Must be a lot of stupid people with money about, the original PC-24 order book for the first batch opened and closed in days, the same will happen when the order book is re-opened some time soon. With preferential customers fixed up, earliest delivery dates for a new customer of the company look like somewhere between 2021 and end 2022.
And, comparatively, this aircraft is expensive in it's class.
What other bizjet manufacturer has their capacity sold out, they are even closing Porter production to make a bit more room.
Tootle pip!!
