Walkabout Air has announced the addition of a Pilatus PC-12 to its 135-charter certificate. The aircraft will be based at SheltAir, in St Petersburg, Florida, and is the third plane added to Walkabout Air's 135-charter certificate in the past two-months.

"This is extremely exciting for us," said Walkabout Air's Director of Operations Chip Johnson. "The PC-12 is a beautiful aircraft and is a perfect choice for customers who travel to the Bahamas, the Florida Keys, Gulfport, Mississippi and Tallahassee, just to name a few destinations."

"In just a short period of time we've added this Pilatus, along with a King Air 350 and a Hawker 800XP to really give our fleet some flexibility," Johnson added.

The Pilatus PC-12 represents one of the finest business aircraft ever produced and has earned its place as the largest single-engine turboprop in the world, with the largest cabin of its class.

This aircraft can seat six passengers and combines excellent economy, reliability and safety, while giving Walkabout Air customers another versatile aircraft to charter.
