When it comes to flying a Citation CJ3+, there’s a lot more at stake than simply getting from one place to another. You need experience, precision, and, most importantly, trust.
At Professional Crew Services, we specialize in providing elite CJ3+ contract pilots who bring not just qualifications but a genuine understanding of what matters most to owners and operators—safety, discretion, flexibility, and a service mindset that makes every journey better.
Because at the end of the day, when you’re 40,000 feet in the air, it’s not just about the destination. It’s about the person in the cockpit.
Flying a CJ3+ isn’t like flying “just any light jet.”
The Citation CJ3+ is fast, efficient, and exceptionally capable, but it’s also highly specialized. To get the most out of it, you need a pilot who knows it inside and out. A certified CJ3+ pilot understands the unique performance capabilities, avionics, and operational nuances of this specific aircraft.
Without that specific experience, even small oversights can ripple into bigger issues. Things like optimizing climb profiles or managing fuel efficiency on longer legs aren’t just “nice to have” — they’re essential.
And it’s not just about technical skill. It’s about judgment. When weather shifts or ATC throws a curveball, you want someone who doesn’t just react by the book but thinks two moves ahead.
Hiring a Professional Crew Services CJ3+ contract pilot means you’re getting someone who’s been there, done that, and knows how to keep things smooth, safe, and simple, even when the unexpected happens.
At Professional Crew Services, we don’t just fill cockpits. We place professionals.
Every CJ3+ jet pilot we provide meets rigorous standards, including:
And beyond the basics? We hand-select pilots who have the right “fit” for your mission. That includes discretion, professionalism, adaptability, and the soft skills that make a good flight a great one.
All our pilots share one thing in common: a deep respect for the trust you’re placing in them.
We understand that every owner and operator has slightly different needs. That’s why Professional Crew Services offers flexible solutions for CJ3+ contract pilots.
