Continued from page 18.
• Unfailing commitment of time and money to regularly scheduled training. Training is part of the cost of ownership just like an oil change, and training events do not get pushed back or canceled because of business commitments;
• Extreme discipline to f ly to standards...and better;
• Complete f luency with the avionics: no fumbling with buttons, no “what is it doing now?” moments;
• Ability and willingness to fly very frequently, two or more days a week;
• A strong sense of personal commitment to flying excellence and an honest appraisal of their performance on every flight;
• Acceptance of flying as a second career, one that frankly you’re probably not yet as good at as the one that pays for your airplane.
Many pilots take a long time to realize these traits all apply to them. Generally, we come to that realization only by making mistakes—hopefully not too terrible—and coming away with another “I’ll never let that happen again” experience. If you move up too rapidly you’ll have to learn those lessons quickly from someone else, and severely limit what you let yourself do in the jet until you assimilate them.

Ulti- mately, safety and success depend more on your attitude and discipline applied to whatever type of airplane yo•u fly. Fast-track or step-up, you need extreme commitment, professionalism, and a will- ingness to admit you will never know it
