Oriens Aviation has announced plans to add its first executive jet for charter, a Pilatus PC-24, in the second quarter of 2025. The company also confirmed the addition of a second PC-12, primarily for air ambulance services.
The PC-24 will be the first jet operated under Oriens Aviation's air operator's certificate. The company already manages a 2.7-year-old San Marino-registered HondaJet Elite II, T7-VRF (msn 42000244), based at Cranfield, but under Part-NCC regulations. Oriens Aviation's UK AOC includes two PC-12s, including the one was added in January 2025, and is primarily dedicated to air ambulance missions.
Beyond private jet charters and aircraft management, Oriens Aviation specialises in aircraft maintenance, with a maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) facility housed in a recently expanded hangar at its London Biggin Hill headquarters. The company is an authorised sales and service centre for Pilatus Aircraft and Costruzioni Aeronautiche TECNAM and serves as an MRO partner for Cirrus Aircraft.
