PC-12 Fleet Exceeds 1 Million Hour Milestone

Pilatus Touts Accomplishment, Continues To Refine Aircraft's Design

The worldwide Pilatus PC-12 fleet passed a significant milestone when it logged its one-millionth flight hour in operation. More than 500 owner-pilots, corporations, regional airlines, air ambulance operators, government agencies, fractional operators, and charter companies around the world logged these hours by relying on their PC-12s every day.

“A million hours of real world experience is a tremendous asset to Pilatus and our PC-12 owners,” says Piotr Wolak, Vice President of Customer Service. “We work very hard to turn the vast experience of PC-12 owners into usable information and tangible product improvements which ultimately lower the cost of operation. This ever growing body of knowledge has helped us refine the PC-12’s design and continuously improve service to our customers.”

PC-12 sales are the ultimate judge of how well Pilatus learns from experience, and the PC-12 has been the top selling turbine-powered aircraft in general aviation for the past two years in a row. Experience continues to build, and Pilatus aims to keep the PC-12 in its place as the pinnacle single engine turboprop.
