The PC-12 must be a hell of a maintenance hog if the operating costs are similar
yep, the maintenance is the killer and nope, the PC12 is actually more.
That part I would have to agree with, especially when you've got a 6'6" pilot who wears size 13 boots
Actually the rudder arrangement in the PC12 means that you cannot - as a 6'4" pilot - extend your feet down between the pedals for a stretch, unlike the B200. Also the pilot seat in the B200 has multiple adjustments in all dimensions plus inflatable lumbar support. The door in the PC12 is nice but not nice enough to forgo the advantages of the B200.
