From: any town as retired.
she has been promoted

It is worse, I suggest you search the TSA/DHS web site for the private flights to USA instructions, they have a full set of forms plus instructions.
Except: beg borrow steel, the customs and imigration forms from your nearest real airport.

Ensure the pre notice to the customs of arrival, 50k$ fine if missed.

Ensure all crew have crew visas, and pax have full visas.

Radiation scan of aircraft needed, so expect to empty, and shut down.

Ensure all pax and crew details forwarded as per above documentation.

Get Customs decal, from same web site. or at least proof of application, and payment.

In circuit at TEB, be prepared for TA/RA serious warnings.

Remember the 10,000 ft at ALB, so plan plenty of fuel reserves. 150Kts head winds this week.

RVSM approval, and documentation. SLIP procedures.

USA and Atlantic charts. Plotting Chart. Planning Chart.

A SNU crew member with the recent experience in the Jump seat is a benefit. PM if needed.

Thats the basics, done three trips in last month.

if you need to refuel in Canada, its mighty cold up there, so deice procedures reviewed.

Good luck, and have fun....glf
