I agree with Mike... everything bold and obvious becomes dated and this scheme has been around a while. You can do cool schemes on the PC-12 that won't work on other aircraft... different is rarely dated. Here's a PC-12 we did last year, I really wanted to see it in Pearl White / Blue... but our client wanted Silver.

I think the issue is there is so much cabin around the side windows, in addition to the shape of the nose. I wonder if there is a way to mask the windows and let some of the cabin stay white above. The heated inlet needs to be blended into a silver trim upfront or it just sticks out. Need Chip Foose...

Hi Jim-
I agree! You beat me to the punch.
I have always liked that Deb paint scheme. However, I agree with others that the PC-12 needs something more than a classy stripe. (My iPad suggested a classy stripper; that might be a thought.)
Regards,
Bob

KA only goes as far as the smallest pilots bladder.  Sorry I’m off to stage right now.. no dog in this fight. (Tell JC about the KA300 though and he might get interested.)

Need to add a relief tube to the copilots side as well? He would only be interested in the 300 if there were airports he couldn’t get into with the CJ3 or King Air 350

Not until I passed the plane did I realize it was not a jet but a Pilatus. I haven’t been following this entire thread so my apologies if this paint job has already been posted. The was the first time I’ve accused a PC12 of looking good  Yeah that's a nice paint job. The silver makes it.
