannot believe how easy it is to navigate and fly IFR.

Very good presentation, Very much like the apex system!

[jameswikstrom]

The Honeywell Primus Avionics System is one of the best I have seen. It takes all of the guess work out of flying and adds another level of safety. Ease of operation is wonderful as well as the flight displays. The PC-12 takes flying to another level! Absolutely, one of my favorite airplanes. I like the TBM-850 but no comparison to the Pilatus!

Превосходно! Замечательная авионика... Сколько вложено трудов... Спасибо за обзор!

[Catbat]

no more searching for those jeppesen charts each time you prepare for approach!! :D

[Windtee]

It's about as good as it gets. It's a fine flying-system.

[MultiGrumman]

Собрано, информативно и безопасно! Молодцы! Спасибо за представление ещё раз:)!

Awesome video...very detailed and it certainly helped to get a heads up before indoc.

[sweetcheels]

I have a picture of this very PC12 that the demo pilots let me take back in 2013. Pic is so beautiful I'm sure Pilatus themselves would pay for it.

Open question...Can the lower DU (MFD) be configured to display weight units in metrics (KGS)? All videos I have seen show weights are in standard units (lbs)

[GolfOscarRomeo]

Please, do this avionics to X-Plane 11 ASAP PLEASE kkk

[regressmenot]

SOLD.... I'll take one in red please.

[rumblethis]

Quality actually justifies the price!
(Almost) 😂

So how far and how many hours of operation on a full tank of fuel?

[RudeMcNasty]

I'm not a pilot, if somebody can answer these questions that would be fantastic. How smart is the system, if somebody were to input LAX to Honolulu 2, 559.88 mi will the system say" I hope you're really good swimmer" or some other message. In Europe there's really high mountain ranges if a pilot were to put a destination and an altitude that's insufficient to a clear mountains will Apex Avionics system alert the pilot .

I would like an APP for my i-pad that I could use to fill in my flight plan while at home, cab or in the FBO. The idea being all the detail work is done, total flight profile,  departures, routes, FL, ALT field, ( 0:00 to 5:00 of this video). Then after the onboard system start-up is completed, the FP is synced via bluetooth. A quick review of the transfer to the working system and you are ready for start up.

The goal is to minimize idle time in the cockpit.

Is this the standard avionics package for the NG or is this suite an option?
