“Master and generator switches on, fuel pump on, and rotate the ignition switch to the Start position. Soon comes the jet whine, and after setting up the Garmin G1000 it’s time to taxi. Takeoff is equally straightforward. Select 20 degrees of flap, push the thrust lever forward, rotate at 85 knots, and away you go. Judd and I saw initial climb rates in the area of 3,000 fpm at our maximum takeoff weight of 5,650 pounds. Passing through 10,000 feet, doing 250 KTAS, climb rate was still a healthy 2,300 fpm.”

Career Jet Training
- Airline Career Pilot Program — Adding D-JET Type Ratings in 2010!
Personal Jet Training
- Initial & Recurrent D-JET Training
- Operating Experience Provided in ATP’s Nationwide Network of CFIs and Training Centers
ATP will provide monitored D-JET operating experience nationwide in ATP and customer-owned aircraft. This operating experience will be provided on-demand and in a scheduled program. Pricing and program details will be introduced upon delivery of the first Diamond D-JETs. Once ATP has enough D-JETs on-line, ATP will extend the monitored D-JET operating experience program to pilots of other Personal Light Jets and Very Light Jets for insurance qualification. ATP is going to provide the least expensive operating experience (time building) for D-JET customers utilizing ATP’s insurance qualification programs.
ATP will provide D-JET initial training, recurrent training, and operating experience within our nationwide network of training centers. As ATP takes delivery of the first D-JET aircraft and Level-6 FTDs, ATP’s Diamond Factory Authorized D-JET Training Centers will open in 5 cities across the U.S.:
- Jacksonville—Located at Ponte Vedra Beach, home of the world-renowned TPC Sawgrass and the PGA Tour’s prestigious Players Championship.
- Dallas—Located at Arlington, home of both the new Dallas Cowboys Stadium and the Rangers Ballpark. The Dallas Cowboys stadium will be the largest stadium ever built and has been awarded the 2011 Superbowl.
- Atlanta
- Phoenix
- Las Vegas
