learjet 23 single pilot

Think about it…Having moved up as a singe-pilot operator from a Cirrus SR22T then Cessna 421C then to a CJ2 over the past 12 years, I can say flying the CJ2 by myself is by far the safest option.

I have more than 3000hrs in a PC-12 and same in a CJ-3.

I have a type rating for a King Air 300/350 single pilot. It is a single pilot future Mac, even for the commercial carriers and the sooner the better.I totally agree with Dr. Cyrill Wipfli. The 40/45 was Bombardier’s first new design in the iconic Learjet line after the purchase of Learjet in 1990. What about flight time and is there any restrictions concerning duty time.It seems if MAC would have done a quick google search, he would have found Jeff’s link to the AIN research of the statistics on single-pilot vs two-pilot flying in single pilot capable jets. In the CJ’s case, there are CE-525 and CE-525S type ratings. The insurance companies have a lot more hull exposure on a jet than on a piston. Flight into known icing capability and air conditioning also are standard; options include a terrain awareness and warning system, traffic advisory system, and Iridium satellite transceiver. Single-pilot, primarily owner-flown turbine airplanes plodded along. The biggest difference is in the renounced single-pilot operation in favor of higher operating weights. But then he says you compromise safety by flying alone, because two pair of eyes see more than one? Big iron activity was strong. A pocket door between the cabin and the galley/entry door area quiets the cabin by up to 8 dB SIL, making it possible for passengers across from each other or even in the opposite zone to hear each other.The cabin management system is Lufthansa Technik’s nice system with niceview moving-map.Each seat except the one next to the emergency exit is equipped with a popup 7-inch touchscreen monitor mounted in the side ledge. The co pilot was a qualified pilot with all the ratings and going into Midway on the arrival he put the wrong altitude in for the arrival, luckily I caught it.

With today’s automation, the single pilot is mostly the pilot monitoring. Each pilot can control the center MFD by taking over priority. Even so, it got off to a good start. The Learjet 75 standard interior consists of two four-seat, double-club seating areas in a flat-floor cabin with a forward galley opposite the entry door and an aft lavatory with its own window and a belted seat.The Learjet 75 is equipped with the latest Garmin G5000 integrated flight deck. But the majority of accidents are single pilot. But I am from Europe, and I had to do a multi-crew training, although I am not certified to fly multi-crew, but EASA forced me to do it nevertheless with the argument the autopilot being my pilot flying, and I am only the pilot monitoring. At first, turboprops and light jets suffered the most. For many their logic escapes me and reminds me of the three monkeys,––– see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil and to finish off, 90% of the soldiers in Vietnam died with their boots on, therefore boots are dangerous.When sounding off your pet arguments make certain your logic will withstand close scrutiny and be of value to those you are wishing to address with your comments. This is the top-of-the-line Caravan.

I never had any issues getting insurance. If you would of checked the stats from the AIN article on how single pilot is safer than a crew I will put here what they areJeff conveniently left out a very important number in his list of “facts.”Hey Mike, it wasnt a hit list it was only using single pilot qualified aircraft that fly single pilot or as a crew not other aircraft so the disparity is not that much.

In the “real world” of both the 135 and 91 I have flown with both highly experienced and “newbie” pilots that were excellent stick, rudder, and technology aviators but severely lacking in even basic CRM skills.

But then an FAA test pilot forgot to raise the flaps on a balked landing.
