But I've flown the smaller Avanti and was sort of amazed at the handling and feel - so it's been on my mind as an option.
Get both .. but you will come back to the flash.. its point and shoot.. it flies just as slow, and faster, climbs better, turns about the same, but is a helluva lot tougher on those tough landing days.. My ultra flash lost an engine and went down in a cornfield.. It landed as gentle as it could in head high corn.. I was expecting a shredded plane.. It was 100% in tact, just full of husk/corndust.. no damage.. that would not happen with any other jet
