Swiss Air Force Marks Decade of PC-21 Operations with Enhanced Training System
Pilatus has provided support for the Swiss Air Force’s PC-21 Jet Pilot Training System since its inception in 2008. The system has proven its effectiveness in training pilots for the F/A-18 Hornet, with a focus on a state-of-the-art cockpit environment. The Swiss Air Force has celebrated the 10-year anniversary of the program, marking a decade of successful training. The company’s maintenance and servicing team ensures the aircraft is always available for training. The system has reduced pollutant emissions and costs, and has been expanded to include a ground-based training system with a simulator and ‘Mission Planning and Debriefing System’. This is a testament to Pilatus’s commitment to providing high-quality training solutions.
