We welcome our first corporate aviation employee, Embraer Phenom 300 pilot, Sean. We knew that corporate flying was different from the airlines but we were impressed with all the additional functions Sean does. This includes creating his own flight plans, doing the passenger safety briefing, fueling his own plane, and even serving cocktails when needed. He discusses the perks and challenges in his career and how he loves how unpredicatable his work day can be. Other topics:Airbus gets its first orders for the A350F freighter which will compete with the 777-200F The recent rise in passengers choosing to fly chartered jets over commercial We discuss a listener poll about whether you would choose First Class on a 777 or a chartered Phenom 300 to get from LAX to DFW Thanks for joining the conversation and stay aviationTOUGH. https://www.nexttripnetwork.com/

This week, we interview the owner of several popular light jets to learn to the pros and cons of jet ownership. He’ll share a ton of advice and compare features and benefits of some of today’s most popular private jets plus a lot more. If you’re thinking about flying or buying a jet, you won’t want to miss this! Check out the full show notes hereSubscribe to our YouTube ChannelAsk Us your QuestionsSupport Us on PatreonI’m very excited for today’s guest, Mark Hangen. Mark is an extremely interesting guy and experience jet pilot and owner. I think you’ll really enjoy our interview as well because we cover a lot of common questions and topics from folks looking to step up into their first jet. We will cover a lot of ground during our interview such as how to buy a light jet, including mission and market considerations, how to train and build time in a light jet to combat today’s tight insurance climate, the pros and cons of dry-leasing a jet rather than owning one outright, as well as managing and maintaining your new jet in the most cost-effective and efficient manner. We’ll also be comparing the features, performance, and mission profiles of the most popular light jets on the market – the Citation Mustang, 550, 560, and 525 Citation Jet series and why they remain competitive and desirable among owners and pilots despite increased competition from the Embraer Phenom, HondaJet, and Pilatus PC-24. Today, we’re speaking with Mark Hangen, the founder of an innovative commercial ice machine company based in Michigan called Easy Ice. Mark knows ice almost as much as he knows airplanes. Mark has flown and owned a wide variety of aircraft throughout his career, including piston singles, light twins, and large turboprops like the Turbine Commander. Mark’s not only the CEO of Easy Ice, but also its Chief Pilot. Today, Easy Ice operates multiple light jets including the Citation 500-series, Citation Mustang, and the Citation CJ2.

Bonjour et bienvenue dans le 73ème épisode de ce podcast ! Cette semaine, nous allons parler d’un sujet dont nous avons déjà parlé quelques fois sur le podcast : l’aviation d’affaire. Lors de l’épisode 9, nous avions parlé avec Nicolas de vols de transport d’organes et de rapatriement sanitaire et lors de l’épisode 53 nous avions parlé du métier de dispatcher dans ce segment de l’industrie avec Basile. Cette fois-ci, nous allons nous intéresser au métier de pilote avec notre invité Joel. Rubrique thématique Joel est un pilote professionnel ayant débuté en tant que pilote dans des sociétés d’avion taxi sur des multi-moteurs à piston dans un paysage aéronautique très différent de celui que nous connaissons aujourd’hui. Il a ensuite évolué vers des avions à turbo-réacteurs tels que les Bombardier Challenger et les Gulfstream. Après nous avoir détaillé son parcours, il nous décrira les différents types de sociétés qui exploitent des jets privés. Cela nous permettra de nous faire une meilleure idée des différents types d’opération qui existent avec leur lot de particularités. Ensuite, nous irons en détail sur les spécificités de son métier avec notamment les aspects de la relation avec la clientèle, le fonctionnement des plannings mais aussi la gestion des imprévus. Pour conclure, Joel proposera quelques conseils pour ceux qui seraient intéressés pour devenir pilote dans l’aviation d’affaires. Vidéo de la semaine La vidéo de la semaine est une vidéo proposée par la chaine Youtube Flight Chops. Steve propose le récit d’un vol entre le Canada et les Bahamas dans un magnifique Embraer Phenom 300. On peut y voir le magnifique cockpit à base de Garmin 3000 avec ses check-lists électroniques ainsi que les procédures de contrôle aérien avec les contrôleurs canadiens et américains. La vidéo se termine sur une magnifique approche à Nassau au dessus de l’eau turquoise.

On this episode of the Global Connected Aircraft Podcast, we caught up with Scott Borton, director of national air logistics for Quest Diagnostics, one of the leading medical lab services companies in the United States. In addition to the medical labs and patient locations managed by the company, Quest Diagnostics also operates a fleet of 25 total aircraft, including the Pilatus PC-12, Beech B58 Baron and Embraer Phenom 100. Right now, these aircraft are flying about 88 flights a day to 63 different locations across the U.S., transporting some very precious cargo, including COVID-19 specimens and samples. Their goal is to deliver collected samples to the company’s labs by 2 AM, so that diagnostics can be complete and results are ready by 8 AM the next morning. We also asked Scott about the logistics of supporting a 20-minute turnaround time for aircraft that make multiple stops throughout the day, and whether or not his aircraft feature any type of in-flight connectivity. Have suggestions or topics we should focus on in the next episode? Email the host, Woodrow Bellamy at wbellamy@accessintel.com, or drop him a line on Twitter @WbellamyIIIAC.
