Citation X
Been a few days stuck in the crew roomdue to bad wx and the boys have discussed various topics from beer, women, sports, beer, ........beer. Well you get the drift.
The topic of the Citation X came up. So some questions generated as such.
Is it is squirrely as some people say on approach. Some describe it as a hot rod that can bite you. Can someone expand on that?
Is max reverse mandatory on landing, or are there charts for an idle reverse roll out. It also seems that the reversing buckets don't deploy till nose wheel touchdown...correct.
FL510 is listed as the max FL, is thatan achievable level, is there any point getting up that high, since the flight planning guide charts only go to FL490.
Does anyone know the longest leg ever done in a X, obviously with a tailwind.
680lbs of fuel is listed as the VFR fuel reserve. If you were landing right at that amount, and a go around was required, how much would 1 visual circuit consume. Figure on zero or very little paylod.
I could dig out most of the answers if I had a copy of the POH. Does anyone have a PDF version, preferably for the winglet version. Done want to spend several hundred + $ to get one from Cessna.
Cheers all.
