Model & Market Context
The airframe bearing tail number N242PC is a 2023-build Pilatus PC-24 with serial number 336, currently owned by SHOTGUN RANCH AVIATION LLC of Post, OR, US. The aircraft is registered in the United States under US registry records and appears to have a single identifiable owner on file; no prior ownership transfers are published in the supplied data. Delivered new in 2023, this airframe's status is consistent with a modern executive-configured PC-24 operated from the owner's base in Post, Oregon. Registered in the United States, the aircraft's paperwork and home-base association indicate primary operation and maintenance under U.S. regulatory oversight.
The airframe is fitted with an executive cabin layout certified for 9 seats, featuring a large forward cabin door and an in-flight-accessible baggage compartment, which support mixed passenger and light-cargo missions. Avionics are provided as the Pilatus ACE suite, a Honeywell Primus Epic 2.0 / Primus Apex-derived Advanced Cockpit Environment, aligning the cockpit for single-pilot or two-pilot executive operations depending on operator SOP. Typical mission profiles for this installation, given a 2,040 nm range and 440 kt cruise, would include long regional hops and point-to-point executive transport from the owner’s base in Post, OR, with in-flight baggage access enabling quick turnarounds. Maintenance considerations for this specific aircraft center on two Williams FJ44-4A-QPM turbofans and operator-managed schedules consistent with manufacturer service intervals and U.S. registry requirements.
As configured, this specific Pilatus PC-24 occupies a performance niche defined by a combination of moderate transregional range, high cruise speed, and a nine-seat executive cabin. The twin Williams FJ44-4A-QPM engines provide the thrust and redundancy expected in the light twin-jet category, supporting operations up to a 45,000 ft ceiling. Buyer and charter demand for this configuration would be driven by operators seeking flexible cabin access and baggage capabilities alongside efficient cruise performance. Resale and maintenance considerations for this airframe will follow Pilatus PC-24 fleet practices and the owner’s U.S.-based maintenance and regulatory environment.
