N513PS

This entry describes a specific airframe, N513PS, a Pilatus PC-24 built in 2024 with serial number 513. The aircraft is registered in the US and is owned by RIGI INC, a corporation based in Portsmouth, NH, US; delivered new to RIGI INC and retained in corporate registry. Operator and home base activity has been recorded from Portsmouth, New Hampshire, with registry and valuation notes indicating the airframe is in current service and listed with an estimated market value of $11,134,960. No major incidents or transfers beyond the original ownership are recorded in the provided data.

The airframe is outfitted with an executive flat-floor cabin configured in an operator-recorded 9-seat layout while retaining documented flexibility for 6–10 seating options, allowing for mixed passenger and light cargo missions. Avionics are specified as the Advanced Cockpit Environment (ACE) powered by Honeywell, supporting modern flight-deck automation, situational awareness, and single-pilot or dual-pilot operation profiles. Typical operations for this PC-24 airframe would include regional corporate transport, on-demand charter, and point‑to‑point missions within its 2,000 nm range and high-speed cruise of 440 kts, frequently operating from the owner’s Portsmouth, NH base. Maintenance considerations follow Pilatus and Williams engine OEM schedules, with particular attention to maintaining the Williams FJ44-4A-QPM engines to preserve resale value and dispatch reliability.

The Pilatus PC-24 family occupies a niche between light and medium business jets, offering short-field capability and a flat-floor cabin in a class often compared to light-to-midsize turbofan business jets. With a 45,000 ft service ceiling and a 440 kts cruise, it competes for buyers seeking versatile mission capability and small-airport access rather than maximum cabin size. Market demand tends to favor owners who value flexibility and rugged field performance; resale and maintenance considerations hinge on engine cycles, avionics updates such as ACE, and verified maintenance records—factors reflected in the aircraft’s $11,134,960 valuation.
