Default RE: Jett engine, yes : which one ?

Thank you der Steuerman.

Actually, I guess I don't have the skills yet to get my hands on such fast aircraft. I'm still learning, and I don't want to go too fast .
However, your advice is interesting, especially the speed event in Germany. May perhaps pop out there, but not as a competitor maybe, I would be beat to death [sm=drowning.gif] ... Do you think a Jett .50 DD would be ridiculous ? Too much induced drag ?

Mike,

Thanks for your contribution, that was exactly the kind of information I was looking for ! Watched your videos and saw your daughter (or wife ?) breathing fresh methanol exhaust gases [:'(] ! Like the smell of castor oil in the evening, after a nice flying day [sm=RAINFRO.gif] !!! If I got it right, the supersport option is merely a shortened muffler ? Why isn't it stock ? I mean this option is a "must have" if it allows even a small RPM gain... What is the drawback ? A more touchy engine ?
