Inside the Pilatus PC-24, The SUV of the Skies
Known as the Super Versatile Jet, the Pilatus PC 24 is in a category of its own. Manufactured in Switzerland, it is the only aircraft that combines the flexibility of a turboprop with the cabin size of a mid-size jet and the performance of a light jet. Designed to land almost anywhere and provide comfort at every stage, the PC 24 has quickly become one of the most sought-after aircraft in Europe and beyond. Here is what makes it so unique, and why clients love flying on it.
1. A Jet Designed for All Terrains
The PC 24 is the only business jet certified to operate on unpaved runways. This includes grass, gravel, snow, and dirt strips, giving passengers access to more than twice as many airports as traditional jets in its class. It was built to land where others cannot, making it the preferred option for passengers flying to remote destinations, private resorts, or hard-to-reach mountain areas.
Whether it is a short grass runway in Corsica or an alpine airfield near Courchevel, the PC 24 delivers where other jets simply cannot go.
2. A Spacious Cabin You Do Not Expect in This Class
Despite its compact size, the PC 24 offers a surprisingly large and well-appointed cabin. It comfortably seats up to eight passengers in club or executive layouts, with a flat floor and generous headroom. The interior is custom-designed by Pilatus with high-end finishes, quiet acoustics, and large windows for natural light.
Passengers enjoy:
An enclosed lavatory
Full in-flight connectivity
Adjustable leather seating
A baggage compartment accessible in flight
The cabin feels closer to a mid-size jet than a light jet, which is part of what makes it so attractive to frequent travelers and private families alike.
3. Performance Meets Practicality
The PC 24’s speed and range are impressive for a jet of its size. It can cruise at 815 kilometers per hour and reach up to 3,700 kilometers nonstop. That means it can connect cities like Geneva to Larnaca, London to Marrakech, or Zurich to Reykjavik with ease.
It only needs 893 meters of runway to land, which opens up airports that would otherwise be inaccessible for most jets. Thanks to its large cargo door, the PC 24 is just as useful for carrying golf bags or equipment as it is for high-end passenger missions.
4. Who Is the PC 24 Perfect For?
The PC 24 is often chosen by:
Entrepreneurs traveling to locations with limited infrastructure
Skiers and mountain lovers heading to high-altitude airports
VIPs and families wanting comfort with practicality
Medical or government teams operating in remote areas
In short, the PC 24 is ideal for those who value Swiss engineering, flexibility, and comfort, especially when flying to airports where other jets cannot land.
