VFR single pilot in a Citation V jet.
Here a new video showing the cockpit procedures and the workload management when flying single pilot in a high performance business jet. This aircraft is not certified for single pilot operation, the FAA, however, grants a single pilot exemption to pilots who undergo a specific simulator training every 12 months.

I know the Piper Seneca has this rudder/aileron connection but have not known a Cessna to have this...only traditional rudder/nose gear connections.
Does it have a tiller control for sharp ground taxi/turns? Or is this reserved for much larger transport category jets?

No tiller here. This is for heavier aircraft. I have flown the Gulfstream I and II, both have a tiller. You use it to 80 Kts and then transition to rudder and yoke.

Excellent video, thanks for sharing Guido. Very informative, i'm an IFR pilot of a Piper Arrow and don't get to see the inside of planes like this!

It is my greatest pleasure, Nick!
If you count all the levers and switches in your Arrow you will see that there is not much more to do in a Citation jet. especially the engine management is much easier than in a piston engine.

Thanks Cpt. As always an enjoyable and informative ride.
Great Video Guido. I fly a CJ3 as pilot with a FO and it can get very busy at times.......especially in class B around NYC and ATL and others. The need for crosschecks and keeping all info current on each panel is even more important single pilot. And yes, I didn't hear a taxi clearance for the geese either. Must have been student pilots eager to get airborne. Very impressive video indeed. Thanks. I know it wasn't as easy as it looked. Blue Skies and Calm Winds my Friend.
you are correct on the rudder/aileron connection. Seems to be a "Cessna" thing. I see this in other Cessna too, like the C210 and 402.
Good point with the power settings. These are not FADEC engines, so we have to set power with altitude and temperature tables.
I will incorporate this.
Thanks for your comment.
