Key Takeaways:

  • PlaneSense CEO George Antoniadis attended the significant fuselage-wing mating of the first production Pilatus PC-24, for which PlaneSense is the launch customer.
  • The PC-24, a "Super Versatile Jet" known for its capabilities on short/unimproved runways and a large cargo door, is expected to be delivered to PlaneSense later this year after FAA and EASA certifications.
  • PlaneSense anticipates the PC-24's large cabin and versatile performance will significantly enhance their fractional ownership services, with this aircraft being the first of six for their fleet.

George Antoniadis wouldn’t have missed this “marriage” for anything in the world. The President and CEO of PlaneSense has the distinction of being the owner of the first Pilatus PC-24 (https://www.pilatus-aircraft.com/) business jet, and so he made the journey to the manufacturer’s head office in Stans, Switzerland, to watch firsthand as his plane received its wings.
