ROUGH RANGE

What N559PB might be worth, and where it’s heading.

A rough range: Radar's value model doesn't cover the Pilatus PC-12/45 on its own yet. From manufacturer-published new prices of comparable 950 shp single-engine turboprops, depreciated for age. The Pilatus PC-12 NG curve gives the shape of the forecast, and the range is widened to match. Not an appraisal.
