Flight One Europe is pleased to announce the imminent arrival in Europe of another top class aircraft simulation for Flight Simulator 2004.

The Pilatus PC-12 is a single engine turboprop aircraft that offers versatility like no other in the world. The aircraft offers several different configurations that include: commuter, executive, cargo, and multi-mission surveillance. This versatility along with the PC-12's advanced aerodynamic airframe will entice flight sim pilots to take on the virtual world with one engine!

Another class-leading simulation!

Flight One Software continues its "commitment to authenticity" with it's rendition of the PC-12. The performance of the 1200 hp Pratt & Whitney PT6A-67B turboprop engine, along with its Hartzell 4-blade aluminum prop, will take you to 30,000 feet as you scream along at 310 mph. The available range of 2,239 NM will allow sim pilots to cross continents, with just one stop.

Officially endorsed by Pilatus Business Aircraft in the USA

Tom Aniello, Vice President and CMO, Pilatus Business Aircraft in the USA said:

"We'd been looking for a high-quality Pilatus PC-12 plug-in for Microsoft Flight Simulator for several years, and as soon as we heard Flight One had one available we browsed their website to look at what they'd created. We were simply blown away by what we saw. After downloading the model, we were even more impressed with its extremely accurate rendition of the PC-12's details -- right down to the British-accented voice callouts of the CAWS, and our 2001 Oshkosh demonstrator's paint scheme! The flight model is a lot of fun and it's a great way for Pilatus enthusiasts to get an introduction to a fantastic pilot's aircraft."

The Ultimate SUV

Known around the aviation world as the "Ultimate SUV", the Swiss designed and engineered Pilatus PC-12 is like no other aircraft in the world today. Whether you're flying nine of your friends to a glamorous event, flying executives to a meeting in first-class style, or delivering food aid to a short airfield in Africa, the PC-12's ability to adapt itself to virtually any flight assignment sets it apart from other single engine aircraft.
