crossing Australia in Pilatus style

The Pilatus PC-12 aircraft is one of the world’s most versatile small passenger planes, capable of handling anything the Australian bush can throw at it with speed and elegance. With these credentials, Adelaide-based luxury tour operator The Tailor felt it was the perfect aircraft for its discerning clientele, combining sleek design with comfort and the ability to land on the outback’s more primitive landing strips. The eight-passenger turbo-prop was purpose built for The Tailor, which has formed a joint venture with charter company Pegasus Air. Together, they’ll provide travellers from home and abroad with a Swiss-engineered way to discover the majesty of Australia’s vast landscape – from the cities to the Red Centre to the coast – with unparalleled flexibility and sophistication. The Tailor’s PC-12 is currently in operation for private charters, with a selection of Air Safari itineraries on the horizon.
