I know there are talented and capable pilots in every type of aircraft, and I’m sure there are plenty of examples of Pilatus pilots who’ve been having a bad day, but I have been paying attention and I’m continually amazed that PC-12 videos as a group consistently demonstrate some of the smoothest, most perfect approaches and landings I’ve ever seen. Like they’re on rails.

There was a cropdusters field up north near Copeland. We would land their sometimes. 4 seat and 6 seat Cessna's, and a few long flights with a Bellanca Citabria from Kelso, Wa. Just miles from Gramps and Grannys house, right at the Porthill turnoff, right by Mt Hall school. Copeland is North of Bonners Ferry. Bonners Ferry/Boundary County had a dual strip north of town(grass or asphalt). This was a long time ago. Several times we almost made Deer Jerky with ryegrass stuffing, by way of Lycoming. Don't know if those strips are still there. Henley's Aerodrome was the location of my first Open Cockpit ride in a Stearman Cropduster Bipe. Long before it was a funpark. I miss the North Kootenai Valley.

Johnson Creek (3U2) is one of 30+ backcountry airports managed and maintained by the State of Idaho and is a gem of a camping destination. Many of these strips are accessible only to proper bush planes but 3U2 (and its hot showers and hot coffee) can be accessed by a wider variety of aircraft. The PC-12's low approach speed and impressive landing gear allow it to land on other-than-pavement airstrips. Great job, Pilatus!

Lovely aircraft! Silly question, but how does de-confliction work when this is in the pattern? Much faster than the usual aircraft that arrive there 😅

They can fly less than 100 knots if need be. They fit in a pattern with other airplanes, even small ones

The landing lights cycle like that by themselves for better daylight recognition. When used as landing lights at night they remain solid one. At least that is how they worked in the Gulfstreams I flew.
