Pilatus PC-24: The Swiss Watch of Private Jets

When it was unveiled in 2013, the Pilatus PC-24 made headlines for being the "Swiss watch of private jets". Since its introduction in 2018, the PC-24 has seemingly exceeded all expectations! Much like Pilatus's previous business jets, the Pilatus PC-24 has been wildly successful, selling hundreds of times in only a few years. According to Pilatus, the PC-24 is the most versatile jet the company has ever designed, with it not even reaching one tenth of its potential (as of the time of writing!)

Pilatus PC-12: The Best Corporate Turboprop Yet?…

In recent years, the Pilatus PC-12 has proven to be one of the best and most versatile turboprop aircraft ever built. Whilst principally a corporate aircraft, the PC-12 has also been used in hundreds of different capacities!

15 Smallest Private Jets in the World!

Since the first business jets, some manufacturers have tried to make the largest private jets, where others tried to make the smallest private jets. This got me thinking, which are the smallest? For the purposes of this article, I am only focusing on production private jets. These private jets are either currently in production, or have recently come out of production, with several on the secondary market. So these are the smallest private jets!

Despite this, when you compare the Learjet 45 to other business jets, it is still one of the smallest private jets on the market!

15 Best Private Jets in The World!

Since the introduction of the first private jets, some have been better than others. This begs the question, which are the best private jets on the market today? There are two main ways we can measure how good these private jets are: the amount built or the amount of hours flown by air charter companies each year.

Gulfstream G650 Following on from the popularity of the G600, Gulfstream introduced the lengthened G650. The G650 was meant to capitalize on the longer range and more luxurious market that the G600 didn't fully tap into. The G650 is a re-engineered and lengthened G600. The G650 has new engines which allows the G650 to travel both furthe...
