Contract Pilot Services
Experienced, safety-focused pilot support for Citation 560XL-series aircraft and qualifying Part 91 operations.
CE-560XL Contract Pilot Services
Professional contract flying with a focus on the Cessna Citation 560XL series.
With an Airline Transport Pilot (ATP) certificate and a CE-560XL type rating, I offer contract pilot services centered on the Citation Excel, XLS, and XLS+ family, subject to aircraft-specific qualification, currency, and operator requirements. My approach emphasizes disciplined procedures, thorough preflight planning, crew coordination, and the high standards expected in business aviation.
Flight Deck Professionalism
Prepared, dependable support for scheduled trips, owner missions, and other qualifying flight operations, with a strong emphasis on standard operating procedures and risk management.
Aircraft & Mission Familiarity
Attention to aircraft configuration, avionics, performance planning, operational limitations, and the needs of each owner or operator.
Second-in-Command Support
Need an additional qualified pilot for a flight conducted under Part 91? I am available to discuss serving as a second-in-command (SIC) or additional crewmember in eligible single-pilot jets and other aircraft, where permitted by the aircraft's certification and operating requirements.
Whether a second pilot is required or requested for added operational support, each assignment is evaluated individually. Applicable type ratings, training, currency, operator procedures, insurance, and any other requirements must be satisfied before a flight is accepted.
Single-Engine & Multi-Engine Aircraft
Aircraft ownership should offer freedom and flexibility—even if you are not a pilot yourself. I also provide contract flying services for owners of qualifying single-engine and multi-engine airplanes, supporting personal and business travel where the aircraft, operation, and pilot qualifications permit.
Having flown more than two dozen aircraft makes and models, I bring broad experience with traditional flight instruments and modern glass-cockpit avionics. Every engagement begins with a review of the specific aircraft, its systems, mission profile, and operational requirements.
Owner & Business Travel
Discuss point-to-point travel and other owner-directed missions using your own aircraft.
Safety-First Planning
Weather assessment, aircraft performance, preflight preparation, and conservative operational decision-making tailored to the mission.
Let's Discuss Your Flight
To determine availability and suitability, please share the aircraft make, model, and variant; operating arrangement; departure and destination; expected dates; and whether you're seeking PIC or SIC support.
All services are subject to verification of applicable pilot qualifications, recent experience, aircraft-specific training and endorsements, operational authority, and insurance requirements. A pilot's qualifications alone do not establish that a particular operation may legally be conducted under Part 91; compensation and operational control must be evaluated for each engagement. No particular aircraft or trip is guaranteed.
