Swiss airplane producer, Pilatus, had chosen the European Business Aviation Convention and Expo, as a location for presenting their novelty – Pilatus PC-24…
This jet was presented on the fore mentioned convention, held in Geneva, in May last year, and now, one year later, this company is taking in first orders for their new jet. The first one is expected to be delivered in august this year.
This new jet is developed based on client response for the PC-12 model, which they liked very much, considering the fact that they had all wanted something more than just another turbine-powered jet. The novelty, PC-24, is powered by twin Williams FJ44-4A turbo-fan engines, which generate a lot of power, giving it the ability to achieve maximum speed of about 787 km per hour. It has a range of 2.245 miles, while 10 passengers can be comfortably settled within it. Only one pilot is needed to drive this plane.
The first range of this jet, which this brand announced is already sold out, with the price of 9 million dollars.
