Some info on the real thing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilatus_PC-24


With a take-off distance of 820 m (2,690 ft) and a landing distance of 770 m (2,526 ft), the PC-24 is intended to be capable of operation from unpaved runways and grass strips. According to Pilatus, no other aircraft has this ability, which gives the jet access to over 21,000 airports that other jets cannot use.

Guessing it will be lite avionics , but seeing as it's a bizjet, I'd buy it

Thanks for the share Ferry, it's been a hectic few days here. :)

It's still a way off, there's a lot we want to do with the avionics, including a full FMS, though early days yet. :)

The Texan Driver is just around the corner (hopefully this weekend), with the Grob Tutor shortly thereafter, and then the PC-24 development. I've always wanted to add a business jet to our collection, and our relationship with Pilatus means that this project just makes sense! :)
