Pilatus, the Swiss aircraft manufacturer of the successful PC-12 single engine turboprop, says development of its versatile PC-24 Super Versatile business jet has entered its final phase. The PC-24, sporting a large cargo door like the PC-12, is one of the few business jets capable of operating from short, unimproved runways such as grass and gravel. Pilatus said both EASA and FAA certifications of the PC-24 are expected in December with handover of the first customer aircraft planned before the end of this year.
