CE Type?

Yes, its official - Cessna announced it some months back.

CE-500 Type Rating; good for the Citation 500, 501, 550, 551 & 560. Cessna uses the names: Citation, Citation SP, V, Ultra, Encore & Bravo. All require the common CE-500 Type Rating and a Co-Pilot with at least a Private, Multi & Instrument.

A pilot holding a CE500 type rating with no limitations can fly a CE501 or CE551 without a copilot.

I have the CE-500 & CE-525S types. Recent recurrent on the 525 and lots of experience in both types. Neither, type ratings or experience, seem to be of much value to me now.
