Overview

Cessna 525 Citation Single-pilot base training

The aim of the C525 SPO base training is to complete the last piece of your initial Cessna 525 type rating training. You can attend the Base Training with ProfiPilot Training as a part of an in-house initial type rating or just visit us for the purpose of your base training while you completed the simulator training elsewhere. The objective of C525 SPO base training is to confirm the "transfer of knowledge and skills" from the simulator to the real aircraft. Due to variety of the variants across the Cessna 525 series, the ProfiPilot Training is usually using the CJ1 or CJ4 for the base training.

The C525 SPO Base Training consists of following:

• Comprehensive briefing
• 6 take-offs and landings in C525 variant;

Training

During the training we will complete together the opened items of your training. The training will be commenced by comprehensive briefing focused on theoretical elements such as:

• Touch and go technique, bounced landing possibility
• Safety pilot duties
• Visual circuit
• Non-standard base procedures
• Eequired speeds and speed adjustments during the various phases of the flight
• Engine and thrust management and thrust setting during the various phases
• Using of the checklists during the various phases of the flights

Long briefing will be followed by actual landing training with C525 TRI.

Completion

 Once your C525 SPO base training is completed, your licence endorsement entry will be done by an National Aviation Authority. You need to bring the skill test form along with the typerating course completion certificate to your Authority and they will issue you a licence with endorsed C525 Single-pilot type rating. 

Next step will be to gain your supervised operational experience. This on-job training is assured by an operator and is usually called Line training or simply LIFUS which stands for Line Flying Under Supervision.
