PAC manufactures aircraft parts for Boeing, Airbus and others. Their success with the CT/4 civilian and military trainer and the Cresco agricultural plane led to testing the growing market for turbine utility singles. The New Zealand company ultimately built the 750XL, an extremely versatile, fixed-gear Pratt & Whitney-powered aircraft, and quickly found a niche in personal, passenger and freight hauling applications. FAA certification now welcomes the PAC 750XL into the U.S. market.
