I guess in US, and other areas, that mega rich guys with private jets treat them like cars. I wonder if they leave all the oversight to the CP and have blind faith. I wonder just how much involved they get in their own safety, or do they leave it to the 'chauffeur' to polish the vehicle, kick the tyres and stock the bar. The Caddi chauffeur doesn't take a driving test every year, but the car gets a once over. No doubt the a/c has a maintenance schedule, but I wonder who does the pilot checks in a small outfit.
In EU there are some mega-rich guys climbing on chartered private jets expecting the same level of operational safety, comfort and experience, or even higher, than in the 1st class cabin of their local national airline. I wonder if it's always true. Same with race jockeys climbing on small twins hopping from grass strip to grass strip on nasty days to bag 5 rides at 3 different courses on the sam day. Blind faith. Most of the time it works; but would you do it?
