Who This Page Is For

Owners, operators, corporate flight departments, charter providers (where permitted), medevac organizations, and backcountry/utility operators flying:

• PC-12 (all variants)
• PC-24
• Legacy Pilatus piston and turboprop platforms

Whether your mission is regional business travel, remote access, cargo, or medical transport, we structure coverage that reflects how and where you fly.

Typical Uses We See

Pilatus aircraft are uniquely adaptable. Common missions we insure include:

• Corporate and executive travel
• Backcountry and unimproved-strip operations
• Part 91 and select Part 135 charter operations
• Medevac/air ambulance missions
• Cargo and special-use transport
• High-altitude, short-field, or remote-environment flying

Key Factors That Influence Your Quote

• Pilot experience: total time, turbine time, and PC-12/PC-24 time; recent experience and IFR proficiency are heavily weighted.
• Training: simulator-based initial and recurrent training (e.g., FlightSafety, CAE) is strongly preferred and often required.
• Operations: backcountry use, unimproved runways, medevac, cargo, or international flying can influence underwriting conditions.
• Maintenance program: CAMP/Trend monitoring, manufacturer programs, and documented inspections improve risk profile.
• Hull value: significant variation across PC-12 and PC-24 models means underwriters assess avionics, modifications, and engine time carefully.
• Loss history: prior aircraft or pilot claims, with emphasis on corrective training or safety management practices.

Common Coverages for Pilatus Aircraft

• High-limit liability: sized to passenger loads, corporate requirements, and mission profile (including medevac exposures where eligible).
• Agreed value hull: prevents depreciation disputes; deductibles scale with hull value.
• Crew coverage: PIC/SIC liability and medical options where available.
• Extra expense / loss of use: helps offset downtime after a covered loss—critical for charter and medevac operators.
• International and special-area endorsements: for overwater, border-crossing, or special-use operations.
• Lender / lessor requirements: breach-of-warranty, loss payee, and additional insured endorsements.

Pilot Training & Proficiency

Pilatus aircraft operate at a high performance level, and insurers expect training to match. Underwriters typically look for:

• Initial and annual recurrent simulator-based training
• PC-12 or PC-24 type-specific transition programs
• SOPs/SMS documentation for flight departments
• IFR proficiency and recent flying history

Better training documentation often opens more market options and lower premiums when you compare every carrier.

Operational Considerations

• Backcountry/unimproved strips: underwriters may require demonstrated skill, training, or mission limitations.
• Medevac operations: medical configuration and crew details must be disclosed; specialized endorsements may be required.
• Cargo missions: weight, routing, and loading procedures may influence coverage terms.
• International flying: navigation limits, insurance certificates, and local indemnity requirements must align with mission routes.

Cost Drivers & Ways to Save

• Maintain simulator-based recurrent training and keep certificates current.
• Provide detailed maintenance records and program compliance documentation.
• Use hangar storage whenever possible.
• Document SOPs, SMS, or safety procedures for structured operations.
• Bundle fleet policies or multi-aircraft coverage when applicable.

Popular Pilatus Models We Insure

• PC-12: NG, NGX, Legacy, and special-mission configurations.
• PC-24: Super Versatile Jet across business, charter, cargo, and medevac applications.

Documents & Details to Have Ready

• Training certificates (initial and recurrent).

• Maintenance program summaries, tracking reports, and inspection documentation.
• Mission profile: charter, medevac, cargo, or Part 91 business use.
