Avionics to confirm

The Honeywell brochure describes the PC-12 NGX with Epic 2.0 avionics: digital auto-throttle working with the FADEC-controlled engine and propeller, tactile feedback on steep bank, Emergency Descent Mode, ADS-B In traffic, SmartRunway and SmartLanding. Confirm which features your airframe actually has.

Maintenance and records

The PC-12/47E Aircraft Maintenance Manual (Revision 31, MSN 545, 1001-1719, 1721-1942) lists inspections at 300 FH, 600 FH, 1200 FH or 12 months, and 2400 FH or 24 months. It also lists unscheduled checks: hard landing, lightning strike, propeller sudden stoppage, tail-down damage, overspeed and volcanic ash. Ask for the records.

Engine start procedure change

POH Temporary Revision 31 (issued July 16, 2025, valid for PC-12/47E MSN 1720, 2001 and up) changes the engine start procedure. EPECS aborts a start on hung start, no light-off or starter switch pushed, and commands a 30 second dry motor run. ITT exceedance is not auto-aborted if avionics or engine indications are lost.

Safety notes

  • Per TR 31: if avionics or engine indications are lost during engine start, even momentarily, set the ENGINE switch OFF and abort the flight.
  • Per TR 31: report any such event to maintenance so they can check for ITT exceedance before further flight.
  • Normal start check: Ng stable at 64.5%. If Ng stays below 50% and the start is not aborted, push the STARTER switch momentarily.
