Overview

The PC-24 is Pilatus's first jet, which the company calls a "Super Versatile Jet". Unusually for a business jet, it is certified to operate from short unpaved runways of grass or gravel, and it has a large cargo door at the back of the cabin.

It carries up to ten passengers and is used both as an executive jet and as a fast air ambulance, including by Australia's Royal Flying Doctor Service.
