Default Jet Flying @ TMS - Ft. Worth, TX



Hey guys, here are some pics from our initial outtings at TMS with our newly chartered club, the "North Texas Jet Club, Inc." This was made possible by the great folks at TMS, the fantastic work of Ilona Maine at AMA and lots of input from the local jet bubbas. Anyone interested in joining can email me at [email protected] Enjoy!

Andy, it is located at I35-W about 120 miles south from you. It is only 8000ft x 3000.

Andy,

If that ain't big enough for you, Alliance Airport is right down the interstate about 2 miles south. Two 10,000+ ft Parallel runways. It's a nice airport, American and Fed-Ex have huge maintence facilitys there along with Bell-Textron and others too. If they can get MD-11's and 777's in and out, you shouldn't have too much trouble landing your Boomer there !!!!!!!

C.G. absolutely DOB 5.75, hold 3/4th up elev from the beginning of the T/O roll, you can't let it get any air moving over the surfaces without up because it glues the nose to the ground - seems like it doesn't matter at 5-10mph but it does! Just try it - Iknow you don't wanna - Ididn't either - but Buck made me - he was right - the nose rotates then it powers out very scale like
