Pilatus Private Jet Charter
Pilatus Aircraft · Stans, Switzerland · Founded 1939 · 3 aircraft chartered · UPDATED JUNE 2026
PC-12 and PC-24 — Swiss-engineered access to runways no jet can use.
Pilatus is Switzerland's only business-jet manufacturer. The PC-12 NGX single-engine turboprop and PC-24 twin-jet share one obsession: access — both can operate from short, unpaved or high-altitude strips that close every other business jet out.
WHY PILATUS AIRCRAFT
Where the brand wins
Choose Pilatus when the airport is the constraint: Caribbean islands, alpine fields, mining camps, gravel strips. Cabin comfort and reliability are world-class; the operating envelope simply has no rival.

FAQ
Pilatus Aircraft charter — frequently asked
- Can the PC-24 land at runways my Citation cannot?
- Yes. The PC-24 takes off in under 900 metres and is certified for gravel, grass and dirt strips. There are 21,000+ airports worldwide it can use vs roughly 11,000 for a Citation XLS+.
- Is the PC-12 a jet?
- It is a single-engine turboprop, not a jet — but it cruises at 290 knots, climbs to FL300 and feels indistinguishable from a light jet in the cabin. Hourly rates are 35–45% lower than an equivalent light jet.
