Pilatus is delighted to announce a record-breaking year for PC-12 deliveries. The company delivered 100 PC-12 NGs in 2009 worldwide, surpassing delivery totals for any production year since the PC-12 program began.“Achieving 100 deliveries in a single year is a significant milestone for Pilatus and the PC-12 NG production program and reason to celebrate,†said Ignaz Gretener, Vice President General Aviation at Pilatus Aircraft, Ltd. “This would be true in any year, but the fact we did it last year is simply outstanding.â€The PC-12 has consistently been one of the top selling models of turbinepowered aircraft, and Pilatus has conservatively increased production over the years, delivering 90, 92, and 97 of the type in 2006, 2007, and 2008, respectively. The company’s steady approach has allowed it to carefully grow yet stay appropriately lean.
The single-turbine powered PC-12 NG is widely recognized as a powerful yet responsible business and special mission aircraft. Its low acquisition and operating costs and large pressurized cabin offer unique capabilities that operators worldwide are using every day to travel quickly and efficiently in the new economy.
