FYI this video says "paid promotion" - Pilatus contributed to the production costs of this video but we agreed upfront that I could share my unfiltered thoughts in these videos. They've been great to work with! Thanks @PilatusAircraftLtd !

I recently got to fly the Pilatus PC-24 jet and it was absolutely amazing. It flies 400+ knots, is certified for single pilot operations, cruises at 45,000 feet, and can land on dirt, gravel, and grass airstrips. This airplane is simply unreal. In this flight we got to fly from Denver, Colorado to Silver City, NM to do some dirt strip landings and see what the PC-24 can do.
