It's always a good day when a Pilatus PC-12 rolls into our facility.

This speedy, do-everything single is powered by the Pratt & Whitney - RTX PT6A-67B — and few aircraft blend cabin comfort, range, and short-field capability quite like it.

Whatever you fly, if it's got a PT6A, Covington Aircraft has your engine needs covered. What's your PT6A-powered aircraft of choice?

Fifty years in, the story that keeps coming up isn't about growth or equipment. It's about a standard that never moved.

In this interview from our 50th anniversary, our team walk through Covington Aircraft's history and the one thing that stayed constant through every decade: we don't compromise on the work. That principle is why operators trusted us in the early years, and it's why they still do.

The tools evolve. The standard doesn't.

What was the moment that changed everything for Covington?

In this clip, our founder Paul Abbott looks back on the turning point: the presentation, the trust that followed, and the explosion of growth once our turbine team came together. 🛩️

Five decades later, we're still the only U.S.-owned Pratt & Whitney Designated Overhaul Facility, and that same commitment goes into every PT6A that leaves our floor in Okmulgee. ✈️

For 50 years we've built Covington Aircraft the only way we know how — one customer, and one engine, at a time. Thank you to everyone who's trusted us with their PT6A along the way. Here's to the next 50. 🙌

What makes the PT6A so reliable? ✈️

It comes down to smart engineering that’s stood the test of time.

✔️ Free-turbine design – isolates the prop from the gas generator, reducing stress and improving durability
✔️ Reverse-flow airflow – better cooling, easier maintenance access, and a more compact, efficient layout
✔️ Decades of proven performance – millions of flight hours across every corner of the globe

Designed by Pratt & Whitney Canada, the PT6A isn’t just an engine, it’s an aviation benchmark.
