jetAVIVA of US Announces VLJ Familiarization Program

Many pilots have waited for years for the chance to fly a very light jet… but now the wait is over.
The Jet Familiarization Training (JFT) course, offered by jetAVIVA, (Van Nuys, California, USA) allows pilots to gain experience in an Eclipse 500 VLJ, prepare for the manufacturer’s type rating program, and become a safer jet pilot to boot.
Three JFT course packages are offered, according to jetAVIVA. The Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced Courses consist of 10.5, 25, and 45 flight hours respectively.
Each package includes ground school, all necessary materials and manuals, cockpit procedures training, and flight training. Flight training includes general familiarization, glass cockpit introduction, high altitude procedures, emergency and abnormal procedures, takeoffs and landings, instrument approach procedures, and Scenario Based Training (SBT) missions including maximum range flights and high altitude airport flights.
“jetAVIVA’s JFT program is exactly what I needed/was looking for… a relaxed, yet focused approach to helping me get acclimated to flying a jet,” said Edwin Sahakian, owner of a Cirrus SR22 and Eclipse 500 position holder. “I’d recommend jetAVIVA’s JFT program to any and all future Eclipse 500 pilots.”
The ranks of jetAVIVA instructors include former airline Captains and line check airmen, an instructor who holds type ratings in a Cessna Citation Mustang, Eclipse 500, and Cessna CJ1, CJ2, and CJ3, and a former Eclipse Aviation Flight Test Engineer.
jetAVIVA was founded in February 2006 by former Eclipse Aviation salespeople, engineers, and product specialists to help Very Light Jet owners in the operation of their aircraft; offering owners opportunities to reduce their operational burden and substantially reduce the cost of ownership. With offices in Van Nuys, California and Albuquerque, New Mexico, jetAVIVA has built a loyal base of Clients who count on the company to help usher them into the world of jet ownership.
