In another life, I was a pilot, one of those superhumans who has the ability to leave the ground and fly around the sky, then return to earth to fly again. One of the airplanes I flew in my flying career was the Cessna 560 Citation V. In fact, my employer at the time was one of the first to operate the zippy little jets. I flew them for two or three years then transferred to another location and flew another version of Cessna’s famous 500 series Citation, the CE 550 Citation II. Before I went into the V, I flew its predecessor, the CE 550/SII, the Citation SII. Later on in my flying career, I moved into the British-designed Hawker 700 and 800 and 800XP. For some eighteen months, I worked as a simulator/ground instructor on Hawkers at the Flight Safety Houston Center in Houston. After leaving Flight Safety, I flew contract, including Citation Vs. Consequently, I have more than a passing interest in yesterday’s mysterious crash of a Citation V in the Virginia mountains (not far from where I lived in Virginia when I was working for a charter operator in Lynchburg.)
