Pilatus Aircraft has renewed its authorized PC-12 service center agreement with Ruag MRO International, building on its PC-12 type rating status that’s been in place for 11 years, the Emmen, Switzerland-based maintenance provider announced. “Over the years, Pilatus PC-12 customers have come to understand that this expertise translates into the prompt and reliable resolution of routine maintenance events and optimized downtimes, all of which means improved aircraft availability and more time in the air,” said Ruag Geneva site general manager Pio Ming.

An average of 150 aircraft maintenance and support events are handled by Ruag’s dedicated PC-12 team at Geneva-Meyrin, Switzerland, which includes line, base, and heavy maintenance, as well as AOG, avionics upgrades and cabin modifications. That facility also is an authorized service center for Dassault Falcon and a service center for the Embraer Legacy, Bombardier Challenger 604/605, Hawker Beechcraft, and Piaggio P.180 Avanti.
