 Pro Star Pilatus Center has signed a contract with Polymer Resources Ltd. for the sale of the PC-12 NG factory demonstrator currently on exhibit at the 2009 National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) convention in Orlando, Florida.
The Chairman of Polymer Resources, Mr. Les Klein was on hand to accept the keys to his new aircraft. Founded in 1974 and based in Stamford, Connecticut, Polymer Resources will use the aircraft for corporate travel nationwide. Speaking from the Pilatus booth at the Orange County Convention Center, Mr. Klein commented: "We examined a number of candidate aircraft for our company and it was very obvious that the PC-12 NG captured the greatest number of key mission requirements. Our senior management and technical personnel will put the aircraft to good use in support of our growing customer base. In the end the Pilatus reputation for product support in addition to excellent operating economics made the PC-12 NG a clear choice. We look forward to a long association with Pro Star Pilatus Center as we prepare for entry in to service of our new PC-12 NG."
Furthermore, Pilatus is offering an innovative new Cursor Control Device (CCD) as standard equipment on their 2010 Pilatus PC-12 NG.

The CCD provides a further option for cursor control in addition to the current joystick mounted on the multifunction display controller in the lower centre of the instrument panel.
In addition, the company has selected OK Business Aircraft, s.r.o as its new dealership for south-eastern Europe.
