    Citation Encore Vs Lear 35

    the only time I see 460kts is in the low 30s, in the 40s you'll see 440 or so... you made it to 230 in 5 minutes? so what - you're still in the trop. try getting to 430 in 17 minutes. thats my best time in the 31 But I do believe that overall the Citation is a better product than the 30...

    Citation Encore Vs Lear 35

    The Lear is like a 74 Porshe 911, fun to drive but NO creature comforts of any kind. The Citation is like a 2005 Honda Accord, comfy, clean, lotsa gagets to play with, but kinda vanilla. and it probably wont have that funky "Lear Jet" smell. but the real answer is what UltraRunner said -...

    Type A and Type B RNAV Arrivals

    I have heard, but am not possitive, that with the GNS, if you have an arrival loaded and you manually insert a waypoint or gap, it will dump the whole arrival. But again, the FAA wants the box to do it without pilot assistance.

    Type A and Type B RNAV Arrivals

    No, I don't believe you are missing anything. We all know there are pilots out there that don't read anything but Maxim (not that Maxim is a bad magazine). they just don't stay up on changes in the system. How else do you explain a pilot flying into the DCA ADIZ? We would like to think, as...

    World Wide Jet (Morristown, NJ)

    If you mean the company out of Millville, you pay for your training and the salary isn't much. I'm not positive of this, but I believe they are the same outfit that used to be called Jet Alliance / Air Castle. They have had some problems. They were operating one of the Challengers that crashed...

    Type A and Type B RNAV Arrivals

    Now if you state "no RNAV SID/STAR" Are all RNAV SID/STARS either type A or type B? Are there some that are just basic RNAV? Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isnt type A & B predicated on the RNP value? And that is why the GNS can't do them. Because the box only understands RNP in the...

    Type A and Type B RNAV Arrivals

    We are looking at selling our 31 and getting an Ultra. One of the concerns is of course how this A-C affects our operation as most of the Ultras have the GNS box. So, Sled, master of all things regulatory, with the GNS do you still file /L and just decline the DP or STAR if assigned? Also...

    Hotels at MDLR

    The problem with Casa de Campo is everthing is so spread out. While it might not be the most posh place on the island, I prefer the Hilton Coral Conoa. It is all inclusive and has shows every night, great food, nice beaches and pool area. About 30 minutes from the airport.

    Business Credit Cards with rewards

    We looked into this very thing a few months ago. We were told that "business cards" dont have points. Only personal cards have points. So the question is; Do you want to hold all the debt for your boss just so you can get the points? I was tempted to do it because of my situation, but...

    AC 90-100 Compiance (GNS-XLS)

    Now, I learn better by the "show and discuss" method better then the "read and understand" method. I am rereading the AC and I found this: (4) Whenever possible, RNAV routes should be extracted from the database in their entirety, rather than loading RNAV route waypoints from the database...

    AC 90-100 Compiance (GNS-XLS)

    After talking to Cessna, $97,000 to swap a GNS-XLS with a UNS-1ESP. Of course, that would be a brand new box. A used one might be available.

    Learjet Captain's Wanted

    So why is it that everyone blasts on charter operators like this? 5 days off? So what, it's charter. The regs only require 13 a quarter. If you dont like it you dont have to apply for the job. Unfortunately there are not 50,000 part 91 jobs out there paying 100 grand or better a year, so you...

    AC 90-100 Compiance (GNS-XLS)

    So what is the cost to pull out the GNS and install a UNS? Its gotta be around 60K at least.
