The Pilatus PC12 is a 9 passenger-seat pressured aircraft with a single turbine engine. Its performance is similar to light jet aircraft but it has a lower operating cost and a lower environmental foot print. It is one of the most popular turbine-powered business aircraft on the market today and over 1500 aircraft have been produced. In operation around the world, the PC-12 can be found operating in a number of roles including executive transport, cargo operations, air ambulance/Medevac, airline-commuter and special mission applications.
Whether it is the large cabin, single pilot operations, long range, low operating costs, high speed, short-field capability, or precision Swiss engineering and construction, customers find the perfect balance of features to serve their needs.
We also own and operate nineteen Multi Engine Piston (MEP) aircraft, these aircraft are multi-role, flying passengers, light freight, aerial survey, aero medical and airline AOG flights. Following the UK leaving the EU on 01 January 2021, Ravenair is also now EASA TCO “Third Country Operator“ authorised.
Hire and Leasing
The PC12 and TBM aircraft are available for PART NCO Dry Hire/Lease under a Hire Agreement. Under this use the aircraft are not available for Charter. (Commercial Air Transport or Public Transport). For more information on Dry Hire/Leasing arrangements please get in touch via info@ravenair.co.uk or call us quoting PC12.
Advantages
Our piston fleet aircraft do not require the use of a licensed airfield for flight operations. The PC12 aircraft has excellent short field performance. These attributes allow the use of the many smaller local airfields which are not served by charter and scheduled flights and which may not be accessible by larger business type aircraft.
These regional airfields are often much closer to your final destination and therefore offer a more direct routing, avoiding transfers at congested major airports, followed by a tiresome lengthy road journey.
Chartering or hiring an aircraft offers the ultimate in flexible timetabling whilst at the same time providing you and your associates with a secure, private, travelling and working environment. From fast track check-in at our Business Aviation Centre or chosen service provider, through to expedited arrival at your destination.
