If you're flying a heavy sig kougar already all you're really doing with the habu is spending turbine money on an unnecessary jet. The kougar is a good transition already. I agree that turbine trainers don't really give you the jet feel, but a flash with a P70 would be great for a first jet without spending the money on edf. I started with glow ducted fans because turbines didn't exist. My first turbine "trainer" was a kangaroo which was a great airplane that still felt like a jet. Not floaty and easily forgiving like a reaction. Having said that a reaction 54 is a great all around airplane. I think edf is cool if you WANT to fly edf, but if turbines are where you want to be, edf is a waste of money IMO.
