Pilatus PC-12 Pro: A Revolution In Business Aviation
Lines from a model of excellence for business aviation:
Launched in 1994, the Pilatus PC-12 has become a key player in business aviation thanks to its performance, versatility and efficiency.
Its qualities have won over commercial airlines as well as medical and government services, making the PC-12 an undisputed commercial success, with over 2,100 aircraft delivered to date.
Overcoming any initial fears associated with the use of a single-engine, turbine-powered aircraft, Pilatus has never ceased to develop its flagship model, advancing technology and comfort with each evolution to constantly improve the PC-12’s performance and safety.
After the PC-12 NG in 2008, and the PC-12 NGX in 2019, Pilatus sets a new milestone in 2025 with the introduction of the PC-12 Pro, which goes even further in terms of innovation and sophistication.
With a list price of $6.8 million, Pilatus has pulled off a masterstroke by offering a single-engine piston aircraft equipped with technology equivalent to the very latest high-performance business jets.
JetFlo is pleased to present the new features of the PC-12 Pro.
Next-Generation avionics : Garmin G3000 PRIME and safety:
The PC-12 Pro features an Advanced Cockpit Environment (ACE) based on the Garmin G3000 PRIME.
It features :
- Three 14” high-definition touch screens for a user-friendly interface and intuitive flight management.
- High-performance connectivity, enabling pilots to receive real-time weather data and optimize their flights.
- A revolutionary autopilot system for autonomous landing in the event of problems (690 kg) – a first for a single-engine turboprop.
All these features make the PC-12 Pro even more comfortable to fly, reducing the workload on pilots who are familiar with business flights.
Performance and Versatility: A Reinvented Turboprop:
In keeping with its legacy, the PC-12 Pro is a very flexible aircraft. It is equally capable of managing intercontinental flights and reaching rural areas because it takes off and landings with ease on small, rough airstrips.
A few figures on the PC-12 Pro:
- Maximum cruising speed: 537 km/h, an impressive performance compared with previous models.
- Increased range: up to 6170 km (3339 nautical miles), non-stop long-distance flights.
- Minimum runway length for take-off: 758 metres, extraordinary flexibility for operators.
- Maximum take-off weight: 4,740 kg, payload 45 kg higher than the NGX.
Whether you need to do business on short notice, provide emergency medical transport or fly for the government, the PC-12 Pro’s combination of speed, efficiency and reliability makes it just what you’ve been waiting for.
An Enhanced Passenger Experience: Unmatched Luxury and Comfort:
- Totally rethought and inspired by the interior design of the Pilatus PC-24, the interior of the PC-12 Pro is more spacious and luxurious than ever:
- Ergonomic, adjustable seats for optimum comfort, even on very long journeys.
- Oversized windows by 10%, increasing the amount of natural light entering and enlarging the panoramic view.
- Materials chosen for their reliability and durability, but which are nonetheless top-of-the-range.
- Active noise reduction system, so that inside, it’s so quiet you can work or rest.
With this new image of aerial luxury, Pilatus puts the PC-12 Pro where it belongs, at the top of the private jet hierarchy, while retaining the economic and operational advantages of a turboprop.
Environmental Commitment: Greener Aviation :
Pilatus doesn’t just improve the performance of its aircraft; the Swiss manufacturer also develops more eco-responsible solutions that align perfectly with JetFlo’s values.
For example, the PC-12 Pro incorporates cutting-edge technologies designed to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, while also being compatible with alternative aviation fuels (SAF). All of this helps to cut greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80%, in full compliance with the new environmental standards for business aviation.
Conclusion: The PC-12 Pro, A New Standard for Business Aviation:
With the PC-12 Pro, Pilatus offers much more than a simple upgrade: this model redefines the single-engine turboprop category, as it is part of a triad of performance, technological innovation, enhanced safety, superior comfort and ecological responsibility.
This aircraft model is designed for companies, private or public operators, and governments looking for an efficient, versatile, first-choice aeronautical solution. With its delicate design, latest-generation avionics and optimized performance, it is destined to become a benchmark of excellence.
The PC-12 Pro has been available since March 14, 2025, and deliveries of the first models will begin very soon. Reserve your place now and enter a new era of business aviation!
