Not babysitting the fueler to make sure they put Prist in with the fuel

Could be, most 550's and 560's need prist, some such as the Bravo and Encore do not need it. Depends on which type the fueler was used to servicing.

One of my friends spoke with one of the pilots of the Citation before they left for Alaska. These guys have been flying that Citation for a long time, so who knows what happened. I would venture a guess at fuel starvation too, but very interested in finding the exact cause and a pilot interview to know just how they were able to get it down and get out alive. Those guys were lucky.
 
There was a citation that landed on I-40 in AZ in 2002. I think it was a fuel issue too, cant remember if they ran it dry

Believe me when I say... you don't want to know! ;)

How he's even been able to keep it up this long is beyond me!
 
The word around the airport is "icing," but I dont see how icing could have anything to do with it....
