The first Pilatus PC-24 on the New Zealand was registered as ZK-JFL2 on 29-11-2022 to Distinction Hotels New Zealand Ltd of Invercargill.
This replacing their Pilatus PC-12/47E ZK-TFL which they had operated since October of 2017.
C/n 119 was rolled out as HB-VST in November of 2018.
Quickly flown out to Australia it became VH-FGM2 on 03-12-2018 to Dalydine Pty Ltd of Western Australia to be operated by Pilatus Australia Pty Ltd and arriving at their Adelaide base in South Australia on 14-12-2028.
It visited Auckland from Adelaide and Sydney for the first time on 25-04-2019 and visited Kerikeri, back to Auckland then on to Wellington. Woodbourne got a visit on the 27th before it returned to Auckland for the night. It departed back to Sydney, Albury and Adelaide on the 28th.
I next noted it operating out of Invercargill from about 12-12-2021 with it remaining on its Australian certification for nearly a year before its "first of type" papers were sorted.
It became ZK-JFL2 on 29-11-2022.
It is fitted out as a six-seat executive with separate cockpit.
