STANS, Switzerland - The third PC-24 prototype, which also represents the series standard, will be unveiled to the general public at this year's European Business Aviation Exhibition (EBACE) in Geneva, from May 22-24, 2017. At the Pilatus headquarters, PC-24 series production is underway and accelerating to ensure on-time delivery of the first customer aircraft after certification.
Following the P03's maiden flight on March 6, the PC-24 test fleet is now complete. The three prototypes have accumulated a total of 950 flights and 1525 hours in the air to date. Further certification flights are currently in progress. Certification of the Super Versatile Jet is planned for the fourth quarter of 2017 and initial customer deliveries are schedule immediately thereafter.
Meanwhile, work has already started in earnest on the first aircraft for delivery to customers. The production status of these first few PC-24s is already well advanced: number one has already received its final livery.
In 2014, Pilatus sold 84 PC-24s in the space of just 36 hours. The order book is currently closed, but is due to re-open in 2018 after receipt of the first positive reports from PC-24 operators. Final PC-24 performance data will be published after certification.
