  1. VWO has already been withdrawn from service and replaced.

    “Two PC-12s are due for replacement over the next six months, likely to be the two remaining PC-12/45 aircraft, VH-VWO and VH-ZWO.”

    The two remaining aircraft were YWO and ZWO, but ZWO has be recently decommissioned from service and replaced by OWV.

    The PC-24 jets aren’t twice as fast as the PC12s. The PC12s have a TAS between 240 and 260kts. The PC-24s are expected to have a TAS around 400-420kts.
