AMC FCL 1.215:
Single pilot jets according to JAA:
Manufacturer A/C Certification License endorsement. .Aerospatiale MS760 Paris S760. .Cessna C501 C551 C501, 551
. .Likewise, under AMC FCL 1.225 - Multi Pilot Aircraft - the following Cessna types are found:
C500, C525, C550, CS550, C560 (f) C500/525/550/560
and
C650. .C750
(and more are included.)
All aircraft listed under AMC OPS 1.225 are Multi Pilot Aircraft and per certification can only be operated with TWO PILOTS - whether privately or commercially. Only ILLEGALLY can they be operated single pilot. Or does FAA maybe allow Multi Pilot Aircraft to be operated single pilot ?
Look in the aircraft papers - does it really say C550, or does it say C551 ? If it says C550, the minimum crew in limitations should be 2 pilots.
. .So, how can you ask for a C550 pilot for single pilot ops ? Might as well have said you needed a pilot for B744 single pilot ops !
