I'm no yogi, and it wasn't an issue at all.

This jet looks awesome! If you can’t get in the left seat you need to ride in the back.

I wish I took a better picture for size comparison though. The middle picture is me right seat in the -24 (fiancé left seat). Third picture is me in a -12. Kyle, We must have crossed paths. I agree, that is one outstanding jet. I believe Pilatus has found another nitch market. I had my doubts at first thinking it was another Phenom or CJ but I think there are enough differences to separate it from the other jets.

Here is some PC24 trivia. What are the small notches on the trailing edge of the control surfaces on the PC24 wing? I didn't get a great picture but they are about 1mm wide, and 2" deep. I want to say there are about 4-5 of them spaced a few feet apart. I've never seen them on an airplane. Attachment: Photo Feb 10, 7 34 37 AM (1).jpg Attachment: Photo Feb 08, 1 23 31 PM (1).jpg
