Australia love Pilatus, their military operated the PC-9 for decades, now they have the PC-21. Their flying doctor ops used to fly their PC-12, now their PC-24. Good stuff all around.
I liked the King Air B-350. I am originally from Switzerland. Wow! A SWISS made light jet! Little expensive (better check my petty cash)! Just the fact that this is SWISS made has sold me on this PC-24, it is just a matter of financing at the moment. I am honestly impressed!
I am from Australia and I have seen this little airplane flying overhead several times as an RFDS aircraft. Thank you for the extremely informative video!
@@CoinDoctor1 PC-21s are military trainers. The RFDS fleet also has plenty of PC-12s that could not be mistaken for the PC-24. Just go to the Pilatus web site. The RFDS were key partners in the design of the PC-24. www.pilatus-aircraft.com/en
"Competitors even claim that it is not really a business jet." For any other manufacturer that would be disrespectful, for Pilatus that's a compliment lol.
PC24 can land at airports where only turbo prop can go. Existing traditional biz jet makers will be upset how a new company with altogther new jet gains so much appreciation. It's a small SUV, but typical American jet makers don't think about buyers beyond US & that's where Pilatus PC24 wins.
what is a 'business' jet? it's obviously a jet aircraft that allows it's owner to conduct 'business'. In the case of the RFDS (Royal Flying Doctor Service) in Australia ... they are in the 'business' of saving peoples lives!! If that's not a 'business' .. I don't know what is.🙄
David Huett pretty much, other companies arbitrary definition of business jets is just that they need to be luxurious and cater to business execs and wealthy people. They can’t think of a small jet being capable of doing more than one thing 😂.
A highly detailed, objective and most appreciated review. I don't think it's an advertisement as challenges are presented and Pilatus' ability to overcome them explained. Scott take a detailed look at what the PC12 has achieved in a relatively short period of time. Based on that reputation the company sold out the initial production run of the PC24 in an unprecedented 36 hours!
Good thing he generously mentioned the PC-12, because the PC-24 offers the same capacities when it comes to passengers and range. The main difference is the speed and... the price of course!
That is a beautiful aircraft. Form generally has to follow function, hence why most common civilian aircraft are boring looking. This one nails both, form, AND function.
The PC24 (and PC12) are my offices... the 24 is an amazing aircraft to fly and work in. My dad's a retired commercial pilot, and I know he'll enjoy watching this review. Thank you :)
I've watched pretty much every single video of yours so far and they're brilliant mate, your very factual yet always done with a bit of humour videos are always really enjoyable. You should be proud of your channel mate, fantastic job!!
I love this review. It's interesting, there are not only positive things mentioned but also challenges and disadvantages of certain systems. Oh and the Top Gear reference. Total thumbs up for that!
That was fascinating - thanks for posting. That really is a unique small jet, not just a business jet. Looks like it will find a niche in a similar way to the BAe 146.
Great video about a unique plane. You where a little surprised by the website for the cabin controls, but it is actually the technical superior option. It works on any phone, including business phones which are locked down for security reasons. And even if you assume everyone to have a private smartphone on hands as well, they might lack mobile internet access in a plane.
Excellent video. Watched from start to finish. One thing that you did not mention was the nacelle design of the engines that allowed passive thrust vectoring at high power settings. It also contributes to the short field takeoff capabilities of the aircraft.
Hi Sky, thanks for this. I just realise that we have many similarities. I like Gundams, BMW 7, Top Gear, S-Classes (have 2 old ones), and planes. Thanks for the channel. The world is a better place with you. Happy flights, and soft landings to you.
Impressive piece of equipment. Low landing speed and no need for pavement is a great feature even if it is not normally needed. And QPM low engine idle acting as APU is brilliant. I have a hunch this thing has some CJ and phenom engs working overtime. Haha.
Checkout XTI Trifan 600. It's the future of light jets. It's even *more* versatile than this. And the fuel cost of flying is only $1/mile. It will make this and all other light jets obsolete. It's not yet built, but in 4 years I believe it will take over the short and medium ranged flights sky.
Thx for a extremely informative video ! I have never been exposed to any info in this type aircraft & yet I feel you have answered any possible question I could have come up with ; more than adequately ! Congrats to the company producing this aircraft , if I had designed it after becoming an efficiency expert at my old company , I do not think I could have come up with more than a few improvements after a thorough vetting of all systems ! Quite an impressive feat & may the winds fill your sails ................ sales ?
There are actually some highways in the outback that double as emergency RFDS landing strips. Local police will block the road where the aircraft needs to land, and trucks are fitted with UHF so that they know when a landing is to take place.
It's called Pee-lah-tus because as soon as you step your feet on the entrance ladder you see the Lavatory. It is not hidden by a curtain. This gives a comforting feeling to boarding passengers.
Damn Sky this is one fine review. Love the unbias nature of the facts history and humor👌 I am wowed with your videos and they keep getting better and better. Top of the platform you are💯 Thank you very much Sky, as i wish fast flights and soft landings to you too. ❤
Good vid. This is definitely a specialized plane. The bathroom design would put off a lot of light business jet crowd I think. But if you want to land on an unimproved landing strip you don't have many choices.
Australia love Pilatus, their military operated the PC-9 for decades, now they have the PC-21. Their flying doctor ops used to fly their PC-12, now their PC-24. Good stuff all around.
I don’t know nothing about airplanes but this guy makes me listen to everything he says haha. Love his narration
Pilatus should buy this video from you to promote the machine. Your detailed insight and fair observations are second to none.
I liked the King Air B-350. I am originally from Switzerland. Wow! A SWISS made light jet! Little expensive (better check my petty cash)! Just the fact that this is SWISS made has sold me on this PC-24, it is just a matter of financing at the moment. I am honestly impressed!
I was impressed with the whole layout and then you threw in Top Gear. Perfect.

"Competitors even claim that it is not really a business jet." For any other manufacturer that would be disrespectful, for Pilatus that's a compliment lol.
It's a PC12J.
It is certainly the jet for the business of moving product from remote grass/gravel strips for long distance delivery. Just look at that cargo door.

The best video about one of the most celebrated new aircraft on the market today. Thank You!
Thank you Georg...
This narrator is absolutely brilliant. He nailed the review of this new, interesting jet.
agreed, the humor interjects are wonderful
He talks funny.
I feel like buying the damn thing... can't afford it though 😃
The best technical aviation UA-cam channel!! Hands down!
21:27 I love the fact that there are dirt bikes in the back. If I owned this I would definitely put dirt bikes in the back.
You can land at the track....
One of the most detailed videos. Good!
Agreed
Awesome documentary of the PC24! I think Pilatus will be very proud when they view your film. I hope it opens many new cabin doors for you!

Sky is the leader with programs like these!
Very good video! as the aircraft itself. Complete and balanced.
This was the most comprehensive walkthrough of the PC24, Thanx ! I really enjoyed that !
That's a nicely written and illustrated script! A corporate film as neatly done as the plane it features. Enjoyed it! Thanks.

The company i work for just got their 6th pc24. Its a beautiful jet!
Definitely, a way to "ponder the secrets of the universe". Thanks.
“ Like a pregnant fish” 😁😁 is a funny analogy .
As always Sky, you are the best!
Wow Sky, you really are moving up! Your videos are top notch, you deserve it.
Just found this channel today. Subscribed! I love it. Watched like 5 videos already LoL
This is my idea of the best private versatile jet to charter. It's landing requirements are not demanding. Love it! Well done!
I've watched pretty much every single video of yours so far and they're brilliant mate, your very factual yet always done with a bit of humour videos are always really enjoyable. You should be proud of your channel mate, fantastic job!!
Amazing video, honestly think is one of the channel's best! Almost couldn't see that it was 28 minutes long. Amazing man, really love your channel!
What a marvelous jet. Versatile indeed! Great video, not only entertaining but educational at the same time. Thank you for your video upload!
Outstanding. I know it took weeks or months to produce this. You have a new subscriber.
Nailed it again sky! Well done.
I love this review. It's interesting, there are not only positive things mentioned but also challenges and disadvantages of certain systems.
Oh and the Top Gear reference. Total thumbs up for that!
👌Congratulations for your great documentation of the Pilatus Aircraft's 🛩from my Home country Switzerland 💖🇨🇭
😎Keep going on with your great work 👍
Very well engineered ! Excellent narrator! No doubt about Pilatus reliability !
That was fascinating - thanks for posting. That really is a unique small jet, not just a business jet. Looks like it will find a niche in a similar way to the BAe 146.
Thank you for this! What a great job you did. I feel like I understand this aircraft now. Congratulations on the views. Please keep making videos!
Thanks for doing this one. This is the jet I want to get.

It works on any phone, including business phones which are locked down for security reasons. And even if you assume everyone to have a private smartphone on hands as well, they might lack mobile internet access in a plane.
The wing reminds me a little of the Vickers VC-10 in terms of short field performance and speed. Bravo Pilatus and excellent video, Sky.

This is the best Jet ever in my opinion !! The PC12 is the best turboprop !! Need I say more ??
Love your videos. Keep them coming.
aWESome video man! Love your in depth knowledge for sure
I would not expect anything less than this from the Swiss, one only has to look to the knife to see where this was headed. Bravo!
....
Oh!....the Joseph Rodgers Twin blade Pocket knife?....naw!!!!..dn'tthink so Buddy...!
Versatility of PC24 is fantastic & kudos to team Pilatus for making such unique aircraft.
An outstanding high quality video (as usual). Well done!
Thank you for a great review of an amazing super jet. 👍🏽

Terrific job of describing every pro and con of this amazing aircraft.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video tour of this very beautiful jet. Thanks for making this. Top notch.
You are an excellent writer and producer. I love these films.
Excellent job! Wish I had one !!
That QPM is amazing. Great content! Keep it up!
Great detailed video of the finest private jet manufactured.
Nice video.
Thank you SkyShip.
Bravo, fantástico tu trabajo, profunda investigación y presentación. Felicitaciones.
this was a fantastic little video about my favorite light jet, thanks!

Sky! It's great to actually see you! Don't be a stranger!
The climb rate of the PC24 is quite impressive.
Very good video with an amazing story line that covers all the necessary angles! It's inspiring!
Oh I love aircraft. This is a beautiful jet aircraft. Shiney and new. Always amazed at the paint work. Lovely. I can dream can't I.
as a top gear fan the fact that you threw a top gear refrence in the video you won my heart
Good job! 👍🏻 It truly is the most complete and interesting review of an airplane I have seen so far. Congrats and thanks. 👌🏻
Always good reporting. Thanks
You simply destroyed my dream plane calling it "a suv" :D
There are actually some highways in the outback that double as emergency RFDS landing strips. Local police will block the road where the aircraft needs to land, and trucks are fitted with UHF so that they know when a landing is to take place.

Excellent Video. Thanks
Thank you so much for your great videos. They are easy to follow and I always enjoy the content.

Pilates PC-24. The LandCruiser for the sky.
As a pilot, a lover of all things Pilatus and a LandCruiser owner, I love your comment.
That’s the pc-6
Landcruiser is definitely not a jet, at best it would be a turboprop.
@@Martian74 more like lexus Rx 450h
I’d probably compare it to a G-Wagon :)
One very smart aircraft - I look forward to my first trip
Great video, I love all the Pilatus. Some day!
Some day what Claudio...? We're always looking for new doctors at RFDS. Look up our website!
The best bit is in the toilet "after completing this wonderful event"
Great video presentation. Well done.
Good vid. This is definitely a specialized plane. The bathroom design would put off a lot of light business jet crowd I think. But if you want to land on an unimproved landing strip you don't have many choices.
Good vid Sky.
Pilatus can add this to their promotional gallery!
Here's cheers to the RFDS!
Very interesting video, as a lover of aircraft I had to subscribe!
