The Swiss Army Knife of airplanes. Amazing plane!
Good morning, you just have to love the Swiss people and their craftsmanship. I have had the privilege of flying in this aircraft, (right seat). Amazing aircraft. Thanks for a great video. Take care.
It’s my #1 pick over any other aircraft should I become fortunate enough.
PC-12 'Is/was' his plane of a lifetime.
(they forgot to disclose the PC24 coming out a few months later...) :)
Gotta love printer ink money
I know Im kinda off topic but does anybody know of a good site to watch new movies online?
@Kayden Aaron I use Flixportal. You can find it by googling :)
Met this guy when he came Execujet Essendon... His crew were amazing
I refuel these planes in the finnish air force, they're stunning planes.
As a retired Air Traffic Controller, I am totally n love with this aircraft and would love to be an owner. Dream.
You need a Kitfox!!
I love you Pilatus PC12.
All these good people are living my dream life while am stuck out of dream 😁😁. God bless them and keep them safe
Imagine if Pilatus mandated that he could only use Pilatus-branded Jet-A, which cost 2x the rest of the market. I bet it’d feel very familiar to him and he’d love that.
lol yeah
Merlinspop hahahahaha was looking for a comment like tgis
If I would ever get some money, I'd buy a Pilatus.........
They should do hybrid version seen the flying doctor aircraft like that modle in south Australia they must be very reliable.
A blessed man with an amazing life.
Great video Dion and awesome aircraft!
I would have done the exact same choice than you, probably for the exact same reasons as well. Good job.
Lovely aircraft. If I ever get the money I will get type-rated on one of these!
Luar biasa Pilatus 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Lindo avião, parabéns!
I love this aircraft to, but love only is not enough, couple millions of dollars that what I need to get it...
It costs about $ 5 million, sorry :D
Unless of course you already have $ 3 million :D :D
you just have to become HP CEO, and you will easily afford one
Beautiful aircraft!!
Sweet whip!
BOA TARDE! DE FATO SÓ TENHO BOAS NOTÍCIAS A RESPEITO DESSA AERONAVE. PARABÉNS
meu pai amado, que avião LINDO!
A single pilot, single engine with the performance of a twin. Probably can land on a 3000 foot runway. Cruise at 220? I wish had the money. I got the Commercial Multi Engine Instrument but the money, not so much.
Reckon it goes a bit quicker with the five blade prop
I've seen a Flying Doctor pilot put one of these into 600 metres of dirt. Not much to come and go on, but within the capability of the aircraft.
Mike Parker said most of us. Feel you bud...
They regularly operate out of San Carlos California - 2600' runway - at gross weight
Excelente avião !
42-43,000 feet? Isn't that 12-13,000 feet higher than the service ceiling? I know it recently got an upgrade, but I can't find any specs that say it goes into the 40s.
I think the 42-43,000 feet is when he’s in the back of one of HP’s jets. :) The PC-12 is his own for flying the family it sounds like.
@@cavulife plausible, but clarification is needed in a video like this.

I thought such a rich person would go with a jet, even a smaller one.
The PC-12 has a better payload than a lot of smaller jets. Plus, it’s also safer with a low stall speed
Anyone here because of UA-cam ?
