PC-12 Pro's Autoland Now Holds Both FAA and EASA Sign-Off

Pilatus says its PC-12 Pro's emergency autoland capability has cleared certification with both the FAA and its European counterpart, EASA. That double sign-off matters to owners of the single-engine turboprop, many of whom fly it themselves under single-pilot rules rather than with a hired crew. A system that can land the aircraft on its own now carries the same regulatory standing on both sides of the Atlantic, not just approval in one jurisdiction. The capability moves from company claim to certified feature.
