History of the Pilatus PC-21
The Pilatus PC-21 is an advanced, single-engine turboprop trainer aircraft, often referred to by Pilatus as the “Twenty-first Century Trainer.” Designed for versatility, the PC-21 can be used across a wide range of training roles, including basic flight instruction, advanced flight training, mission management, and embedded simulation or emulation exercises.

To support these functions, the aircraft incorporates a powerful, flexible, and cost-effective integrated training system that provides ease of use for novice pilots while still offering a challenging experience for advanced trainees. According to Pilatus, at the time of its launch, the PC-21 delivered “superior aerodynamic performance compared with any other turboprop trainer on the market.”
