Pilatus PC-24 I was reviewing the limitations section of the Pilatus PC-24 flight manual before my evaluation flight for this pilot report. Maximum ramp weight: 18,400 pounds. Maximum takeoff weight: 18,300 pounds. Useful load: 6,880 pounds. Maximum pothole depth 1.37 inches (35 mm) with a maximum diameter of 39 inches, and maximum grass height three inches. Potholes, grass height? When was the last time you had to consider the size of potholes or grass height on runways when flying a jet? Unless you are flying a PC-24, it probably never crossed your mind. I was at Boise Air Terminal with Pilatus v-p Tom Aniello, Phil Winters, v-p of Western Aircraft, and Ashley Fredricks, Western’s chief pilot. Western Aircraft, the largest PC-12 and PC-24 dealer, had just received its seventh PC-24, N194PJ, serial number 194, two weeks earlier. Previous aircraft sold by Western have been delivered throughout its sales region, including Alaska where the PC-24 enjoys being in its element, flying on and off unimproved airports in challenging conditions.
