Business aircraft remanufacturer Nextant Aerospace and MRO sister company Constant Aviation, along with several vendors, are holding a Beechjet operator’s conference on Tuesday and Wednesday next week in Cleveland, Ohio. There is no charge to attend the conference, but seating is limited and those who wish to attend must RSVP.

“Our companies have the broadest experience base in the world with this aircraft and we are uniquely positioned to leverage this experience,” said Nextant executive vice president Jay Heublein. “The conference was created to benefit pilots, maintenance technicians and owner/operators of the BE40 airframe. The speakers will cover everything from advanced troubleshooting techniques to regulatory updates and the broad spectrum of product enhancements that are now available.”

Specifically, the conference will cover NextGen mandates, including ADS-B OUT, datalink and Fans, as well as the Rockwell Collins Pro Line 21 flight deck upgrade, lessons learned in engine overhaul, Beechjet systems troubleshooting strategies, re-engining options and in-flight connectivity. Also on the agenda are safety breakout sessions on: takeoff and before-landing briefings; decision-making and its effect on runway requirements; best practices for long-range flight planning; and understanding the anti-skid system, among others.
