The Pilatus PC-24 is a light business jet produced by Pilatus Aircraft of Switzerland. Following the success of the PC-12 single engine turboprop, work on the twin engine jet began in 2007 for greater range and speed, keeping the rough-field capability. The aircraft was introduced on 21 May 2013 and rolled out on 1 August 2014, with the maiden flight on 11 May 2015. The PC-24 received EASA and FAA type certification on 7 December 2017 and the first customer delivery was on 7 February 2018. Powered by two Williams FJ44 turbofans, it competes with the Embraer Phenom 300 and the Cessna Citation CJ4.

Key Information

Development

[edit]

During the 1990s, Pilatus Aircraft had brought to market the Pilatus PC-12, a single-engine turboprop-powered business aircraft. As the PC-12 quickly proved to be a commercial success, Pilatus sought to follow up with a complementary aircraft and began gathering feedback from customers of the type. In response to this request, several customers reportedly expressed a desire for an aircraft that would possess both a greater range and top speed than the existing PC-12, while retaining the type's overall ruggedness and ability to make use of very short runways.[3] Based on this feedback, Pilatus elected to pursue development of such an aircraft. In 2007, Pilatus initiated work on the program.[4] Development of the aircraft was conducted using existing company funds.[3] The design program was first mentioned by Pilatus in its May 2011 annual report.[5]

On 21 May 2013, the PC-24 was introduced to the public at the European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (EBACE) in Geneva. At the time, Pilatus chairman Oscar Schwenk claimed the PC-24 did not fit into any existing business jet categories, and stated that the aircraft was the only one that combined "...the versatility of a turboprop with the cabin size of a medium light jet, and the performance of a light jet".[6]

On 1 August 2014, which is also Switzerland's national day, P01, the first of the three PC-24 prototypes, was rolled out.[7] Each of these three prototypes serve different functions in the development program; P01 is intended for exploring the flight envelope of the type, P02 is mainly for trialling the avionics and autopilot integration, and will spend much of its testing life in the US, while P03 is to be representative of production aircraft and will incorporate improvements made based upon the development work performed with the other two aircraft.[4]

Flight testing

[edit]

The first flight of the prototype had been originally anticipated to take place in late 2014, but this was delayed.[8] On 11 May 2015, P01 conducted its first flight from Buochs Airport, Switzerland, for a total of 55 minutes. The occasion marked the start of test flights for the aircraft's two-year certification campaign.[9][10] At the time, type certification and initial deliveries were anticipated for 2017.[11][12]

On 16 November 2015, P02, the second prototype, performed its maiden flight, lasting for 82 minutes; by this date, P01 had accumulated a total of 150 flying hours and had performed over 100 flights.[13][14] In May 2016, P01 took a brief intermission in the test program to appear on static display at EBACE; by this point, P01 and P02 had accumulated more than 500 flight hours between them.[15] During EBACE 2016, it was commented that the program was on track and test flights had been free of surprises; during a transatlantic crossing to the US, P02 had achieved a cruise speed in excess of 800 km/h (430 kn), which was better than expected.[12]

The PC-24 flight-test fleet was completed with the addition of the third prototype of P03 in March 2017; by May they had logged 950 flights and 1,525 hours.[16] In August 2017, Williams International received type and production certification from the EASA and FAA for its FJ44-4A-QPM while the three test aircraft accumulated over 1,700h of flight tests, on schedule for certification and introduction in the fourth quarter.[17] By October 2017, more than 2,000 hours had been flown, with the P01 prototype flying 626 times and 900 hours. The P03 prototype will complete a functional and reliability program, including 150 hours over six weeks before certification is completed and initial deliveries commence.[18]

Type certification was granted on 7 December 2017, as placarded at the April 2018 AERO Friedrichshafen.

The three prototypes flew 2205 hours including icing conditions and very hot temperatures, outside its flight envelope, bird strikes, structural stress tests and noise tests before it received EASA and FAA type certification on 7 December 2017. Its performance goals were met or exceeded, like its maximum speed raised from 425 to 440 knots (787 to 815 km/h).[19]

In the fourth quarter of 2018, the aircraft was certified by EU and US air authorities to land on and take off from dry sand or gravel runways.[20] Australian RFDS was scheduled to start medevac in 2019.[21] Transport Canada certification was awarded on 27 June 2019.[22] In February 2020, the design was approved for rough field operation, certifying the aircraft to operate to and from grass, wet earth and snow-covered surfaces, following a multiyear certification campaign.[20][23]

Production

[edit]

In late 2014, an agreement between Pilatus and FlightSafety International will see the latter conduct US-based PC-24 pilot and technician training in Dallas, Texas.[24] In May 2017, series production was under way for a fourth quarter first delivery to PlaneSense, following certification.[16]

In December 2017, eight PC-24s were on the assembly line and 23 deliveries were planned for 2018.[19] The first customer delivery was completed on 7 February 2018 to PlaneSense.[25][26]

In 2018, 23 to 24 were planned for delivery, with 40 planned for 2019 and then 50 per year.[27]

On 11 October 2018, its MTOW was raised from 8,005 to 8,300 kg (17,650 to 18,300 lb), from the 31st serial aircraft produced, while its zero-fuel weight (empty weight plus payload) grew by 350 kg (770 lb).[28]

Orders and deliveries

[edit]

At the May 2014 EBACE, Pilatus sold the initial production run of 84 units 36 hours after orders opened. This first batch of orders is to be delivered until early 2020. Orders were to reopen after publishing the aircraft's final performance data and assessing operators' feedback. Throughout its 40-year lifecycle, Pilatus plan to produce 4,000 units.[29] A PC-24 was ordered to transport the Swiss Federal Council.[30] When it was certified in December 2017, it was priced at US$8.9M.[5]

On 26 November 2018, the first of five was delivered to the Royal Flying Doctor Service of Australia, supplementing its 35 PC-12s single turboprops. Unpaved and short 856 m (2,808 ft) runways should be allowed next, and it should enter service in early 2019 as an air ambulance with three beds and an electric stretcher loader.[31] They feature individual oxygen, vacuum and power systems for patient monitoring and support installed under a supplemental type certificate by aircraft medical interiors specialist Aerolite AG, for $13 million complete each.[32] It will replace a midsize Hawker 800XP operated in Western Australia since 2009, a gravel kit will be available by the end of the year, and Pilatus is working on operating on narrow runways, from 23 to 18 m (75 to 59 ft).[33]

By May 2019, Pilatus had sold 30 units and reopened the PC-24 orderbook at the EBACE show, with about 80 delivery positions made available at a price of $10.7 million each, for late 2020 and 2021 deliveries. Of these new positions half were sold within days.[34] The PC-24 had been granted European and US steep approach certification, including for London City airport's 5.5° approach and short runway, plus dirt and gravel runway operations.[35] Rough-field certification was approved for grass, wet earth and snow operations in late January 2020.[36]

The 50th was delivered by October 2019,[37] and the 100th by January 2021.[38]

In 2023, its equipped price was $12.2M.[39]

Design

Market

[edit]

The PC-24 is the company's first jet-powered aircraft.[6] Several competing business aircraft were identified early on, including Embraer's Phenom 300 and Cessna's Citation CJ4.[3]

Airframe

[edit]

It is a low-wing cantilever cabin monoplane powered by two Williams FJ44-4A turbofans, each mounted in a nacelle on the side of the rear fuselage. It has a T-tail and a retractable tricycle landing gear.[40] The aircraft is designed to operate from short and rough airstrips and incorporates an advanced wing design, with a large double-slotted flap system to achieve the necessary performance, having a stall speed of only 81 knots at the maximum landing weight.[41] The long-stroke trailing link landing gear smooths out uneven surfaces, the dual-wheel main wheels have 70 psi (4.8 bar) of pressure to prevent sinking in soft surfaces, and the wing flaps have a replaceable, abradable surface and shields the high mounted engines from loose debris.[42]

Cabin

[edit]

The cabin has room for ten passengers in the cabin and one or two pilots.[40] The cabin has three exits, a passenger door on the left-hand side near the front, overwing emergency exits on each side of the aircraft, and a cargo door on the left-hand side at the rear.[40] Pilatus claims the PC-24 is the first business jet to be fitted with this standard pallet-sized cargo door.[43]

The interior colour schemes of the PC-24 have been designed by BMW Designworks; interiors for the Americas are to be completed at a facility in Broomfield, Colorado, which will be expanded by 50% to cope with the extra demand.[13]

Cockpit

[edit]
Cockpit

Pilatus and Honeywell cooperatively designed the Advanced Cockpit Environment for the type. This is intended to reduce pilot workload and allows the PC-24 to be single-pilot certified. The avionics system is based on Honeywell Primus Epic 2.[44]

Performance

[edit]

At 45,000 ft (14,000 m) and 7,260 kg (16,010 lb), total fuel flow is 850 lb (390 kg) per hour at M0.65 long range cruise or 372 kn (689 km/h), rising to 970 lb (440 kg)/h at its M0.74 high-speed cruise.[45]

In July 2021, the design was updated with a number of refinements for new-build aircraft that can also be retro-fitted to earlier production aircraft. These updates included newly designed, lighter and more comfortable, quick release cabin seats; an optional galley to replace the forward coat closet; touchscreen-controlled avionics; tactile feedback in pitch and roll, plus limit protection; pilot-defined visual approaches and automated audible callouts. Also approved were True Blue Power lithium ion battery sets which are 84 lb (38 kg) lighter and less expensive to maintain.[46]

from Grokipedia
The Pilatus PC-24 is a twin-engine light developed and manufactured by Ltd., a Swiss aerospace company based in . Introduced as the world's first "Super Versatile Jet," it is uniquely certified to operate on short, unpaved runways such as grass, gravel, sand, or snow, combining the cabin volume of a midsize jet with the short-field capabilities and payload of a light jet. Powered by two FJ44-4A-QPM engines each producing 3,420 lbf of , the PC-24 achieves a maximum cruise speed of 440 knots (KTAS), a range of up to 2,040 nautical miles with four passengers, and a service ceiling of 45,000 feet. Development of the PC-24 began in 2007 following the success of Pilatus's PC-12 , with the program officially announced in 2013 and aimed at filling a market gap for a versatile jet capable of diverse missions including executive transport, cargo hauling, and air ambulance operations. The first prototype flew on May 21, 2015, after three prototypes accumulated over 2,200 hours. Certification was granted simultaneously by the (EASA) and the (FAA) on December 7, 2017, achieving a takeoff distance of 2,935 feet over 50 feet (better than initial targets), with production specifications at 3,090 feet under standard conditions. The first customer delivery occurred on February 7, 2018, to operator in the United States. As of 2025, over 200 PC-24s have been delivered. Key to its versatility is the PC-24's design features, including a large cargo door measuring 4 feet 3 inches high by 4 feet 1 inch wide for loading pallets, vehicles, or stretchers without disassembly, and a flat-floor cabin spanning 23 feet in length, 5 feet 7 inches in width, and 5 feet 1 inches in height, with a volume of 498 cubic feet accommodating up to 10 passengers in commuter configuration or convertible layouts for medical evacuations. The aircraft's landing gear, with high-propulsion tires and a reinforced structure, allows operations on runways as short as 2,935 feet, and it includes the Pilatus Advanced Cockpit Environment (PACE) with Honeywell Primus Apex avionics for single-pilot certification. Weights include a maximum takeoff weight of 18,740 pounds, maximum payload of 3,100 pounds, and usable fuel capacity of 5,964 pounds, enabling a full-fuel payload of 1,314 pounds with one pilot. Since entering service, the PC-24 has seen continuous enhancements, including a 2023 increasing maximum by 600 pounds and range by 200 nautical miles with six passengers through optimized and integration. Production remains active, with Pilatus delivering 51 PC-24s in 2024 as part of 153 total aircraft shipments, contributing to nearly $2 billion in annual sales. Notable operators include the , which in October 2025 became the first European military to select the PC-24 for and transport roles, leveraging its single-pilot operations and cargo capabilities. The jet's Quiet Power Mode reduces ground noise during operations by running one at sub-idle speeds.

Development

Background and announcement

Following the commercial success of the single-engine , which had become the best-selling aircraft globally with over 1,200 units delivered by , decided to expand into the segment in the late . Development of the PC-24 began in 2007, driven by customer feedback seeking greater speed and range while retaining the PC-12's short-field and rough-runway capabilities. Pilatus officially announced the PC-24 program on May 21, 2013, during the European Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (EBACE) in Geneva, Switzerland, introducing it as the world's first "Super Versatile Jet." The announcement highlighted the jet's design goals of blending turboprop-like versatility for short and unpaved runway operations with the speed of a light jet and the cabin volume of a medium jet, targeting a takeoff distance of just 2,930 feet (893 meters) from grass or gravel surfaces. At launch, Pilatus outlined an ambitious program timeline, with the first flight scheduled for May 2015 and entry into service planned for the third quarter of 2017. The company committed significant resources to the project, ultimately investing over CHF 500 million (approximately $500 million USD) of its own funds, exceeding initial projections to achieve the aircraft's innovative performance targets. The first PC-24 prototype, registered HB-VXA, was rolled out in a public ceremony on August 1, 2014, at Pilatus's facility in , , marking the transition from design to . This event, held on , showcased the aircraft's distinctive features, including its large cargo door and rugged , to an of industry stakeholders and potential customers.

Flight testing and certification

Pilatus constructed three prototypes to support the PC-24's flight test program, with each assigned specific roles to systematically validate the aircraft's and performance. The first prototype, designated P01 and registered as HB-VXA, focused on establishing the initial , including basic and handling characteristics. The second prototype, P02, was dedicated to , encompassing , , and environmental simulations such as icing conditions. The third prototype, P03 and registered as HB-VSA, served as the production-conforming aircraft for final trials, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards across all operational regimes. The program's maiden flight occurred on May 11, 2015, when P01 departed from Buochs Airport in for a 55-minute sortie. With the landing gear extended as per test protocol, the flight confirmed fundamental airworthiness, evaluating , stability, response, and low-speed handling without incident. This initial test marked the transition from ground-based validation to airborne empirical data collection, aligning with the PC-24's design goals for versatility in diverse operational environments. The ensuing flight test campaign was extensive, accumulating more than 2,200 hours across the three prototypes by late 2017 to demonstrate the aircraft's robustness under varied conditions. Testing included exposure to such as icing and high temperatures, high-altitude operations up to the service ceiling, structural load assessments, bird strike simulations, and noise compliance evaluations. To verify short-field and rough-surface capabilities central to the PC-24's versatility, trials encompassed unpaved operations and hot/high performance assessments, including sessions in for extreme heat in Phoenix and elevated conditions. By October 2016, the prototypes had logged over 1,000 hours, with ongoing evaluations in , the , and to cover global operational scenarios. Significant milestones during the campaign highlighted the PC-24's unique attributes. In , the completed its first fully loaded short-field takeoff demonstration, underscoring its ability to operate from runways as short as 2,590 feet at . Hot/high testing in further validated performance at elevations exceeding 5,000 feet in temperatures over 100°F, critical for access to remote airstrips. The addition of P02 in November 2015 expanded systems-focused trials, while P03's debut in March 2017 accelerated certification-specific flights, bringing the total hours to over 1,350 by that point. These achievements confirmed the PC-24's compliance with stringent safety and performance criteria ahead of regulatory review. On December 7, 2017, the (EASA) and the (FAA) jointly granted type certification to the PC-24, affirming its airworthiness for commercial operations. This approval encompassed single-pilot certification, allowing operation by one qualified pilot, as well as full authorization for flight into known icing conditions, reflecting successful validation of de-icing systems during the test campaign. The certification process, completed on schedule after approximately 2,300 planned test hours, positioned the PC-24 as the first certified for such a broad spectrum of utility, including unpaved access. Following certification, Pilatus implemented post-certification updates, including software enhancements to the Primus Epic suite from 2018 through 2020. These refinements improved , pilot workload management, and reliability in areas such as and environmental controls, often via supplemental type certificates. Notable among these was expanded rough-field approval in 2018 for initial unpaved operations, with further optimizations for wet and snow-covered surfaces by 2020, ensuring ongoing adaptability without altering the core certified design.

Production

The Pilatus PC-24 is manufactured at the company's headquarters in , , where operations are highly vertically integrated, encompassing the production of most components including the and wings, followed by final assembly and systems integration. Serial production commenced with the rollout of the first production , constructor's number 101, in 2018, following certification earlier that year; initial output rates stood at 12-16 annually as the assembly line scaled up from validation. By 2020, production had ramped up to approximately 25 units per year, with ambitions to reach 50 annually by 2025 to meet growing demand. Supply chain disruptions during the , including material shortages and logistical delays, constrained output to 20-25 in 2022 and 2023, though rates recovered thereafter. In 2024, Pilatus delivered 51 PC-24s, marking a record for the program amid ongoing supply challenges. A temporary pause in U.S. deliveries occurred in August 2025 due to disputes over new U.S. tariffs on Swiss imports, affecting a significant portion of exports; ferry flights and handovers to American customers resumed in 2025 through year-end. The manufacturing process incorporates advanced composite materials for key structural elements, enhancing the aircraft's lightweight design and performance. As of September 2025, over 300 PC-24s had been delivered cumulatively.
