The first three years' production of the Pilatus PC-24 business jet was sold out during the two opening days of the European Business Aviation Conference and Exhibition in Geneva, Switzerland. All 84 production line positions scheduled between the start of deliveries in 2017 and the end of 2019 were taken up by customers and sales agents on May 19 and 20. "Customers who opted for the PC-24 include both prestigious fleet operators and individuals of international stature," said Pilatus Chairman Oscar J Schwenk. "[This is] an incredible vote of confidence in Pilatus and our new business jet." Roll-out of the prototype PC-24 at the company's Buochs-Stans headquarters is planned for August 1, when the Swiss manufacturer will also celebrate the 75th anniversary of its foundation.
