Where it can actually go
Runway reality for the Pilatus PC-12 NGX
Published runway figures are planning context only. Suitability depends on the actual aircraft, payload, weather, field elevation and operating conditions, so the proposed airport is checked for the requested trip.

Good to know
Pilatus PC-12 NGX charter questions
How much does it cost to charter a Pilatus PC-12 NGX?
Typical US charter rates run $1,800–$2,500 per flight hour, so a two-hour leg lands around $3,600–$5,000 before positioning. These are market estimates, not quotes — the trip-specific total depends on your dates, positioning and airport fees, and dispatch sends it after current availability is checked.
How many passengers does the Pilatus PC-12 NGX carry?
8 in the normal charter layout and up to 9 in a high-density configuration. Baggage is the usual real constraint: 40 cubic feet, roughly 10 large cases with soft bags on top.
How far can the Pilatus PC-12 NGX fly?
1,803 nautical miles (2,075 statute miles) at a 290 kt cruise. Real range drops with headwind, full seats and hot high airports, so we plan the fuel stop rather than discover it.
Which airports can the Pilatus PC-12 NGX use?
As a turboprop it typically needs about 3,500 ft of runway at mid weights. Runway suitability depends on the actual aircraft, payload, weather and field conditions, so dispatch checks the proposed airport for the requested date.
