Citation 500 Series - Cockpit Preflight Setup
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- This video explains the cockpit preflight inspection and setup prior to the first flight of the day. In this example, a Citation Ultra is used, although the same principles apply to all 500 series Citations, the Citation II, V, Ultra, and Encore. Check the systems and set the switches to Off, Auto, or Normal.
I’m preparing for a type rating. U Tube videos are awesome. Thank you.
Excellent! Glad you find them useful. What will you be flying? My advice to anyone getting typed is to learn what makes every annunciator light illuminate/extinguish and learn what happens when you flip each switch on the main left side panel (generators, ice protection, lights, etc). If you can do those two things, you've learned 90% of the knowledge needed for a type rating.
@@citationpro My type will be in the 560 Ultra. I am expecting to fly the Encore, but the company I will fly for have several other models. How did you get involved in making videos?
@@jamesconvery4793 That's great! The entire 500-series is a very well designed lineup. I'm a training captain and check airman for a company operating several of these aircraft. I began making videos to help new hires study before getting in the actual aircraft. I keep everything as anonymous as possible on RUclips because everyone's a critic these days. Maybe you got hired at my operation and neither of us knows it yet!

Good stuff. Pretty simple plane which usually means pretty reliable.
Maaaaan amazing videos thank you 🙏 sooo much for explaining all of this, you are the only person who I found on RUclips explaining the citation 500 series thank you
Thanks for watching! The lack of 500 series videos is exactly why I started putting these together.
@@citationpro I’m closing escrow in a citation in 2 weeks it will be my first jet entry level and I been looking on RUclips no luck I was sad but when I found your videos I was relieved 😌 please keep posted and show us more we all appreciate the share of aviation many thanks 🙏
@@ross100000 How's the plane??
@@lbowsk it’s amazing almost done with all garmin suite you must see it ! I have few issues still working on it :( but thanks for asking feel free to contact me to send you some pictures of the upgrades
Thankyou very good walkthrough sir!
Priceless. Thanks for sharing 🤙🏾
I'm glad you found it useful! Thanks for watching.
Excellent videos for those of us transitioning into turbines... Anything on the horizon for people moving from the right seat over to the left?
That's a great idea I haven't put much thought into. My videos have always been more technical in nature, whereas my new captain mentoring is more philosophical. It's a lot of reminding a pilot that the best captains are marked by those who say "no" rather than those who say "yes." To always have clear, documented, objective reasons why they will or won't do something. If they have to cancel or delay a flight, don't only say what they can't do, but also what they can do...give the passengers options for a new timetable or new destination. Operate every flight to the same standard no matter if it's an empty leg or not, start or end of a long duty day. Visualize if your actions will sound reasonable or ridiculous when the accident report is written about you. Those types of ideas. I'll see if anything can be put into video format without getting too boring.
Great Video, congratulations
