Western Aircraft celebrates 300th PC-12 delivery

Western Aircraft, part of Greenwich AeroGroup, marks three significant milestones in 2026 as part of its long-standing partnership with Pilatus: the delivery of the company’s 300th PC-12 - a PC-12 PRO, the delivery of the 30th new PC-24, and its 30th anniversary as an Authorized Pilatus Sales & Service Center.

The three special milestones were jointly acknowledged in a ceremony held at Western Aircraft’s head office in Boise, Idaho, USA. Since the partnership began in 1996, Western Aircraft has become one of the most successful and experienced Authorized Pilatus Sales Centers, and the first to achieve these milestones.

With the delivery of the 300th new PC-12, serial number 3107, Western Aircraft underscores the partnership’s successful growth over three decades. The simultaneous delivery of the 30th PC-24 also marks another important achievement for the company. The world’s first Super Versatile Jet was added to Western Aircraft’s product lineup in 2018 and has since proved a very popular option among customers in the company’s sales territory.

Speaking at the celebration in Boise, Pilatus Group CEO Markus Bucher said, “Over the past 30 years, we've built a partnership founded on trust and shared values - a passion for aviation, a commitment to excellence, and a shared drive to provide every PC-12 and PC-24 customer with the best possible experience and support. On behalf of everyone at Pilatus, congratulations to the entire Western Aircraft team on these remarkable milestones.”

“The delivery of the 300th new PC-12, the delivery of our 30th new PC-24 and our 30th anniversary as an Authorized Pilatus Sales & Service Center are extraordinary achievements of which we are very proud,” added Phil Winters, Vice President Aircraft Sales at Western Aircraft. “We could not have achieved these milestones without our customers’ trust, our dedicated and caring employees, and our long-standing partnership with Pilatus.”

Founded in 1957 Western Aircraft Inc has served as an Authorized Pilatus Sales & Service Center since 1996. In addition to sales, it also provides comprehensive product support over the entire Pilatus aircraft lifecycle.
