I was going to ask about what this plane was, but Lynn already answered. Is it North American and is it still made ? Thanks, Peter

The aircraft is a Pilatus PC-12, still in production. The following is from the Pilatus website.

Pilatus Group
An International Oriented Swiss Company
Founded in 1939, Pilatus Aircraft Ltd is the only Swiss company to develop, produce and sell aircraft to customers around the world: from the legendary Pilatus Porter PC-6 to the best-selling PC-12, a single-engine turboprop, and the PC-21, the training system of the future. Pilatus is currently developing the PC-24 – the world’s first ever business jet for use on short unprepared runways. Domiciled in Stans, the company is certified to ISO 14001 in recognition of its efforts for the environment.
