The increase in capacity will enable the company to meet the high demand for the PC-12 and PC-24 aircraft models.

Production at the Pilatus plant in Seville has been ramping up since the beginning of 2025, the company said. Structural assemblies for the PC-24 and cable harnesses for the PC-12 are already being manufactured there, while structural production for the PC-12 will start at the beginning of next year.

According to the information, around 75 people are currently employed there, and a further increase in staff is planned for the coming year.
