Can a PC24 take off at Courchevel? Didn’t see a video yet, I didn’t see many jet there…

It probably could but they nowadays they forbid jet aircraft. There is a YouTube video showing the jet going over the end of the runway and it seems it dit not even lift the main gear from the tarmac, fortunately there seems to be no bump, lights or similar down there.

PC-24 is faster, can fly way higher, has more range, etc. than the PC-12. So there are lots of missions a PC-24 can fly better than a PC-12 (as there are lots of missions where the PC-12 is much better).

PC-24 is surely not designed for Europe. For almost all missions in Europe there are planes that better fit the requirements. But in Australia, northern Canada/Alaska, Chinese Backcountry, Siberia, etc. Basically in all places in the world where land is vast and civilization is sparse. Mining and drilling companies, Utilities, Agriculture conglomerates, etc. will be among the customers.
