The point of doing it on a corporate jet? Your on a long runway, light, by yourself, and you don't want to climb like an F16...sure I have done it in jets that will come off the ground in 1500 feet on a 10k runway. Now how many here fly by themselves with out pax back from maintenance?
Otherwise what's the point? You can't trend monitor your engines out to 30k like the airlines, a corporate jet engine is coming off in say 5k whether you baby it or not..so it's kinda stupid to be flying a 25 million dollar plane to the fence and pulling up because you think your saving on overhaul costs.
Honestly, this is the kinda crap that happens when you hire buddies and pals off the bottom of the resume pile...just puts lives at risk and our reputation suffers for it.
