![]() "Mike Rapoport" wrote in message news ![]() Not even close to the best. I have a friend with part of one (Netjets share) . With the two pilots and two average size passengers and a Labrador it can't go from San Diego to Sun Valley without refueling in a modest headwind if its warm. Wrong. The problem is that at FL350 it will only go about 350kts and even a modest headwind at that altitude is well over 100kts. At FL350, it does 371 to 385, depending on weight. I forget which engines the CJ1 uses but the engines in the CitationJet cycled out pretty fast so if you weren't flying long legs the engines would cycle out well before overhaul. Geez...since you're so omniscient, I think you'd know that data. The engines in the CJ/CJ1 are VERY different from the old 500 series. http://www.williams-int.com/product/1a.htm Piaggio and Premier are much better. One a vibrator, the other isn't SP certified. Geez!!! |
