Pilatus is proud to announce the start of PC-12 NG customer deliveries.
At the delivery ceremony in Broomfield, Colorado, this important
milestone was celebrated by Pilatus employees and the exclusive PC-12
Sales and Service Center for the northwestern United States, Western
Aircraft of Boise, Idaho.

During the 2006 National Business Aircraft Association convention,
Pilatus announced that they would launch a completely revised version of
the legendary PC-12 aircraft. The PC-12 NG features a number of
significant improvements over its predecessor, including a fully
integrated Honeywell Primus Apex avionics system, a completely revised
cockpit designed by BMW Group DesignworksUSA, and a more powerful
Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A engine.

Through these revisions the PC-12 continues its leadership as the
world’s best selling business turboprop. In March of this year the PC-12
NG received both EASA and FAA certifications. Speaking at the delivery
ceremony, Mr. Thomas Hunziker, President and CEO of Pilatus Business
Aircraft, Ltd. stated: “This important day marks the beginning of a new
chapter in the PC-12 success story. Pilatus works hard to deliver best in
class capability and we have no doubt the PC-12 NG will continue this
legacy.”
