247 Aviation (EMC, Belfast City) has added a first Pilatus PC-24 to its charter certificate while retiring the only jet it previously operated, a Learjet 45(XR), ch-aviation research reveals. The Pilatus Aircraft is operated on behalf of Silver Aviation, a non-AOC holder.
The 2024-built Pilatus PC-24, G-SLVA (msn 541), was registered in the United Kingdom and added to 247 Aviation's air operator's certificate (AOC) on May 22.
Delivered to Silver Aviation in December 2024, the jet was initially registered in San Marino as T7-VITA and placed on the AOC of SybaJet San Marino. It last operated under the company's 'BCP' code on May 2, flying between London City and London Biggin Hill, where it remains parked and has yet to operate as G-SLVA.
SybaJet San Marino confirmed to ch-aviation that it is actively sourcing a Pilatus PC-24 to replace T7-VITA. The company also revealed plans to add three aircraft in June, a Falcon 2000DX and two Hawker 4000s, operated on behalf of Airavat Aviation, a subsidiary of Dubai-based Transworld Group. SybaJet San Marino's AOC currently comprises a single 12.3-year-old G650.
Meanwhile, 247 Aviation's Learjet 45(XR), G-FEMC (msn 45-097), configured for air ambulance operations, has been removed from the company's AOC. Stored at London Biggin Hill since April 25, 2024, it was deregistered and exported to Canada on May 22, 2025. The 24.6-year-old jet's future registration and operator is currently unknown.
This PC-24 joins four PC-12s and two DA62s on 247 Aviation's AOC. In addition to the newly added aircraft, two PC-12s are also operated on behalf of Silver Aviation, which together comprise the company’s fleet.
