Citation cross-certification

[GravityHater]

Your certificate reads "CE-525S"
Which models of 'Citation' can you hop in and fly solo?

This site (a training company) says:

• Cessna Citation Jet CJ, Cessna Citation Jet CJ1, Cessna Ciation Jet CJ1+ (CE-525)
• Cessna Citation CJ2, Cessna Ciation Jet CJ2+ (CE-525A)
• Cessna Citation Jet CJ3 (CE-525B)
• Cessna Citation Jet CJ4 (CE-525C)
• Cessna Citation M2

This site (a training company) says:

• Cessna Citation Jet CJ, Cessna Citation Jet CJ1, Cessna Ciation Jet CJ1+ (CE-525)
• Cessna Citation CJ2, Cessna Ciation Jet CJ2+ (CE-525A)
• Cessna Citation Jet CJ3 (CE-525B)
• Cessna Citation Jet CJ4 (CE-525C)
• Cessna Citation M2

That is true, per the FAA, but insurance companies are going to have some more restrictions.

Definitely not the Citation 3.

Seems people have confusion between the CJ3 (CE-525B) and Citation 3 (CE-650). Different animals.

This site (a training company) says:

• Cessna Citation Jet CJ, Cessna Citation Jet CJ1, Cessna Ciation Jet CJ1+ (CE-525)
• Cessna Citation CJ2, Cessna Ciation Jet CJ2+ (CE-525A)
• Cessna Citation Jet CJ3 (CE-525B)
• Cessna Citation Jet CJ4 (CE-525C)
• Cessna Citation M2

Also add the CJ3+ (CE-525B) to this list.

As the other poster said, yes, do not confuse the CJ3 with a Citation III. Completely different animal and type. However, do watch the FBO's, they occasionally confuse the CJ3 with a Citation III and want higher ramp fees or a larger fuel upload.

AC 61-89 E Appendix 2. Apparently a CE-525 and CE-525S are different type ratings.

Hi Hugh,

The "S" denotes single pilot, same type, though.

What is a CE-500 and a CE-550?

 

[Hugh Johnson]

Hi Hugh,

The "S" denotes single pilot, same type, though.

Interesting. So a CE-525 type rating on your certificate has to have a"SIC required" endorsement?

 

[jetpilotjay]

Hi Hugh,

This is the exact verbiage on your certificate if you are not single pilot rated:

THIS CERTIFICATE IS SUBJECT TO PILOT-IN-COMMAND LIMITATION(S) FOR CE-525.
CE-525 SECOND IN COMMAND REQUIRED.
