PC12
Aircraft Model (Name & Manufacturer)
Pilatus PC-12
Aircraft Category
A/B, but considering that it has a wingspan 3 meters shorter than the DHC6 (the only A aeroplane in game right now) it should be A
Purpose or Role in Game
A regional carrier, and a military plane for some specific countries (see below).
Why should this aircraft be added?
I feel like WoA would benefit immensely from another A-size aeroplane, and Pilates group is widely used both as a charter plane but also in scheduled departures by some smaller airlines. Also I think that the propellor that is on the nose of the PC-12 is just soo cute.

Special characteristics or variants
Personally I just adore tiny planes, and the Pilatus series would fit very nicely as another A-size aircraft.
