Congratulations John! I think you will really enjoy your new jet-bird.

I will say, the hand writing was on the wall. Whenever I made the decision to make the move and "passively" look around, take my time, make sure it's the right one, maybe next year etc., I would be stuffing a new airplane in my hangar in 2-3 months. :D

Thanks Tom! I'm a slow learner but I eventually come around. I moved comparatively slow on this upgrade (took better than a year). As a part of my research, I got two type ratings, I ran lots of numbers, I considered lots of airplanes and arrangements and I shopped for a number of months for the right airplane. Unlike other purchases, I didn't want a fixer-upper.

If you want access to the BeechTalk-equivalent for the Citation series of aircraft, you need to join CJP:
https://www.citationjetpilots.com

Considering buying one? The 425+ owner/pilots that are CJP-members can give you the real scoop on the pros and cons of Citation operations.

And if you already own a Citation, you are actually losing money by not being a member of CJP.

Oh.. and their events are amazing. No one throws a party like CJP.

Went to see it this week and it looked great. Moving forward with a purchasing agreement and should close late September. I'll share pics and details when we remove all the contingencies.
