Buffett Adds Another Airplane to His Fleet
March 4th, 2013
Jimmy Buffett has expanded his fleet of airplanes, adding a 2012 Pilatus PC-12 with the tail number N920JB.
The PC-12 is a Swiss-built single engine turboprop that can seat 8-9 people, cruise at 280 knots, and fly 1,573 nautical miles at 30,000 ft.
The airplane allows Buffett to fly shorter trips that wouldn’t be as practical in the Falcon 900, such as West Palm Beach to Orlando.
The PC-12 can also takeoff and land on much shorter runways, needing only 2,650 ft for takeoff at max weight.
