    Sorry you feel that way. I am just stating the facts as a Single Pilot Operator. Not someone reading about things and making comments about things that they do not know first hand.

    Wrong again, as Chief Pilot and DO I am the one who contracts and sees that the bills are paid. Show me wear I said I wasn’t the one paying the bills and dealing with brokers. I deal with brokers and approve all the bills. Your crazy, just like your false insurance information.

    So true, I get plenty of work SP, also fly for two multi pilot 135 Companies, also ex FAA Inspector, DPE. What do you do? I’m not hiding under some fake name like fearless tower, just stating the facts. There is not a problem getting Single Pilot Insurance as you stated. My company carries...

    I have no attitude. It’s just a fact, if you don’t know what your talking about be quite and don’t give false information.. Insurance increases every year. Has nothing to do with single pilot, jet, turbo prop, etc. This guy is a quote SIC, obviously not been in the business very long.

    By regulation the standby gyro does have to be on the left hand side of the panel. Most of the old standby gyros in a a Citation of this age will give you a 2 hour back up supply of power. You could just look at this instrument, but from experience it’s just a lot easier to keep all of your...

    Not hard at all! Yes, my 10,000 hours is only Citation, plus 2,000 helicopter, plus 3,000 turbo prop, plus 1,500 seaplanes, plus retired FAA Inspector, means nothing. You are correct, most business owners who fly aircraft like this do not receive the kind of training that a professional pilot...

    N o one Nobody is not getting picked up Single Pilot. Who ever is giving you your information is full of crap. If you are trained, have been to Flight Safety and meet the requirements you will be insured. Your are a SIC, which means nothing. A SIC rating in only required if flying out of...

    When you loose any of the instruments on the pilots side, you do not scan back and forth from the pilots side to the co pilots side. You have a full panel of instruments on the co pilots side. You are taught to just look across the cockpit to fly. No difference than a 172 instructor in the...

    I have to disagree with you on the insurance issue. I have been flying Citations Single Pilot under a Single Pilot Exemption since 1982, with over 10,000 hours single pilot in Citations. I have never had a problem with insurance. Last month we just renewed the policy on our Citation Bravo. No...
