Pilatus Known for reliability, versatility, value<\/strong><\/h5>\n

In 1991, the Pilatus PC-12 powered by the PT6A-67B engine took to the skies for the first time. Today, more than 1,700 of the PC-12 single-engine turboprop business aircraft and subsequent enhancements of that aircraft have proven their versatility and value. Known for its quality, reliability, low operating costs, and flexibility. The PC-12 NGX, for example, has been described in a past European Business Air News<\/em> article as providing \u201cthe benefit of a luxury jet with the capabilities of a true workhorse.\u201d<\/p>\n

Over the next three decades, this and other aircraft types by Swiss-based Pilatus have become highly valued, \u201cgo-to\u201d aircraft for commercial airline service, cargo transport, crop dusting, air ambulance service, military use and, of course, corporate, and private aviation. Not surprisingly, Pilatus posted record sales in fiscal year 2021 \u2013 up 19 percent versus the previous year \u2013 as it set a new production record with 152 aircraft delivered.<\/p>\n

When reporting those results, Pilatus CEO Markus Bucher, remarked that \u201cdemand for our products and services has rarely been so high.\u201d So, as more customers acquire either new or used Pilatus aircraft for their business and private aviation needs, Thrust Tech Accessories (TTA), an FAA 145 and EASA Certified Repair Station provider of MRO services located in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., has enhanced its abilities to serve them.<\/p>\n
