Swiss Aviation Pioneer Passes Away at 78
Pilatus is deeply saddened by the passing of Oscar J. Schwenk, its former long-time Chairman of the Board of Directors. Breaking Defense reports that Schwenk assumed responsibility for Pilatus in the 1990s and transformed the company into one of Switzerland’s most successful industrial enterprises. The PC-7 MkII, PC-12, PC-21, and PC-24 aircraft will continue to carry his spirit in the skies. We offer our condolences to his family and loved ones.
