Podcasts about cirrus vision jet

Max talks about discuss the tragic crash of a Beechcraft B55 Baron, N73WA, that departed from Catalina Island in Southern California on October 8th. The flight, taken in dark night conditions, sadly resulted in the loss of all five onboard, including two Certified Flight Instructors and two student pilots. Somatogravic illusion—an effect where acceleration feels like a climb—likely played a role in this incident. This sensation can mislead pilots into pushing the nose down, risking a controlled descent into terrain, especially dangerous during night departures over unlit areas. Coincidentally, I flew over Catalina Island the next day in a Cirrus Vision Jet and observed the crash site. ADS-B data showed a gradual descent and accelerating airspeed. The episode underscores the importance of using instruments, especially at night, to avoid reliance on physical sensations alone. Remember to consider all available options in challenging situations and prioritize safety above convenience.

As 2021 comes to a close, it's a good time to reflect on the year that was.  As we made progress against Covid, the battle rages on.  Still, 2021 was a great year for General Aviation.  Many people have decided now is the time to start their aviation journey.  Flight Schools are extremely active and plane inventory & availability is tight as people start to check off bucket list items at a fast pace.  That not only goes for new pilots, but existing ones that are reaching new heights. That is the case for Bob Reynolds.  As you may recall, Bob joined us in the summer of 2020 after taking advantage of the airline slowdown by landing at every Bravo airport in the lower 48 (except Regan).  And he didn't stop there.  Since then, Bob earned his Cirrus Vision Jet type rating and has been building time via some great adventures.   Join us on this week's episode as Bob talks about his new aviation journey, including the costs, challenges, and the joy of following his dream.  Our dreams may be a bit different, but Bob sets the standard by which all of us can measure ourselves regardless of the destination. We'd love to hear your thoughts and questions.  Please share them with the rest of the SimpleFlight Facebook and Instagram community @simpleflightradio

Today, you are in for a treat! We are excited and honored to be speaking to Richard Kane, the CEO of VeriJet. Richard is also the CEO of the Inc. 500 company, Coastal Technologies Group.  Richard is an amazing individual who is changing the way people travel! In this episode, he shares his fascinating story, talks about what he is doing to revolutionize air travel, and shares his goals for the future. We hope you enjoy listening to our conversation with Richard today! Richard Kane's bio: Inc. 500 CEO and Company Founder  Board Member of SF, LF, NHSD, Space Canada Mining  Seven World Speed Records  Researcher in AI with patents in multiple verticals  CEO of VeriJet, where we are reinventing mobility How it all started Richard Kane started doing commercial computer work when he was fourteen or fifteen years old. At the age of seventeen, he started writing AI (artificial intelligence) programs. He was featured in the New York Times for inventing new types of security. The principal of his high school quit his job to market the software that Richard wrote, and then Richard became the school's first computer teacher. Ancient computers  When Richard started writing AI programs, he worked on machines that would barely be recognized as computers today. A very tight code was required to get any performance out of the eight-bit processors with little bits of memory.  Richard Kane's journey after high school The State University Systems in Florida bought the software that Richard wrote while in high school, and Richard was also doing tech support for one of the deans.  Faculty Scholars Program Richard joined a Faculty Scholars Program at the university. He was backed up by a team of professors who were, in turn, backed up by a team from Motorola. It was the best place in the US for computer education at the time. Richard was one of 100 students recruited from around the world.  Jumping two years Joining the program allowed Richard to jump two years of college. Personal Computers The program had the most amazing professors who created the PC, so Richard learned all there was to know about PCs.  Bigger computers Richard wanted to learn about bigger computers, so he went to work for a small phone company. A few of the people he had working for him there are still with him today, thirty years later!  A three-decade journey Richard's journey has happened over three decades and has been about how to route things more efficiently. His job at the phone company involved routing phone calls, which segued into routing airplanes. VeriJet was built on top of that.  Richard Kane and routing airplanes Richard Kane and one of his board members, also a pilot, thought that routing airplanes would have a more environmental and social impact, and would be more interesting than routing phone calls. Richard spent the next decade tackling environmental-impact and efficiency problems. He eventually fixed the problems and changed the industry, but they were still flying the wrong machines for what they wanted to achieve. The last decade Richard's last decade has been about software, solving the Traveling Salesman Problem, and making the industry run more smoothly. Changing the way people travel The SATS program and VeriJet are changing the way people travel. They are all about tripling the speed of short-haul travel and bringing it up to 300 miles per hour.  The Traveling Salesman Problem Solving the Traveling Salesman Problem is about optimizing the path of the traveling salesman to cover the most distance with the least traveling time and cost, as quickly and efficiently as possible. Quantum is a first glimpse of what might be a solution to the Traveling Salesman Problem. Three problem areas IBM has chosen three problem areas to showcase quantum. They are medicines discovery, catalyst discovery (for clean and unlimited energy), and the Traveling Salesman Problem.   Cirrus Vision Jet  Richard waited fifteen years for a Cirrus Vision Jet. Even when it came out, he waited for the second generation because it is made of carbon fiber so there is no metal fatigue. It was designed for short hops. It is extremely efficient, quiet, and safe. It can land itself, it has AI on board to help the pilot avoid problems, and it has a ballistic parachute that will lower the whole airplane to the ground if necessary. Two Collier Trophies The layered approach to safety has resulted in two Collier Trophies for the Vision Jet. One was for safety, the parachute, and its ability to land itself, and the other was for efficiency and design.  Cost efficiency Having only one engine and one pilot has dropped the cost of flying the Vision Jet. Its fuel efficiency has allowed them to drop the cost of private charter by about a third.  Their second fleet type  Their second fleet type is also fuel-efficient and also has a parachute. Their third fleet type Their third fleet type costs about $45 to fill up because it is all-electric. It has no carbon footprint, and takes off vertically, and flies horizontally. It is about a thousand times safer and much quieter than a helicopter. They will be flying electric aircraft around Florida and California by 2024. Sterilizing Richard's planes get sterilized between hops. In-flight, they have a medical-grade FDA-approved device that cleans the air.  A goal One of Richard's goals is to fly people in VTOL drones. XPRIZE Peter Diamandis wanted to commercialize space, so he decided to put out a ten million dollar XPRIZE for suborbital space flight. The team that won the ten million dollars ended up spending twenty-two million dollars to win the prize. Many of the other teams also came up with super-creative ideas on how to open up space. Carbon footprint The AI Richard developed for routing airplanes and using them more efficiently saves 200,000 pounds of carbon footprint every week. It does that with more efficient routing and use of the aircraft. The right tool VeriJet is the right tool for safe, efficient, and environmentally-friendly travel. Convenience  Ninety-eight percent of everyone in the US lives within twenty miles of one of Richard's 5,400 airports.

Send us an email If you have a question you'd like answered on the show, let listeners hear you ask the question, by recording your listener question using your phone. Summary183 Max talks about the Garmin G3000 and G5000 Glass Cockpits and the many aircraft they’re in from the F-5 fighter jet to the Cirrus Vision Jet. He also discusses differences from the G1000 and Perspective, and why the G3000 and G5000 are easier to use. He also talks about his new G3000 and G5000 book. Later, he interviews Nick Sinopoli, inventor of the ICARUS Devices Smart Hood for IFR training. Garmin G3000 and G5000 Glass Cockpit What do some fighter jets, light business jets, turboprops and even Joby Aviation’s eVTOL all have in common? They all use, or plan to use, the Garmin G3000 or G5000 glass cockpit! The Garmin G3000 and G5000 are used in twenty-three aircraft models, and manufacturers have announced plans to use them in a half dozen other models. Now there’s a new source of information for pilots flying these aircraft: Max Trescott's G3000 and G5000 Glass Cockpit Handbook! Max Trescott, the 2008 National Flight Instructor of the Year, uses a narrative approach to explaining the G3000 and G5000 from a pilot’s perspective in ways that both beginners and experts can understand. He starts by describing the hardware, including the displays and touchscreen controllers, and then describes how to use each function, including the radios, programming flight plans and instrument approaches, and using the autopilot and electronic checklists. He also teaches the data link weather products available through SiriusXM, ADS-B FIS-B weather, and Garmin Connext Weather. Throughout the book, you’ll find practical tips, gleaned from the industry’s most experienced glass cockpit instructors, on how to use different features. Pilots may want to keep a copy of the book in the cockpit and use the book’s detailed Index, so they can quickly look up how to use a feature. The book is 312 pages and includes 367 color images. Some of the G3000/G5000-equipped aircraft covered in the book include: • Cessna Citation M2, CJ3+, Sovereign+, Latitude, Longitude, Denali, and 10+ • Cirrus SF50 Vision Jet • Daher TBM 930 and TBM 940 • Embraer Phenom EV100 and 300E • Honda HA-420 HondaJet • Learjet 70, 75, and 75 Liberty • Piper M600 and M600 SLS • retrofitted Cessna Citation Excel and XLS • retrofitted Beechjet 400A and Hawker 400XP • retrofitted TacAir F-5 fighter jets News Stories New FAA AC on How to Conduct A Self Briefing Ipad Pilot News version of How to Conduct a Self Briefing Luscombe 8 back into production as an LSA United Airlines to open flight school, plans to increase diversity £50,000 prize for human powered cross-Channel race A380 caused conflicts after wrong turn during go-around UPS to buy eVTOL aircraft to speed up package delivery Wisk Aero accuses rival flying taxi firm of ‘brazen theft’ in lawsuit His Plane Crashed in the Amazon.

Many of us have flown in a jet, albeit in the passenger compartment or maybe in a flight simulator. A dream for some is to pilot a jet, and the process is not easy. It takes lots of skill, advanced training, and comprehensive review of systems and operations to fly them. San Carlos Flight Center invites experienced pilot Kyle Harmon, a new Cirrus Vision Jet owner and type-rating holder to describe the process he took to become certified to fly a this exciting new aircraft. In this seminar he will discuss the two week process he spent at Cirrus Vision Center in Knoxville, TN and the preparation needed to pass his SF50 type rating checkride to ATP standards. Then he will talk about the series of long cross-country flight he took to build time and competency in the aircraft and to relocated the aircraft back to its new home.Join us to learn about the operations of the first single engine light jet of its kind and the undertaking needed to fly it both locally, and transcontinentally. Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity.

Cirrus' sleek design and unique safety features (parachute included) have made the manufacturer a favorite with owner operators around the world. There's no surprise that the company's first jet-propelled aircraft is gaining a lot of attention. Learn what gives this single-engine jet unprecedented safety for single-pilot operations.

You’re lining up for takeoff on a cool, foggy morning. A recent frontal passage has left behind low ceilings, marginal visibility, and a thick cloud layer. If you were flying any other airplane, you probably would've canceled the flight. As an experienced pilot and airplane owner, you have confidence in yourself and your machine.Cleared for takeoff, you release the brakes and apply full power. The engines spool up quickly and evenly, pushing you ever-so-slightly into the seat. The throttles go all the way to the firewall without a second thought; no need to worry about over speeding or over-temping the engines thanks to the FADEC’s takeoff detent which automatically controls and monitors the engine’s output. With takeoff power set, acceleration is quite brisk. In just a few seconds, and only 3,000 feet of runway behind you, you reach rotation speed of 90 knots. Positive rate, gear up. At 400 feet, you bring the flaps up and bring the throttles into the climb power detent.In the blink of an eye, you’re in the clouds. It’s a fairly benign experience though thanks to the Mustang’s G1000 panel and GFC700 autopilot. Climbing out at 190 knots, you see climb rates close to 3,000 feet per minute. You could get even more with a slightly slower airspeed. In a matter of minutes, you’re through the thick cloud layer leaving you with blue skies and sunshine ahead. After a brief level off, you make it to your cruise altitude of FL350 in just 17 minutes. You could go higher, up to FL410, but today, the winds are more favorable at this altitude.With George doing the flying, you’re left to managing the airplane’s systems, supervising the automation, and talking to ATC. Handoffs come quickly with a cruise speed of 340kts true; that’s Mach 0.63, a pretty reasonable speed for a jet of this size, especially when you consider you’re burning about 85 gallons per hour.A typical flight for this airplane is about 500-700 nautical miles. A 600-mile flight would take you just shy of two hours with plenty of reserves. Useful load on the aircraft is 3,100 pounds, leaving you a full-fuel payload of about 700 pounds. That’s good for three average-size adults and their luggage. As with many general aviation airplanes, there’s always a tradeoff between payload and fuel.The top of descent comes quickly, and before you know it, it’s time to come down. Descents are easily managed thanks for the VNAV feature in the G1000 which can be set up for any arrival. In addition, the Mustang’s speed brakes can be deployed anytime to assist the airplane in getting down faster. The gear can be extended at a whopping 250 knots. With ADS-B, the Mustang can fly virtually any instrument approach with ease, including ILS and LPV. Thanks to the 3-axis GFC700 autopilot, the airplane can fly the approach down to minimums with a Vref approach speed of 90 knots, which is perfect whether you’re on an instrument approach or in the pattern.Touchdown is smooth and the airplane stops quickly. While there aren’t thrust reversers on the Mustang, the FADED keeps the engine idle RPM quite low, aiding in deceleration. Not to mention the speed brakes and big rig-powered wheel brakes. Landing performance is a generous 2,390 feet.That was a fun demo flight, but it’s time to make a decision. By now you're an experienced pilot and airplane owner. You've flown a lot of airplanes, and after years of flying pistons and a handful of turboprops, you’re ready for the speed, capability, and safety you can only get from a jet. But which one? There’s no one-size-fits-all solution; every airplane does some things well, and other things not-so-well.The Citation Mustang is a twin-engine, single-pilot certified, entry-level light jet built by Cessna Aircraft Company between 2006 and 2017. A total of 479 aircraft were produced with hundreds sold to owner/pilots. The Mustang boasts comfort, capability, performance, and efficiency while being a suitable next step for high-performance piston and turboprop owners. Equipped with the Garmin G1000 avionics package, you’ll feel right at home when sitting up front. And thanks to its fully automated FADEC-equipped powerplants, power management is as simple as it gets. Other features include club seating for up to five passengers, cruise speeds of 340 knots True, de-ice boots, speed brakes, dual-zone climate control, and a forward potty.While Mustang technically falls under the Very Light Jet category, thanks to its 8645-pound gross weight, Cessna simply refers to the Mustang as an entry-level jet. Certified under Part 23, Cessna has built the Mustang with the same safety standards as its larger aircraft with safety and redundancy in mind. However, unlike its bigger cousins, the Mustang was a clean-sheet design, leaving behind the more traditional looks of earlier Citation models such as the Citation I and even the later-model 525-series airplanes. The most noticeable differences can be seen thanks to its totally redesigned nose section, windscreen, and fuselage. The result is a stylish airplane with great ramp presence and a commanding look.At first glance, you may be surprised at just how large the Mustang is. If you're used to a cabin-class twin, a TBM, Meridian, or Eclipse Jet, you'll see a noticeable difference in size thanks to its thirteen and a half-foot T-tail and 43-foot wingspan. The Mustang sits tall on its wheels, too, but getting in and out is a breeze thanks to its 24-inch wide main cabin door and fold-down steps. If you're used to older Citation cabin doors, you'll be happy to find a completely redesigned cabin door handle. The new handle is more ergonomic and much easier to open than what you might be used to on legacy Citations. You’re welcomed into the cabin with a 2-step ladder that folds out from the doorway. Getting in and out is a breeze, even for older adults and young children. Once inside, you’ll probably notice a comfortably familiar automotive feel reminiscent of a high-end car. To the right, four leather seats in club configuration with automotive-style seatbelts and buckles.But the other end is where all the fun happens. A quick turn to the left and you’re in the cockpit. The first thing you’ll probably notice is the massive 15-inch multifunction display for the G1000 in perfect view of both pilots, complete with large, easy to reach hard keys and knobs. The second thing you’ll notice is a familiar flight control yoke setup rather than the bulky control columns found on larger aircraft. The yokes on this airplane are stylish, too.Each pilot gets a 12-inch Primary Flight Display and a simple, yet practical switch panel for controlling aircraft systems. Systems on this airplane are about as simple as it gets for an airplane of this caliber. Many are automated and require little attention from the pilot. The pressurization and anti-icing systems are computer-controlled from the G1000, automatically scheduling the wing and tail-mounted deice boots and holding the cabin altitude at 8,000’ in cruise—that’s an incredible 8.3psi!Other systems control switches are located below the primary and multi-function displays, all within easy reach from either side. A left-to-right flow pattern makes cockpit setup a breeze. On the left is your electrical controls, including battery and avionics, then over to engine controls such as ignition, boost pumps, and engine sync, then over to the environmental controls. Again, thanks to automation, many of these switches don’t even have to be turned on or off. Even fuel management is completely automatic. With the simple cockpit layout, you can go from cold cockpit to taxi out in less than 10 minutes.Engine start is also pretty easy. Simply turn on the 24-volt lead-acid battery, do a quick systems test, then push the left or right starter button. At 8-10% N2, introduce fuel by bringing the thrust lever out of cut-off and into the idle gate. From there, just monitor the parameters and let the FADEC do the rest. Even takeoff, climb, and cruise power is calculated automatically for you by the FADEC. Gone are the days of needing paper charts and tables to crunch power settings for ambient conditions. Simply bring the throttles to the desired detent and the FADEC does the rest.The hydraulic system on the Mustang more reminiscent of a Cessna 182 – only the brakes are hydraulically actuated through a master cylinder system found in most light singles. The speed brakes, landing gear, and flaps are actuated electrically through motors and power packs, again like a Cessna single. A backup nitrogen bottle will ensure the gear is down and locked in the event of a failure of the powerpack. The nitrogen also provides you with a means for braking should that system fail.Like many larger jets, the Mustang has a lot of redundancy, including an isolated and paralleled electrical system should you lose a generator. If you lose all electrical power, the back up battery will power essential avionics for 30 minutes. Fuel can be transferred from one wing tank to the other in the event of an engine failure.The cabin is comfortable, and fairly roomy considering the overall size of the airplane. Cabin volume is about 163 cubic feet. The cabin is also well insulated, dampening sound and keeping the noise level comfortable for normal conversation. The passenger compartment is basic, yet classy and comfortable. It can seat four passengers comfortably with a club-configuration. The two aft seats are a split bench with a shared armrest and cup holder. There is one fold-out table on each side and three windows as well as overhead reading lights. Thanks to the center drop aisle, the cabin has a height of just over 4.5 feet.Right now, there are 24 Citation Mustang aircraft for sale, ranging in price from $1.3-2.7M depending on condition and year. Perhaps the biggest variable in the sales price of the Mustang is engine time and whether the aircraft is on any maintenance programs. Unlike piston airplanes, the overhaul intervals on jet engines is mandatory, and without an engine maintenance program, the airplane’s value takes a hit anywhere between $200-500K. For the Pratt & Whitney PW615F engines installed on the Mustang, TBO is 3,500 hours, with a mid-time hot-section inspection required at 1,750 hours.In addition, airframe hours and scheduled inspections play a significant role in pricing. For instance, annual scheduled maintenance on the Mustang will cost about $17,000 a year. If the airplane hasn’t complied with yearly inspection requirement, expect a reduction in the sales price. Likewise, the airplane is due for several big inspections every 72 months, namely the Doc 11 and Doc 32. Between the two, these inspections will run about $15-20,000. Again, the sales price will reflect. You’ll need to consider AD and service bulletin compliance as well. Fortunately for the Mustang, there are really only two airworthiness directives to worry about, one for the brakes and the other for a fuel/oil heat exchanger on the engines. I’ve linked both in the show notes at AirplaneIntelPodcast.com.So if you see a Mustang on the market that looks underpriced, there’s probably a good reason for it and you should proceed with caution. Of course, I recommend enlisting the help of someone that specializes in jet-aircraft transactions to avoid some of the major pitfalls which we’ll hear more about shortly during our interview with Brad. I’m happy to discuss these issues with you, including maintenance and helping you research the market through our coaching program [LINK]In addition to maintenance, you’ll likely need to invest in a maintenance tracking software such as SierraTrack, Cescom, or CAMP. All of these software programs help you track scheduled maintenance and inspections as well as organize the maintenance records for the airplane. For more information on scheduled maintenance and inspections on jet aircraft, check out my recent AOPA article titled “The Maintenance Maze.” [LINKS] I’ve linked the article into the show notes.While the Mustang is an excellent contender, it’s not the only airplane in this class that many prospective owners consider. For instance, the TBM, Eclipse Jet, Phenom 100, and King Air 90 are all in relatively the same class of airplane. But each of these airplane does different things well. It all comes down to the mission the airplane will be flying most of the time. The TBM has almost identical performance to the Mustang, but is more suited for shorter trips, say 200-500 miles cruising in the mid-to-high twenties. The Eclipse Jet is a bit smaller and doesn’t have the same range or useful load; same is true with the Cirrus Vision Jet, which is also much slower. The King Air 90 is great for carrying a lot of people or cargo; it has excellent useful load and takeoff performance but is 100 knots slower than the Mustang. All factors to consider before making a purchase decision.
