Well, I just got through reading everything. WOW. I just love to see people who actually care about the beginners. I just got started in RC planes (regular flying ones that is.....not jets) about 2 years ago. I'm now 14, not at all the kind of person that would have a job yet to be able to save the amount of money to buy a good, inexpensive jet let alone a helicopter (that is what I will be getting into next w/ some money that I save up.) Well, I just got home from a Airshow on Saturday, and I saw a Tubine F-14 Tomcat flying. WOW. What a sight. All the equipment that the guy had. I mean........WOAAAAA........Propane, um.....fire extinguisher.....the works.......I know that you just couldn't go out, buy a turbine jet, and just go and fly it at your field. Don't you have to have some kind of ground schooling or training on how to exactly start the turbines, and safety. This safety would be a major issue. That is what the man on the intercom said while the owner of the jet was getting it started (about the ground schooling especially for the turbine). Just wanted to know what kind of liscenses that you have to have to start flying the jets w/ turbies. Another praise for the incredible job that you have done with explaining pretty much all that there is to know about DF, and turbines. I can't believe how much you typed. How long did it take you to type all of that. INCREDIBLE. Thanks ONCE AGAIN for what you have told everyone.
