THIS VIDEO CONTENT IS NOT TO BE USED FOR REAL WORLD FLIGHT TRAINING

The primary purpose of any FAAV videos is to enhance your flight simulator experience with a real Challenger 650 Business Jet Captain operating a desktop simulated aircraft. While I am using real world procedures (for the most part), including flight planning, flight procedures, etc. they should never be duplicated in real life.

While I am a real world pilot who operates this type of aircraft, this is purely for entertainment only.

Personal questions regarding my employment and or remuneration will not be answered. Thank you for your understanding
