Western Aircraft has delivered its 300th new Pilatus PC-12, the first authorized Pilatus sales center to reach that number. The handover took place on 27 October 2026 at the company's head office in Boise, Idaho. The aircraft was a PC-12 PRO, serial number 3107.

Three milestones in one ceremony

The same event marked two more firsts for the company. Western Aircraft also handed over its 30th new PC-24 twinjet, and it celebrated 30 years as an authorized Pilatus sales and service center. According to the manufacturer, no other Pilatus sales center has reached all three.

Western Aircraft added the PC-24 to its range in 2018. Pilatus Group CEO Markus Bucher spoke at the ceremony. He said the partnership is built on trust and a shared drive to give every PC-12 and PC-24 owner the best possible experience and support.

More than sales

Western Aircraft was founded in 1957. The Boise site also provides product support for Pilatus aircraft. Pilatus-trained specialists do the maintenance and repair work there. The company is part of Greenwich AeroGroup.

For buyers, a dealer with this many deliveries has handled a lot of handovers, trade-ins and after-sales questions. That is useful when you plan a PC-12 or PC-24 purchase and want service close to home.
