Lockheed JetStar is a tough airplane, and quite comfortable, but it will "suck your wallet dry" Not a fuel sipper with 4 engines!
-
What a well planned out landing! JD, what's your VSI on final?
-
US domestic carriers TWA and Eastern both used the JetStar during the seventies as pilot trainers-
-
Nice landing!
-
Beautiful aircraft and a great video. Jetstars are awesome! If you don't mind, I was wondering who you fly for?
-
The finest bizjets are generally quad-jets.

Good question. Probably in the neighborhood of 800 FPM. The autopilot was coupled and following the glideslope.

Thanks triple 7. Flying a G550 (right seat) to Dijon, France from KEGE in a week from now. Fun trip, still can't beat the 'ole J-Star for "ramp appeal" (She might be back in the air very soon from what I'm hearing.) Cross your fingers, pls.

Yup, I also flew a Dash 8 (S/N 5142)out of Michigan for a while.....I did an Atlantic Crossing in S/N 5206 (N329JS) many years ago. I'd like to read the pilot report you wrote.....Thanks

Thanks for the compliment folks. That plane is in immaculate condition. I'll be posting a couple more vids soon. I've got a ton of hours in all models of the Jetstar......GREAT flying machine.
