N23NL

This entry covers a specific airframe, the business jet registered as N23NL, a 2023-build Pilatus PC-24 with serial number 312. The aircraft is owned by N&L CAPITAL HOLDINGS LLC of Newark, DE, US, and carries a United States registration. It entered service in 2023 and is recorded on the U.S. registry under the listed owner; there are no additional public operator assignments published for this airframe. Valuation records list the airframe at approximately $11,000,000, reflecting market assessments for a late-model, low-time platform of this configuration.

This airframe is fitted in the Pilatus factory standard executive arrangement described as a typical single-pilot certified layout accommodating 2 crew + 6–9 pax, with a flat‑floor cabin and a large cargo door that supports mixed passenger and freight roles. The single‑pilot certification allows operation with reduced flightcrew in appropriate regulatory and insurance environments. With a mission range of 2,000 nm and a cruise speed near 440 kts, the aircraft is capable of medium‑ to long‑leg point‑to‑point business trips and regional transcontinental flights from its owner’s base in Newark, DE. The large cargo door and flat floor present notable operational flexibility for bulky baggage, auxiliary equipment, or quick reconfiguration between VIP and cargo duties, and are factors that influence maintenance planning and ground handling at operator facilities.

As a member of the Pilatus PC-24 family, this airframe combines twin-engine short-field capability with clean‑sheet business-jet cruise performance: twin Williams FJ44-4A-QPM engines producing 3,433 lbf each, a service ceiling of 45,000 ft, and a 440 kt cruise. The specification set (range, speed, payload flexibility and single‑pilot certification) places the type in a market niche for owners seeking a versatile light-to-midsize business jet capable of mixed passenger/cargo roles. The reported valuation of $11,000,000 for this 2023 serial 312 reflects demand for recent-production airframes with the PC-24’s operational flexibility; such examples typically attract buyers and charter operators prioritizing low-cycle, modern systems and the logistical advantages of a large cargo door and flat‑floor cabin.
