The Pilatus PC-12 is a pressurized, single-engine turboprop aircraft made by Pilatus Aircraft at Stans, Switzerland, in production since 1991. It was designed as a high-performance utility aircraft with a large aft cargo door as well as the main passenger door. Pilatus announced it in October 1989, the prototype flew on 31 May 1991, and the Swiss type certificate was issued on 30 March 1994. Its main use is corporate transport, but it also serves fractional operators, small regional airlines, air ambulance providers and government agencies. Successive versions include the PC-12NG with a glass cockpit, the PC-12NGX and the PC-12M, marketed in the United States as the Spectre. The 2,000th aircraft was delivered in May 2023.
