Hang on guys! (In the gender-neutral sense, of course, English :D ) Let's put the "simma down" light on.

Kerosene Snorter covered all these bases very early on. Can a Citation be "safely" flown single pilot by a qualified and competent pilot? Absolutely.

Is it "safer" to have two pilots in said Citation? Absolutely.

Problem solved. Hey, I found this great barbeque place near Love Field the other day... ;) TC

Aside from memory items and limitations, know your power settings. What's the setting for an ILS and non-precision approach? How about single engine?

Once your training is arranged you should be able to get a password and download Simuflite's manual for your airplane from their website. All of the maneuvers and systems are there, although I have found that a few of their instructors want things done a little differently. I have also found this very useful for a little studying while bored waiting for passengers...


Best of luck!

...and have fun -- it's an airplane!
 
I'm at Simuflite DFW right now. you want me to check anything out for you? I'm here 'till Thursday.
AA717: Where's the place? Want some company? Went to Boi Na Brazas last night...I'm still fulllllllllllll.....

My question is..am I gonna get my ass kicked in recurrent training since I never did an SIC initial??

I appreciate any help...thanks for your time!

Getting back to the original question with a variation. An operator is debating on sending me to the PIC or SIC recurrent course at FSI.

What is the difference between the two? How about differences between the one-time trip versus the 'carte blanc' program? Does FSI care about times or do they just fill in the boxes?

Systems, limits, v-speeds, emergencies, and so on seem to be the ground school. Am I missing anything?

What is the sim training? I've heard something about the 'Delta Windshear' scenario, has FSI created any new scenarios recently? Is sim anything worse than what two flight instructors do to each other regularly when they have spare time in the sim (inverted ILS, gear & flap failure, 80 knot windshear + turbulence on max, GS failure 300' from DH)?

Thanks!
