THE BEST PILOT S,
TR AINED TO BE E XCEP TIONAL
NetJets pilots are the best of the best.
They have proven their skills in the toughest aviation
environments: military combat missions, senior
air force positions, and top commercial airlines.
And although all our pilots are first-class when they join us,
we turn them into world-class by nurturing their talent through
the most comprehensive training programme in the industry. In
fact, NetJets invests more in training than any other private jet
company, and more than many commercial airlines.
We have our own flight simulator in which we conduct NetJetsspecific pilot instructor training and assessments for new
captains, including unique exercises for mountain airports and
18
remote destinations. What’s more, our pilots only train for and fly
one single type of aircraft, so their responses are always confident
and intuitive.
We also insist on experience far beyond the regulatory minimum.
The legal requirement for a captain is 1,500 flying hours however,
a NetJets a captain must have at least 3,000. And while 195
flying hours qualifies for a First Officer, we insist on a full 1,500
hours.
It means that your NetJets flight always has two captain-standard
pilots in the cockpit. So you can relax knowing you’re in safe
hands.
