Delivered first NGX to customer. I put in some of the key highlights below from article. Quote: The new PC-12 NGX is powered by the first full authority digital engine control (FADEC) in a business turboprop aircraft...All-new seats, larger windows, indirect LED lighting, and a new air distribution system all contribute to a more modern, refined, comfortable passenger experience. The new engine technology also features a propeller low speed mode, reducing the propeller speed from 1,700 to 1,550 revolutions per minute — dramatically reducing cabin noise levels with virtually no reduction in performance. https://www.skiesmag.com/press-releases/pilatus-delivers-first-pc-12-ngx-to-launch-customer/

I'm with you my meat eating friend.
You're gonna be growing veggies before we're done with this whole mess.
P300 is the ship unless the PC12 gets incredibly great....

I'm in agreement. If the new ngx does 290kts that is a deal changer. It's getting closer to the 300knt range and operating cost and ability to get into any strip makes it a cannot beat airplane.
