"...was feeling like we still had a window open." and I burst out laughing, as did you pilot. Damn, I hate being at 23000 with a window open.

As a retired corporate pilot whenever I watch one of your videos I find myself missing that life. But, with times being what they are right now, I’m actually glad I retired when I did. If you believe that I have a nice little bridge between Brooklyn and Manhattan I can let you have for a song. Happy flying!!

My first time ever using an ATM machine. I can still feel the despair from that. 😂 Was a once in a lifetime adventure I'll never forget, though! Thanks for sharing, Jim.

Ruth Chris or Maestros is wayyy better IMHO.

@jimdougherty2758 4 года назад

Does leaving the APU on until well after takeoff and starting it again on approach allow you to offload the main engines a little? Do you shed more than electrical load to the APU? Curious minds want to know. Thanks.

@jeffsnaperealtor3050 4 года назад

Yes, the APU generator shares the load with the right engine generator, Also you avoid shedding the AUX Busses (basically everything in the cabin) in the event of an engine driven generator failure. The APU is also an additional source of intermediate pressure bleed air, so we get better takeoff and climb performance since we don't have to use the engine bleeds to run the air conditioning and pressurization. Also, (God Forbid) if we had a double flameout we can use the APU bleed air to energize the Air Turbine Starters since no engine bleeds would be available in this case.

I don't fly the Excel with passengers on it, thats not because I'm about to embarrass myself but because I care about my customers. Jim is very experienced in large aircraft and I have some numbers in Citation too products but this isn't a macho situation, it's about recency as well as experience. We're providing a service to our clients and their comfort and safety is paramount. Jim handles the Challenger expertly and, not only would I trust my family with him, I look forward to him posting a video of an empty leg with Jim driving the CL300!

@AirspotterUK 4 года назад

@jeffsnaperealtor3050 4 года назад

Great question Neil, Basically the aircraft prohibits use of takeoff power for more than 5 minutes, so the checklist is quite keen on it: That being said use of 'full' climb power is inappropriate in many operations as it gives wholly inappropriately high speeds and/or rates of climb. Maximum climb power is actually cleared for use throughout the flight at operational discretion.

I'm not a pilot. It looks like everything in this jet could be handled by a single pilot. What are the advantages of using two pilots for this jet? Thank you.

@jeffsnaperealtor3050 4 года назад

Another great question. In short: It's big! Maybe you could fly it single crew, but you can barely see the on- side wingtip let alone the opposite one. It's a long range aircraft and imagine your trouble if you had to fight a fire down the back?! These guys paid out the wazoo for a jet with 2 Engines, 3, Hydraulic systems, 3 Generators etc, etc, so why would you fly it with one Central Nervous System, One Respiratory system etc etc?
