PlaneSense and KSD Aviation Launch Financing for Pilatus PC-12 and PC-24 Fractional Ownership

New program lets qualified individuals and businesses finance Pilatus PC-12 and PC-24 fractional shares with as little as 30% down —  underwritten by private credit firm KSD Capital.

PORTSMOUTH, N.H. — July 29, 2026 — PlaneSense, Inc., a leading fractional aircraft ownership program with more than 30 years of experience delivering world-class service across the U.S., announced today the launch of a fractional share financing program with KSD Aviation, the aviation financing platform of KSD Capital, a leading private credit firm. The program is available for purchasers of fractional shares in the Pilatus PC-12 turboprop and Pilatus PC-24 jet through the PlaneSense fractional program.

Qualified buyers can finance up to 70% of their fractional share, aligning the loan term with their PlaneSense share term including an automatic two-year extension. They will benefit from a 15-year amortization schedule engineered for lower monthly rates, which are competitive and indexed to Prime.

Unlike many aviation financing programs that are primarily structured around corporate borrowers, the KSD Aviation financing program is available to both individuals and businesses. Individuals may qualify based on personal credit and financial strength, while corporate entities may qualify based on business strength. Underwritten by KSD Capital, a private credit firm that has originated more than $5.5 billion in loans, the program brings institutional-grade credit to the fractional ownership model.

“Since 1995, we have focused on finding better, more intelligent ways to help individuals and businesses fly privately,” said George Antoniadis, President and CEO of PlaneSense, Inc. “For some prospective clients, financing can be an important part of the purchase decision. It allows them to preserve capital while still gaining access to the service and consistency of the PlaneSense experience.”

The KSD Aviation financing program reinforces the fundamental value advantage of PlaneSense fractional ownership. The Pilatus PC-24 seats up to eight passengers and combines the cabin comfort of a larger jet with the operating efficiency and short-runway capability of a light jet. The Pilatus PC-12 remains one of aviation’s most versatile and cost-effective turboprops. Together, they offer PlaneSense clients more aircraft, cabin comfort, and operational flexibility for their investment than comparable aircraft. Financing is now an added advantage.

“We built this program around the PlaneSense fractional program, so the financing fits an owner’s purchase precisely,” said Will Davis, CEO of KSD Capital. “Whether a client is buying personally or through their business, they can finance against the fractional share itself and remain in a strong equity position throughout the term. That level of integration, backed by an institutional private credit platform, is what sets the program apart.”

PlaneSense is recognized as a highly competitive fractional ownership model built on exceptional service, strong program value, and a modern Pilatus aircraft fleet. With the addition of  the KSD Aviation share financing program, the PlaneSense program becomes even more compelling for prospective buyers seeking a strategic path to fractional aircraft ownership. Financing is available now for new and rollover fractional share purchases. Prospective owners can learn more through their PlaneSense Sales Executive or by visiting planesense.com/finance.
