Here a new video showing the cockpit procedures and the workload management when flying single pilot in a high performance business jet. This aircraft is not certified for single pilot operation, the FAA, however, grants a single pilot exemption to pilots who undergo a specific simulator training every 12 months.

Hi Spencer, you are correct on the rudder/aileron connection. Seems to be a "Cessna" thing. I see this in other Cessna too, like the C210 and 402. Good point with the power settings. These are not FADEC engines, so we have to set power with altitude and temperature tables. I will incorporate this. Thanks for your comment. Happy Landings, Guido
No tiller here. This is for heavier aircraft. I have flown the Gulfstream I and II, both have a tiller. You use it to 80 Kts and then transition to rudder and yoke. Happy Landings, Guido
It is my greatest pleasure, Nick! If you count all the levers and switches in your Arrow you will see that there is not much more to do in a Citation jet. especially the engine management is much easier than in a piston engine. Happy Landings, Guido
Great Video Guido. I fly a CJ3 as pilot with a FO and it can get very busy at times.......especially in class B around NYC and ATL and others. The need for crosschecks and keeping all info current on each panel is even more important single pilot. And yes, I didn't hear a taxi clearance for the geese either. Must have been student pilots eager to get airborne. Very impressive video indeed. Thanks. I know it wasn't as easy as it looked. Blue Skies and Calm Winds my Friend.
Fun to watch but i don't find the solo pilot aspect all that alarming. Just consider the young officer in his/her early twenties who is airborne right now in a T-38. More alarming will be the day when no pilot will be on board. Oh shoot, there I go throwing a whole new spin on this.
Great video, as always. I was on my 2nd solo XC last night, and the workload management thing applied to me even in a Piper Warrior. My CFI puts emphasis on staying ahead of the plane, and your videos reinforce it for me.
I was talking to Class C approach controller, called that I had my non-controlled destination in sight (just outside C airspace). Went through my landing checklist at that time. Expecting freq change, there were skydivers jumping over my destination and 3 other planes approaching to land. I was pretty busy but the controller kept an eye on everything. Once the jumpers were clear, I ended up 1st to enter the pattern and was really glad I was already set up for landing.
Thanks Jim. Congrats on the second solo cross country! Some principles apply in any airplane and you can basically kill your self in any airplane too. Your CFI is right. Never fly through a pocket of air that you have not flown through before "mentally". Stay ahead, think ahead. The workload in piston engine airplanes is very high too. Thanks again & happy landings, Guido
Do not land short of any threshold. Keep your hand on the yoke when thrust reversers are deployed. ( slight forward pressure.) Even when taxing. Always stay on the center of the taxi line.
Thank you Ben for your friendly comment. It is a great pleasure. If you guy continue watching my videos, I will continue to make them. Happy Landings, Guido
I too am a big fan of your videos, but really like this one because you are explaining more of what you're doing and why you're doing it. You seem more relaxed in this video...maybe it's becasue you're in "jeans and T-shirt" mode. Great videos and please keep them coming
BTW, what kind of audio cord are you using to record the intercom and ATC audio? I just purchased a GoPro Hero 3 and want to start recording some of my flights as well.
Thanks Phil. And unfortunately I have to say the cockpit pretty small. The aircraft is built for passenger comfort, not so much for pilot's comfort... Happy Landings, Guido
Yes, stringing cables and splitting coms to capture audio for posting to youtube is very professional. Doing it while narrating for the youtube audience of flightsim pilots, flying a 16,000lb jet, single pilot is extremely professional.
Because one is a "professional" does not automatically translate to a guarantee that every thought or action will be professional. Your thinking is flawed.
Disagree, the flaw is in the use of the word 'professional': using it as a title vs as a descriptor for a standard of behavior. T'was in response to perceived sarcasm on the part of Manboi. We are in agreement.
Manboi..... Although I'm not exactly sure what you mean by your comment....I respect your opinion nevertheless. And you are certainly entitled to it as well......what I can tell you is this.......at any one time there are about 200 of us that fly these airplanes single pilot. Regarding the CE 500 series, as Guido points out, these airplanes require a single pilot exemption. For the CJ/525 series, this is a little different as it requires a C525 "S" type rating.. I have flown Citations single pilot for over 30 years and almost 10,000 hrs now..and without hesitation I can tell you that Guido is a total professional..I don't know him and have never met him....but....I feel I am qualified to make that statement.......We are required to do everything a two pilot crew would do during initial and recurrent training..and...take a pass/fail check ride at the end... On the surface, I can see why you may think that what we do as single pilots in these airplanes is an anomaly, but I can assure you that we earn our "stripes" to do what we do......and again....I completely respect your opinion....you are welcome to go on a trip with me any time......cheers to all!!...Bob
Thank you Bob. I hold a C525 (S) rating too, flown the CJ2+ Both the C525 and the CE560 are easy to fly. The better automation and modern instrumentation makes the 525 may be a bit easier. FADEC also takes some workload off. We do the single pilot exemption at CAE Simuflite. Pretty tough but ok for an experienced pilot who is humble and willing to learn. Happy Landings, Guido
Here's what I mean... Crashes in single pilot Citations are more than double the rate in professionally crewed Citations. The 560, in my hand, is a handful if anything goes sideways and Guido even said he doesn't deploy speed brakes since there's so much going on at touchdown. On final, typically over populated areas, there is too much to go wrong and we should be more responsible to innocent people in the plane, on the ground and to our aviation reputation as a whole. I have owned and flown the Ultra, Bravo and XLS+.
Can you? Yes. Should you? No. I repeat... sooner or later, asking for trouble.
There are about 3,500 non CJ 500 series (500,501,550,551,560) and about 200 of you are flying SP. Some of those, most of the ones I know, are flying with a safety pilot. The rest of you (-2%) guys must be really smart and have something over the rest of us. I decline your invitation.
Bob, when I am single pilot, I often do not deploy them. Too much going on after touch down... These are not as big as lift spoilers of larger jets like the Gulfstream. Happy Landings, Guido
Guido: Great video; please add me to your list of watchers, do you have a website showing your video(s). If your ever in LAX, or better yet, KCPM, give me a holler, It would be my privilege to fly with you. Me, little ol 1959 C172 owner/pilot. Thanks again for the video. johnatti2000@yahoo.com
Mr. Guido, very impressive, single pilot vfr C525. Me, C172 (1959), if you are ever in the LAX area, give a holler, I'm just minutes away at KCPM and if available would really appreciate observing you in person. Do you have a website showing other times flying the Citation? Again, it was a pleasure watching your video. Kindest regards: John Hensley
Does is aircraft have a rudder/aileron interconnect? I noticed the yoke moving as you taxi. Is there tiller steering or only nose gear rudder pedal linkage?
Also, wouldn't be possible to include power setting at various points such as initial cruise, decent, and approach. I heard flight idle on short final which was neat. Very short approach. Great job!
Excellent video, as always, Guido. I have uploaded many of your videos and all are very enjoyable. I was a UK licensed Engineer for over 45 years(now happily retired) but follow sites like yours to keep the memories alive. Happy Flying John
Really interesting and informing video. Good comments about staying ahead of the airplane. I remember my first trip in a high performance single. I was working. One comment. Considering a VFR flight, I did not see one look out the left window other the checking for inbound traffic while taking the active runway for departure. Considering you we're canted toward the center of the airplane, I would have thought the look out the window would have been more exaggerated. Just good peripheral vision?
Terrific video; great footage for an Aerospace Engineer who never seems to have the money or the time to fly. I'd love to put together a simulator that would duplicate what I just watched.
Thank you very much for your friendly comment. It is really unfortunate the the cost for flying has gone up so much in the past 15 years. Happy Landings, Guido
Thanks for your comment Fred. As mentioned earlier, the video is cut, so not any time I have looked out of the window can be seen. It is always a compromise between "inside / outside" the cockpit. A classic shortfall of single pilot flying. At 02:40 you see me checking the approach path before entering the active runway. The TCAS II helps a lot too but is no substitute for a pair of eyes... Thanks for watching my videos & Happy Landings, Guido
I've watched a lot of your videos and I absolutely love them! There is very few commercial pilots with YouTube channels out there that upload such high quality and informative videos. They are especially fun for me not only because I'm a student pilot but because I live at waypoint DNNIS (near KLGA) so I get see my backyard at times. Maybe I'll my rooftop if you ever film the Expressway Visual Rwy 31 into KLGA ;-)
I understand your concerns. We have several jet operators at KDXR and we all operate since decades here, very safely. All within stabilized approach criteria and very well within the "book numbers" for the airplanes. These are "slow" Citation Jets, with landings speeds lower than a King Air. If there is any doubt or concern e.g. for weather, we land at nearby big airports like KHPN. Thanks for watching my videos & happy landings, Guido
Thank you very much, John Please also keep professional courtesy to fellow pilots who may have different opinions. This is how we exchange thoughts and learn more to become better, safer pilots. Thank you for watching my videos & happy Landings, Guido
Great video, but it is scary to think people may emulate some of the things the pilot does. Going through a pre-takeoff checklist while taxiing, especially single pilot, is dangerous. Also, I don't think it is a good idea to post a video of an intentional FAR violation. The flight is apparently departing from Runway 29 Chester County airport in PA, KMQS. This runway requires LEFT turns, yet this pilot made a right turnout on departure. Best to file a NASA form if it's not too late!
There's always an 'expert' who knows every detail of how to fly. Pleas go back to your books and simulator. You obviously don't know all the details of that particular flight. Jeeez.
You mean it's "non-towered." FARs require LEFT turns in the traffic pattern unless there is a published Right Traffic for a given runway. At a towered airport, the controller can give you permission to make right turns, at a non-towered airport, you must depart straight out or turn left.
Do you mean that my comment is invalid or do you just like making meaningless remarks? The departure should have been straight out or a left turn. Not a right turn. Student pilots may be viewing these videos and think it is OK to do what they want instead of following proper procedure. Calling the FAA would not serve any purpose. My comment on filing a NASA report (if you don't know what that is, please google it) was based on the possibility that the FAA could see the video, or some misguided reader would forward the info to the FAA, and cause Guido some problems.
Your comment that there is 0 traffic at that airport is incorrect. If that were true, Guido would not have taken off. In fact, that airport has an average of 142 operations per day.
Airports with very little traffic can elicit complacency on the part of pilots who expect that there will be no traffic. Although that is sometimes the case, the rules are in place to prevent planes from hitting each other. Even with very little traffic, that is a possibility.
If you have any meaningful insights to add, please feel free. If you think it's OK to turn right at an airport with left traffic, please enlighten me with your reasoning.
David, your point is well taken and your comments are much appreciated. Please stay tuned and watch future videos of me. You will see that your concerns and comments are not ignored. Happy landings, Guido
It seems to me that there are some people in this world who, when they see somebody who's obviously very good at what they do, try to find any little thing wrong in order to make that person look bad. It must make them feel good, I don't know why it would.
I might have a meaningful insight for you....can you please quote the FAR that requires left hand turns? I am almost possitive (99.999%) that it is not.I know that it is mentioned in the AIM, but that is not regulatory.
Great video Guido. I'm single pilot typed in a CJ2. Other than the TRs there wasn't a whole lot that was different from what I do. Don't you wish you had FADEC? I do!
Thank you! It amazes me that you need a separate type rating for the C560. They are very similar. I hold the C525 (S) and the C500. A lot of money. Happy Landings, Guido
This is a VFR flight in a single pilot jet. Why then do we see so much head down time in climb out and descent? Running checklists when the aircraft is moving and having non essential verbal time spent on narrating is stupid.
Your comments are much appreciated, Walter. The video is edited and cut in length (would be a bit long and boring otherwise). So you might not see that I try to look out as much as possible and also use ATC as much as possible (traffic advisory). The TCAS II with traffic resolution / advisory a great tool too. I am always very alert below 10,000ft and especially when approaching airports. The narration is not a distraction at all to me. We do a lot of mentoring for new First Officers and in comparison to single pilot flying this rather might be seen as a distraction. Single pilot flying is always subject to controversial discussions. As an example, during the take off run I have no option other than "divide" my attention inside / outside the cockpit as I have to monitor the engine gauges at any time to make split second take off reject decisions. We go through a very stringent simulator training every 12 months for the single pilot endorsement on the Citation V jet. Thanks again for your watching my videos and for your comments, Happy Landings, Guido
