Hi All,
First off thanks for any info anyone can offer. I am in an new Beechjet operation, stricly part 91, and am new to the type. I was wondering if anyone familiar with the beechjet could offer some insight...
1. The aircraft we fly has the 850 FMS. I have flown the newer 4200, similar to the 5000 in the newer Beechjets and other aircraft, where you could load a SID/STAR/APCH from a LSK prompt. On the 850, you have to type every fix on every SID/STAR chart, build it manually. Can anyone explain the full implications of this for RNAV SIDs/STARs with tighter RNP requirements? Or any other pertinent 850 "gotchas", or usefulness tips?
2. Can anyone share a detailed fuel planning matrix for fltplan.com? Would sure save some time in developing one myself, and probably eliminate some errors/guesswork.
3. If there are any other Beechjet rules of thumb, heads-ups, general operating tips, glass care tips, mx facility experiences, and/or anything else a Beechjet newbie might need to know, it would all be much appreciated....
Basically, I'm looking for any Beechjet wisdom you can share,
Thanks
