Learning to fly a PC-12
I’m a pilot. I really, really love flying.
I started out in gliders in the mid 1980’s, and I’ve been flying them ever since. There are many stories in there, but this isn’t about them.
I bought a Cirrus SR22 GTS Turbo in 2009, and had a ball gaining a PPL(A) and flying that aircraft too. But this isn’t about that aircraft either.
Rather, its about an aircraft that has been pretty much #1 on my bucket list of ‘planes I would love to own one day’, for many years now.
The Pilatus PC-12.
