Re: ATF Procedures

I do see some operators will turn at 500ft and the odd ones that will turn at a 1000ft en route. I say the odd ones because i don't see too many other operators that actually turn at a 1000ft. we personally turn at a 1000ft departing enroute. no requirements to do so but as mentioned, AIM is suggest...

Re: performance questions on lear60

yes that is burn, for both low cruise and norm cruise

Re: Policy on flying 3 days a month outside of jazz

Thank you very much for the reply and sharing the information. very much appreciated.

I had the feeling it would be almost forbidden but sounds like as long as you follow the guidelines and obviously get approval then it should be ok.

Re: Policy on flying 3 days a month outside of jazz

I never claimed anywhere in my post that I was a Jazz employee.
which is the reason why I am asking, If I had access to the information I would have been more than happy to look it up myself.
anyhow,

maybe it is some sort of a big secret, non the less I will find out soon enough.

your T/O weight might be restricted for climb seg. Runway might be long enough for full weight up but your segment might restrict a lesser weight to meet the segments. all depends on obstacle. so if the 1400 m is ok you still need to check runway environment on dep end. clear way etc. I think for YT...
