Finding the Right PC-24 in One of the Tightest Jet Markets, With Zero Downtime
When this repeat client engaged The Jet Agent to sell their current jet and acquire a Pilatus PC-24, the market was exceptionally tight. With only 302 PC-24s delivered worldwide and just 8 publicly listed for sale—a mere 2.6% of the global fleet—none of the available aircraft met the client’s requirements for cosmetics, age, pedigree, or U.S.-based history.
Making the challenge more complex, the client wanted no downtime between aircraft and preferred not to own two jets at once. This required precise market intelligence, careful timing, and access far beyond the public listings.
The Jet Agent went to work, activating our private network, contacting PC-24 owners directly, and conducting detailed conversations to determine whether their jets were available, suitable, and aligned with our client’s criteria.
Through this proactive outreach, we uncovered three off-market PC-24 opportunities—each a better fit than anything available on the open market.
After evaluating the options, the client selected the PC-24 that matched their mission, aesthetic expectations, and ownership preferences. From there, we coordinated a highly choreographed transaction, arranging for both the sale of their existing aircraft and the acquisition of the PC-24 to close on the same day.
The result:
No period of dual ownership
A superior aircraft that couldn’t be found on the open market
- A smooth transition
In one of the most constrained markets in business aviation, The Jet Agent delivered what public listings alone could never provide—true access, strong strategy, and seamless execution.
