Completing your Vision Jet type rating is an exciting milestone, but it’s only the beginning of becoming a confident and capable SF50 pilot.
Vision Jet Support offers personalized Supervised Operating Experience (SOE) and pilot mentoring designed around your aircraft, schedule, and flying goals.
Whether you’re completing your initial supervised operating experience or simply want another experienced Vision Jet pilot alongside you, our approach focuses on practical, real-world flying.
SF50 mentoring may include
- Supervised Operating Experience (SOE)
- Post-type-rating mentoring
- Cross-country flying experience
- Real-world IFR operations
- Flight planning and decision-making
- Aircraft systems and automation familiarization
- Single-pilot operational readiness
- Confidence building in challenging operating environments
Real trips, not repetitive training routes
SOE doesn’t have to mean flying the same pattern for 25 hours. Plan the flights you actually want to take, such as a family weekend, a business trip, or a run to a favorite destination, and log the experience along the way. Real weather, real airspace, and real decisions make the time more useful and a lot more enjoyable.
How SOE works for the SF50
If your SF50 type rating checkride was completed entirely in a simulator, your pilot certificate may carry a pilot-in-command limitation for the SF50. Supervised operating experience is how new Vision Jet pilots work through it: 25 hours of flight time in the SF50, flown while you perform the duties of pilot in command, with an SF50 type-rated pilot in command observing and attesting to each flight in your logbook. When the time is complete, you present the record to an examiner or FAA Flight Standards office to have the limitation removed.
Many insurers also set their own mentor or supervised-time requirements for new Vision Jet pilots. We’re happy to work with your broker so the same flights can serve both purposes where your policy allows.
