RADAR ESTIMATE

What N117VK is worth, and where it’s heading.

Radar's value model doesn't cover the Pilatus PC-24 on its own yet, so this borrows the Embraer Phenom 300/300E curve, scales it to N117VK's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES

About N117VK

Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.

Overview

This article describes airframe N117VK, a factory-built Pilatus PC-24 bearing serial number 117 and completed in 2018 by manufacturer Pilatus Aircraft Ltd. The airframe is owned by Falcon Aircraft Leasing LLC, a Phoenix, Arizona-based limited liability company, and is registered in the US. Its equipment fit and registry information identify it as an active fixed-wing multi-engine business jet within lease/operator fleets.

Operations & Cabin

The airframe is registered with a 9-seat executive layout, reflecting its use for corporate transport and charter operations; Pilatus factory interiors for the PC-24 are commonly offered in alternative configurations including 6-seat executive, 8-seat double-club, 6+2 and 10-seat commuter options, but this specific airframe maintains the nine-place executive arrangement. Avionics aboard N117VK are provided by the Honeywell Advanced Cockpit Environment (ACE) with SmartView synthetic vision and two 12" primary displays, supporting modern situational awareness and single-pilot or two-pilot IFR operations. Typical mission profiles for this configuration would emphasize regional business travel and on-demand charter routes within the aircraft’s approximately 2,000 nm range and high-speed cruise of 440 kts, with operations up to its 45,000 ft ceiling. As a leased asset based in Phoenix, AZ, maintenance and scheduling are managed to support frequent short- and medium-haul deployments.

Model & Market Context

The Pilatus PC-24 family occupies a niche as a light business jet with a flexible cabin and short-field capability relative to traditional light jets, appealing to owners and charter operators seeking a blend of cargo-door utility and cabin versatility. With twin Williams FJ44-4A engines producing 3,420 lbf each, the type competes with light-to-midsize jets offering similar range and cruise speed metrics; resale and lease considerations for this 2018 airframe reflect steady demand for capable, low-utilization PC-24s and the influence of factory interior choices and avionics suites on marketability. Maintenance planning and resale valuation for this airframe are informed by its executive interior, Honeywell ACE fit, and operator base in Phoenix.
