Flying in Heavy Rain: the Cessna Citation XL

[@marinegunner7481]

Excellent. Professional pilots. Doing it right. Well done guys!

Yes, excellent cockpit management.

Luv that jet!! Fly hi fly fast fly far, u are the true pro captain! Keep em coming..

[@donstor1]

All dat aviation. I love it and the smoothness in the cockpit with guys who are used to each other and make their flights enjoyable no matter what comes up. Thank you!!

[@kenpalmer1965]

What a rainstorm you guys flew through both in the way in and in the way out! I love the cockpit of that aircraft!

[@skyepilotte11]

Very nice cockpit management. Thx

[@ronmoore5827]

Always a pleasure to watch a professionally flown airplane. Really enjoy your videos, please keep em coming sir.

[@larrygarot8909]

I remember those long days. Good flight guys.

[@caseylenox9472]

High workload flight and a great copilot. Always enjoy your videos. I fly a C510 and this is always good review. Thanks

[@marksmith4582]

Nice IFR flight X2! I should have figured that the trip is one hour each way or an hour and a few minutes. Appreciate you sharing this! It’s nice that I’m getting notifications of new uploads! Safe and fun flying always! Mark in KAWG.

The flickering, is the difference in between the refreshing of the screen and the shutter of the camera.

Oh cool. I live in Indy. Interesting to see the area.

[@rizzodefrank]

Don’t be so aggressive on cancelling when things are marginal especially at a single runway uncontrolled airport never know when some idiot pulls out in front of you or a last second shear and now you are trying a go around in rain with low ceiling and possibly not being able to lane at your intended. It really sucks trying to get another popup ifr scudding around low from a busy controller.

[@chrisstromberg6527]

I agree, so what if it ties things up for another 2 mins until you’re safely on the ground. We have all been there waiting for the other guy to cancel his IFR clearance and we all understand why we have to wait. It’s just not worth it to cancel at night in marginal VFR conditions while airborne!

[@lndrvrus]

Excellent situational awareness and CRM. I appreciate a well sanitized cockpit during critical phases of flight.

[@barrylang6088]

I love your videos; they're always exciting and professional. However, your copilot needs to revise ATC readbacks. He's abbreviating way too much and didn't read back the takeoff clearance. Not good!

[@eps0m1066]

Definitely agree with that. I found his style of reading back very annoying, in fact his overall demeanour came across as far too relaxed and not professional. Kind of ruined the video, had to stop watching.

[@larryevans2806]

Great video!!

[@GainesMediaInc]

What a great thumbnail Jim!✅🙌💯😊

[@captmoonbeam]

Thanks. Which one? I'm doing a three thumbnail test. Maybe the plane on the ramp at night with lightning behind it?

[@GainesMediaInc]

​@@captmoonbeam The one from this video specifically...looks like kind of purple sky/scattered and broken.🙌

[@firepilot109]

Jim, how many current ratings do you hold? I know it takes up some time for each one and some of them can be pretty $$. Great video as always and thanks!

[@Gilles45]

P1D got in trouble with the FAA when he said he was clear of the runway when he was not completely clear...

[@infectdiseaseepidemiology2599]

As well he should have. He called it prematurely and it was videoed. “No harm, no foul” does not cut it when thinking about the Swiss Cheese Model of accident prevention and air safety.

[@seanthibodeault9030]

That bird almost ate it on the first takeoff

[@VebiSopi]

Why are you holding left aileron on take off? I thought I heard wind 340 @ 8?

[@StortWeldingCoLLC]

HELLO CAPT.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍

[@ThadClark-vu9cb]

Nice

[@rogerd777]

I understand that in that type of aircraft, the SIC/copilot does not have to be type rated on the Citation XL as the PIC does. I assume that he/she just needs to be a commercial pilot with a instrument and muli-engine rating?

[@n229dh6]

Great airmanship and CRM.

[@brianschaer]

Rain? OMG, not that!

[@DJ99777]

Gosh darn.

[@IrishDave]

Can I ask why FO didn't take any of the flying legs? Is It a matter of not being type rated in the plane?

[@randywilliams7281]

Oh wow how old is this video..I haven’t heard some of those ATC voices in years.

[@Matt-nr3qn]

Just curious, you are Part 91, obviously not new in the XL, why in the world would you not swap empty legs? Even if not swapping seats. Contractors benefit from stick time as well.

[@cornbread83]

What are your duty day maximums? As a non 121 pilot do you even have duty day maximum hours?

[@captmoonbeam]

When operating under part 91 there are no duty time limits. But, I do try to limit it to 14 hours.

[@slapshot1343]

can we get more WX radar footage? The onboard radar, not the nexrad please

[@12345fowler]

Next time you should read back take-off clearance properly ;-)

ashley my love.. hold on im teary eyed... dont say it... yes, next i wanna see your fav or worst enemy skin. ok, you asked for it

[@ibiro868]

Are you avoiding clouds on the climb because of ice?

[@captmoonbeam]

yes and also for a smoother ride. Also, by staying out of conditions that would require the anti-ice on, we can maintain a higher rate of climb.

What’s the super distracting warning message that popped up on both multi function displays right at touchdown? Excuse my likely incorrect terminology please. 😊. Seems like a horrible place/time for that visual distraction.

[@captmoonbeam]

We get a small yellow light on the warning panel for the Speed brakes extending. The six light at the very top are for the deployment of the thrust reversers

[@jpilot64]

@@captmoonbeam no, not them. Those annunciations make sense, it’s a wordy digital message on both multifunction displays right when you get to the threshold.

[@haydenm.3912]

@@jpilot64 That's the 750 asking if they'd like to suspend the procedure (the approach) or if they'd like to continue missed. You're right that it would be distracting, if you were reading it all the way through every time, but you really don't. The left side say "remain suspended" and the right says "activate missed". You press one and it sequences the whole GPS if need. It seems distracting but is actually very nice once you do it once or twice.

[@jpilot64]

@@haydenm.3912 thanks for that. On the surface it looks like it would get picked up by my peripheral vision…especially at night…and be a distraction.

[@haydenm.3912]

@@jpilot64 It definitely could be, I understand where you're coming from. Occasionally you also get traffic warnings on final for aircraft that are holding short of the runway. Those are also pretty distracting as well! I guess that's some of the cost of fancy new tech haha.

“We have traffic” off of the electronics inside a cloud isn’t valid for pilot maintained separation. Bad habit by Scott, methinks.

I used to think pilots were mostly open & honest people ...But I can tell you with certainty that might not be the reality anymore I worked for a Tri State Metro area FBO and some time back around 2004 I began to see on a regular basis what even I knew was just simply NOT possible "contrails" DO NOT FORM in the lower altitudes and most certainly do not stretch horizon to horizon and last for hours spreading out to consume a blue sky I'm sorry they just do NOT do that So I purchased the best I could afford Bushnell Binoculars with extreme zoom capability so I could document the aircraft responsible for the contrails and wouldn't you know it they are NOT Flight tracker capable These are NOT passenger aircraft that are destroying the sky the reason this bothers me so is the effects this is having on flight crew people who work in the air all day everyday coming down with debilitating sickness but when I tried talking to some pilots about this they literally Switched off and would not discuss anything other than to say they are contrails But when I mentioned todays modern Jet engines were High By pass turbo fans NOT capable of such contrails they walked away ...And this is the reason these programs have been allowed to continue for going on 30 yrs ...
