Any advice for managing a light jet?
Suppose I were going to both manage and fly a light jet, Part 91, single pilot, in a medium-sized midwestern city...what would be appropriate compensation?
I've worked in general aviation a long time, owned my own piston single in the past, and operated similar jets for a Part 135 charter company for a couple years, so none of this should be terribly outside my skill set, but since I haven't formally "managed" a turbine aircraft I'm not entirely sure where to start.
It sounds like it isn't much different from what I did as an owner...clean it, coordinate maintenance with a shop, set up insurance, recurrent training, etc. Am I missing something? What are important details to talk about when negotiating the scope of job responsibilities?
