The Pilatus PC-21 is an advanced single-engine trainer aircraft; it is often referred to by Pilatus as being the "Twenty-first Century Trainer". The type can be applied for various training capacities, including basic flying training, advanced flight training, full mission management training, and embedded simulation/emulation. The PC-21 is powered by a single Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-68B turboprop engine of 1,600 shaft horse power, which drives a five-bladed graphite scimitar propeller manufactured by Hartzell. The aircraft's fully digital glass cockpit features three large colour liquid crystal displays.

Features:

  • Fully animated external fuselage, including flight surfaces, propeller, landing gear, WingTip Vortex and Acrobatic Smokes.

  • The interior cabin is almost completely animated and has been designed above all for a VR use that makes the flight experience indescribable.

  • The flight model has been carefully studied and tested in order to recreate the incredible maneuvering capabilities of the PC-21.

  • The aircraft is supplied with 13 liveries.

  • Thanks also to Flamin Fenix that helped me with better WingTip Vortex.

The PC-21 is a single-engine, low-wing advanced military trainer produced by Pilatus Aircraft of Switzerland. First flown in July of 2002, the company's “Twenty-First Century Trainer” was designed to provide levels of performance so high that pilots could conduct the majority of their training in it before switching to jet-powered craft. As a result, militaries from a number of countries use the PC-21 in their flight schools, including the United Kingdom, Spain, Australia, and France.

Powered by a 1,600-horsepower Pratt & Whitney Canada turboprop fitted to a five-blade, constant-speed propeller, the PC-21 has a top end of 426 mph, a rate of climb of 4,000 feet per minute, and a ceiling of 38,000 feet. With its main wing, tail section, and control surfaces designed for high speed maneuvers similar to tactical jet aircraft, the PC-21 is capable of handling stresses from -4 g to +8 g.

The aircraft features a pressurized, tandem configuration cockpit with a canopy that allows for a 360 degree view, while inside a full digital glass cockpit and advanced flight control system keep the trainer stable throughout its entire flight range, from full throttle to its stall speed of 110 miles per hour.

Even while parked on the runway, the stunning lines of the Pilatus PC-21 evoke searing speed -- but once in the air, this beautiful beast proves that it was created for full-spectrum performance. Loops, rolls, wing-overs, Immelmann turns, and more can all be executed with utmost precision—it’s all up to the pilot’s skill and creativity.
