Pilatus Australia PC-12 VH-WBI
Newly registered Pilatus PC-12 flew into Cairns today, VH-WBI serial number 1394.
A previous PC-12 VH-WBI was owned by The BCM Partnership and flown by Bill Bristow (Angel Flight) the serial number was #617. It was last known to be for sale in Londonderry, New Hampshire.
The featured aircraft (above pictured) was known to be back at Archerfield, Brisbane on 18th July 2013.
Is this the same aircraft re-manufactured and re-painted???
I'm very intrigued by this aircraft.

Hi Graham, no this is a new PC-12NG (MSN 1394). The previous VH-WBI was a PC-12/45 that was sold to the US.
ReplyDeletePilatus kept the rego that Bill had and put it on this new PC-12.
