This does sound like a great machine, I wish I could order one. I just need A) a bigger hangar, and B) $9 million somewhere. In that order, of course.

Good looking plane. Looks like a Phenom 300 with fat tires in person. I think the mockup was the only mockup on the entire (smaller) trade show floor this year, or so it seemed with no Cessna or Falcon glitz. Pilatus called it the "crystal edition" or something like that and it was full of people every time I walked by.

I thought Cessna had a full-scale Cessna Citation Hemisphere cabin at the 2016 NBAA convention?

for a "fleeting appearance" at NBAA in Orlando they took that PC-24 quite a way from Stans to the USA…my guess is that Pilatus has also booked some test airspace and or runways in the US for "lack of room to move" at home in Switzerland…

I didnt get a chance to stop by NBAA. Love the plane but I think they screwed they didnt think the toilet out very well. The PC12 design is great but that slide out design seems to leave the opportunity for issues, slide breaking with someone needed to go, the poop tube having to move back and forth, the toilet getting stuck out and everyone having to step over it to get out.... the things i think about...
