Ever wondered if you could pilot a private jet you chartered? Amalfi Jets CEO Kolin Jones sits down to discuss the realities of flight training, the safety protocols of chartering private aircraft, and the unique options for clients interested in gaining hands-on aviation experience.

The video opens with a conversation between an Amalfi Jets client and Kolin Jones, discussing the client's interest in chartering a Citation CJ3. The client asks about the possibility of piloting the aircraft himself while working on his private pilot license, with a specific interest in flying to San Diego. Kolin explains that for safety and operational reasons, clients are not permitted to pilot chartered aircraft. Instead, he outlines an alternative for those interested in aviation training.

Kolin suggests an arrangement where Amalfi Jets charters a flight to a specialized training facility in Nevada. Once there, the client can participate in a training course for the Citation CJ3, which can be completed within 48 hours. Following the instruction, the client is then able to charter a flight with Amalfi Jets to the training location and gain hands-on experience in the cockpit under the supervision of qualified pilots.
