Beechcraft Premier | The fastest business JET

Beechcraft Premier I. The fastest single pilot light jet.
Premier jet was developed to be the next level of single pilot jets. It can cruise at speeds up to .8 Mach, which is 460 knots at altitude (530 mph or 850 km/h). Fastest in its class! It has a real stand up cabin, highest in its class, while being single pilot. During the development the project changed hands several times. Raytheon, Hawker and Beechcraft all owned the project at different times. The plane is powered by two Williams FJ-44-2A engines.
In the video we will try it out discussing pluses and minuses of ownership of such a jet.
I will help you chose the right airplane for your mission, train you or your crew and get your operation going.
LIFE IS SHORT. FLY A JET.

I just got my Premier IA PIC Type Rating with Single Pilot Endorsement from Flight Safety. The training was grueling but prepared me well for the checkride. I passed my check ride first out of 7 pilots in my class. This was my 5th Jet PIC Type rating. I think I’ll really enjoy flying this little hot rod.

To have the avionics of a heavy in the Premier is a luxury, the MD11 didn't have any of that, just a flight director.

It's very outdated tech. Then also if you pay for it those old school avionics carrying 70's tech are very expensive. Much more so then much more convenient Garmin.

Max, great video. Is there Premier still experiencing parts supply issues? Also, is the Collins avionics a significant disadvantage to Garmin or Eclipse panel?

[@MaxJetRev]

I mostly find used (serviceable / as removed / overhauled) parts for Premier to keep the cost under control. I hadn't had any issues with parts supply used or new. Collins PL21 sucks! It's old school design, without the mid for user experience or user interface. If something brakes, replacements are 2X to 10X the price of comparable Garmin or IS&S (Eclipse) unit.

Very nice jet and Beechcraft is top of the line. BUT, why is having such high speed so impressive? Seems like getting there in one piece and alive takes precedence.

[@DanFrederiksen]

The reason for no STC for a 650 could be that the avionics is a hornet's nest and it freaks out if anything is changed. Maybe it could get an STC for removing all the junk and putting in a new suite. But then something else would freak out. It's better if someone makes an actually good new plane. Clean intelligent design. It has a big belly fairing which makes the door mechanism more complex. I really don't like belly fairings. Also for a supposedly carbon fiber plane, its empty weight is 4ton. How is that even possible. I guess it's all that avionics junk. Eclipse is metal and it weighs 1.6ton.

[@MaxJetRev]

Premier is very badly engineered all around. Systems, cockpit ergonomics, pilot procedures, maintenance access and procedures are all very outdated and not thought out. It feels like as if the plane is incomplete. There is a reason why it is so low valued by the market!

[@n1454aj]

Thank you for the honest and excellent review of the pros and cons. One question I have is the MX history of these now legacy jets. I am sure parts are very expensive. Are they typically available to the point where owners don't have significant AOG episodes. The idiosyncrasies of the jet can be managed if the plane can be kept airworthy. What is the still air range with full fuel? This video was really worth watching.

[@MaxJetRev]

The range is 1300 nm with adequate reserve. Unfortunately, the way the Premier was designed makes maintenance labor - intensive and complicated. Simple tasks require more labor hours then similar tasks on other jets in class. Some parts are hard to come by, but mostly parts are available. What I would pay very close attention is where you do maintenance. I.e. factory service center is not the place to go if you'd like to keep the cost under control. You need a mechanic who's very patient and preferable has experience with type. Also a "small guy" will have better access to a lot of hard to reach areas in Premier.

[@Swaggerlot]

Premier, Cessna (small), Vision Jet Honda jet etc. etc. They are small shortish range aeroplanes that can be operated by fairly low hours private pilots within controllable risk parameters. The rest is wank.

I don't think there are many with CF fuselage bolted to aluminum wings with 4600 lbf thrust. Maybe none. But has a resemblance to a mini version of a Citation X.

It’s far slower than Citation X. I would say it’s direct competitor is CJ. CJ2 & HondaJet are also pretty close in terms of range and mission. Do you fly?

I meant the P1 has a slight resemblance to CX but realize the CX is way up the spectrum of aircraft in all respects. But im wondering if some of Burt Ruttan's design concepts have got into the P1 and made it fast for class. Wasnt he linked to Raytheon ? How about the Phenom 100, is that in the class and how does it compare? Im not a pilot, just an aviation observer with background in science and eng, but not in aeronautics. Have aviators in the family, bro has a C172, uncle flew over germany in Lancasters in WW2, cousin was a CFI but killed himself trying to be a stunt pilot, and had a bad trip to airshow one time with under trained pilot in IMC conditions. Realize i could have been a statistic. So am careful about what and who i fly with now. Thanks for the reply and your fine analysis.

@@robertrpenny I would say Phenom is more in a class with Mustang and Eclipse. Phenom has less range and less payload.

[@robertrpenny]

@@MaxJetRev Yes i looked at some specs and Phenom 100 is slower by about 50 kts so prob has the smaller PWC engines like Mustang. But looked at a spec sheet with P1A, CJ2 and CJ2+ which is a good comparison since all have MTOW of about 12500 lbs. So this shows that P1 must have a lower surface area, lift and drag wing which results in higher cruise speed than CJ's. CJ wing prob. has more surface area. lift and drag but results in higher ceiling and shorter takeoff roll by about 20%. Also shorter landing roll. So Beech designed for less drag and more speed. Cessna designed for more lift and ceiling, shorter takeoff and landing. P1 may be sportier for good pilots, CJ's prob easier to fly for less experienced pilots. Like most things in engineering, its all about trade offs.

@@MaxJetRev Forgot to say the above 3 planes all use Williams F44 variant engines so close to the same thrust.

I once heard parts are harder to get, true or false😊

[@MaxJetRev]

Some parts specific to Premier are hard to get, but most of the parts are readily available from Textron. Premier has other issues, more significant than parts availability.

[@nimain9964]

What are the other issues, do you recommend buying one?

[@gheorghii16]

Very informative video!

[@MaxJetRev]

Thank you! Next video is gonna be even more fun 😉

Premier is designed for people who know how to reduce their baggage. Switches take .05 seconds to throw, so the amount of those is not a concern. Manual setups keep you proficient. I don't rely on my plane to do all the math without checking it. It's very telling how you consider some extra safety tests 'ridiculous'. One word that really shouldn't be in aviation is 'shortcuts'. The description box tells a different story than the video. Seems like another person who is actually impressed by the plane wrote the description. Your 'review' is very biased because you are comparing everything to the jet you assume is perfect.

[@MaxJetRev]

The tests in Premier have nothing to do with safety. They are there, because of poor design and bureaucracy. Humans miss things, the easier the plane to fly the safer it is. Extra systems and extra switches are extra points of failure.

Nice run through of the Premier 1 procedures. All the best.

Thank you. Do you fly Premiers?

They sure are. But they are a totally different class. F-16 is even faster 😉
