Pilatus announced on January 26 that it delivered 100 PC-12NGs during 2009, setting a new record for PC-12 deliveries during a single year.
“Achieving 100 deliveries in a single year is a significant milestone for Pilatus and the PC-12 NG production program and reason to celebrate,” said Ignaz Gretener, vice president of general aviation. “This would be true in any year, but the fact we did it last year is simply outstanding.”
The company said that PC-12 production has been rising over the last few years in response to strong demand for the single engine turboprop.
