I would have thought that whizzing around the country VFR in a
Citation, keeping a *very* sharp look out the window, requires quite a
lot more focus and is more dangerous then just filing and getting up
there in the FLs where you can stay above most of the weather and all
the people like me pottering around sight-seeing at 80 kts.

Or have I missed something?


When he needs to go somewhere, his pilots file and he rides right seat or in back...

He's a pilot, but I'm not sure how you would come up with "great
aviator". He holds a private VFR Citation rating and is a SIC private
pilot in the 727.


Actually, it's a 727, and there's no type required in the US for a right
seat.
He might be typed, but he doesn't need to be..


Which is exactly why I did not say he was SIC type rated.
