The Book On Flying A Learjet: Joey Jet's Memories

Joseph Tiritilli, aka Joey Jet, exemplifies the success possible in America today by using ambition, a willingness to take risk, and a strong work ethic to make the most of available opportunities. Joey Jet came up the hard way in Totowa, New Jersey; fifteen miles from Manhattan, the heart of New York City. His grandfather a blacksmith in a Pennsylvania coal mine; his father an honest, hard working truck driver; and his mother a professional switchboard operator, Joey left school at sixteen. He became a three time small business owner/operator, soloed at Lincoln Park, New Jersey N07, and became a private pilot by age twenty-five. Moving to Deerfield Beach, Florida, Joey Jet continued learning to fly at Pompano Beach Airpark's Pompano Air Center, earning his Commercial Airplane license and becoming a Certified Flight Instructor under the tutelage of R. Dan Baker. Joey learned to fly Learjets when he was hired by Harvey N. Hop at Fort Lauderdale's Hop-A-Jet, Inc. Joey Jet has been a Learjet Captain flying the rich and famous throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean for more than twenty-five years.
