Pilatus Aircraft delivered the 1,400th PC-12—a 2016 NG model (S/N 1612)—to an undisclosed customer in the U.S. Southwest. The Swiss aircraft manufacturer reached this milestone one year after celebrating delivery of the 1,300th copy of the big turboprop single.

The fleet of 630 PC-12NGs, the latest version of the PC-12, has now surpassed 1 million flight hours since the type entered service in 2008. The worldwide PC-12 fleet has accumulated 5.6 million total flight hours.

“This is an exciting milestone,” said Ignaz Gretener, vice president of Pilatus general aviation. “While much attention has recently been focused on the new PC-24 jet, the PC-12 is still the backbone of our general aviation business. We continue to invest in the PC-12NG and in our global support network.”
