Model & Market Context
This airframe, registered as N517LH, is a Pilatus PC-24 built in 2019 with serial number 157. The aircraft is owned by Laboratory Corporation of America Holdings (a corporation based in Burlington, NC, US), and the corporate owner serves as the operator and primary base for this airframe's missions. FAA records for this registration list an executive/commuter flexible cabin fit with 9 seats, and the airframe is valued at approximately $11,000,000 in contemporary listings. Registry entries and maintenance records indicate standard corporate operation and continued active service since delivery.
The cabin on this airframe is configured in an executive/commuter flexible layout with the FAA registration record specifying 9 seats, enabling mixed business transport and light cargo/medevac flexibility. The avionics fit is a Honeywell Advanced Cockpit Environment (ACE) including two 12" PFDs with synthetic vision, supporting enhanced situational awareness and single-pilot or two-crew corporate operations. Typical missions for N517LH under corporate ownership include regional and continental business travel within the aircraft’s 2,000 nm range and high-speed cruise profile near 440 kts, basing operations around the owner’s Burlington, NC location. Maintenance considerations align with twin Williams FJ44 turbofan support infrastructure and Pilatus heavy-check cycles as typical for operator-maintained corporate fleets.
The Pilatus PC-24 family occupies the light twinjet niche bridging utility and executive transport with a combination of short-field capability and long-range cruise performance; this airframe’s 45,000 ft ceiling and 440 kt cruise reflect that mission set. Competing models typically include other light business jets and entry-level midsize jets; buyer and charter demand for corporate-configured PC-24s emphasizes rugged runway flexibility and adaptable cabins. Resale and maintenance considerations for this serial (157) and year (2019) align with a healthy aftermarket for well-maintained corporate PC-24s, with valuations around $11,000,000 driven by configuration and engine support.
