560XL info
 
Anyone got the memory items and limitations section is a good study format for the 560XL? I've found the AFM's limitations section on-line, but not the memory items... hoping to get a head start on training.

thanks all!

750, PM me with your email address and I will send you the FSI data sheet with all the stuff. 2 pages total. The Excel is an easy plane to fly so no worries

PM Sent!

Thanks :)

Did you get bumped from the Sovereign? I hear the XLS is a great airplane too.

No so much bumped as he said that's almost all of their slots now are in the 560XLs.. I'm not sure what's happening but in the end it's not a big deal, as long as I still have an APU! :D


sloglier, got it thanks again!

Well, that will also improve your chances of flying more regionally (West Coast) in the XLS. Obviously the Sovereign has longer legs and you probably would do more transcon.

Do you know if CS will be getting the newer XLS+ with Pro Line 21 up front? I presume you would get cross-trained in that too.

I agree and frankly that matters a lot to me more than fancy avionics or 10,000 more lbs of jet.. I think the QOL should be good.

They are getting them but I'm being told its' going to have it's own fleet.. I expect I'll sit on the XL until I upgrade to what ever I can hold..

Take a look at these two links:

A look at your new office:

JetPhotos.Net Photo » SP-KCS (CN: 560-5649) Jet Service Cessna 560XL Citation XLS by Dariusz Kunicki

And, in case you haven't seen this resource, a Flightaware link showing all airborne Citationshares (FIV) flights including XLs (C56X). You can click on the flight numbers and check out where they have been flying over the last few days:

FlightAware > Live Flight Tracker > Airborne Aircraft Fleet > Citationshares, LLC "Fivestar" (FIV)

You'll see quite a few FIV's flying during the weekends - I've counted 30+ aircraft at one time. Netjets is EJA, Flexjet is LXJ, Flight Options is OPT and Avantair is VNR. Have fun!

Amazing! Looks almost exactly like the Encore I used to fly at Swift, but thank God it has an APU!!! :D

Sweet, this is too cool! I've always wanted something like this for my wife to see where I am..
