Pilatus

The Pilatus PC-12 is the best-selling single-engine turboprop of its class, and the PC-24 has carved out a unique niche as the only light jet certified for unimproved runway operations. Along with the PC-9, they fly out of FBOs, corporate hangars, and remote strips on every continent, often in places where ground support has to be self-contained and dependable. Tronair stocks Pilatus ground support equipment built around these airframes, including towbars, aircraft jacks sized for light jet and turboprop weight classes, GPU 28V DC units, wheel chocks, and oxygen and nitrogen servicing carts. Operators get GSE specified for the airframe, and for the kinds of places Pilatus aircraft actually fly.

GSE for Where Pilatus Aircraft Operate

Pilatus airframes work hard for a living, and they often work where infrastructure is thin. The PC-12 NGX hauls executives one day and pulls medevac duty the next. The PC-24 lands on unpaved strips that conventional light jets can't touch. Operations like these put ground support equipment through the wringer, since the equipment has to follow the aircraft into the same kinds of environments. 

Tronair's Pilatus GSE is engineered to OEM specifications and built with the same Tronair quality standards that operators have counted on since 1971. From towbars that interface with your PC-12's tow point, to tripod jacks and 28V DC ground power units that support avionics checks on the ramp, every product is matched to the airframe at the part-number level.

What's in the Tronair Pilatus GSE Lineup?

Tronair's Pilatus collection covers the full scope of ground handling, jacking, power, and servicing equipment for the PC-12, PC-24, and PC-9. Below is how the catalog breaks down by category.

Towbars and Aircraft Movement


The Tronair portable towbar for the PC-12 is a popular choice for single-aircraft operations and FBOs that need a compact, easy-to-store option. For mixed Pilatus fleets, the Tronair multi-head towbar pairs a universal bar with a PC-12/PC-24 attachment head featuring a sliding ball-lock pin arrangement, so a single bar can tow both airframes with a quick head change.

For operations that prefer to eliminate the towbar entirely, the EJP towbarless tug is a purpose-built alternative. It connects directly to the nose gear without a towbar, reducing setup time and giving ground crews tighter, more responsive control during pushback and repositioning.

Aircraft Jacks for Light Jet and Turboprop Applications

Tronair's aircraft jacks for light jet and turboprop platforms cover the Pilatus lineup with capacities scaled to each model. Our 5-ton tripod jacks work on PC-24 main and nose landing gear, while smaller-capacity jacks support the PC-12 and PC-9. Tail stands, including a tail stand with alarm developed specifically for the PC-24, prevent tipping during cabin loading and aft maintenance. Each jack features hand-wheel safety nuts, Skydrol-resistant seals, and auto-retract cylinder assemblies as standard.

Ground Power Units

Pilatus avionics suites, including the Honeywell Primus Apex on the PC-12 NG and the Advanced Cockpit Environment on the NGX, benefit from a reliable ground power unit (GPU) 28V DC for avionics checks, software loads, and pre-flight system tests. Tronair GPUs supply 28.5 VDC for these workflows in both diesel-driven configurations for ramp operations and solid-state rectifier configurations for hangar use.

Wheel Chocks for Light Aircraft

Wheel chocks for light aircraft are among the simplest items on the ramp and also some of the most critical. Tronair wheel chocks sized for Pilatus tire dimensions provide secure aircraft positioning during loading, fueling, and overnight parking, with rubber, urethane, and aluminum options available depending on the operating environment.

Oxygen and Nitrogen Servicing Carts

The PC-12 and PC-24 both routinely cruise at altitudes where pressurization, supplemental oxygen, and properly serviced struts and tires matter. Tronair oxygen and nitrogen servicing carts, including tiltable four-bottle service carts with high and low pressure regulators, handle oxygen system servicing, nitrogen strut and tire servicing, and other gaseous service requirements documented in Pilatus maintenance procedures.

FAQ About Pilatus Ground Support Equipment

  • Can Tronair supply wheel chocks for light aircraft in cold-weather configurations?

    Yes. Wheel chocks are available in rubber and urethane compounds rated for low-temperature use, which matters for Pilatus operators flying in northern latitudes and high-altitude airports where ramp temperatures swing significantly through the year.

  • Do Pilatus oxygen and nitrogen servicing carts require operator certification?

    Operating gas servicing equipment generally requires trained personnel familiar with the pressures and safety procedures involved. Tronair provides operation and service manuals with each cart, along with technical articles and training resources through our support portal.

  • Can I tow a PC-12 and a PC-24 with the same towbar?

    Yes, with the right setup. Tronair's multi-head towbar uses a universal bar and a PC-12 / PC-24 attachment head that interfaces with both airframes. The head uses a sliding ball-lock pin connection to the aircraft tow point, allowing operators to swap between the PC-12 and PC-24 in seconds rather than maintaining two separate towbars.
