Default RE: Just researching-Where does one start?

The best thing to do is go to where there are Jet Flyers that can help you. There are probably several in your area that can help you with any questions you have.
Another is to go to a couple Jet Meets. That's where you can see everything you need to. Often you can pick up what you need to get started, plane, engine,equipment, etc.
The best plane for you may not be the best plane for someone else. There are many factors- runway type, length, transportation, money, are just a few.
Most pilots start with a sport plane such as a Hot Spot, Rookie, Kangaroo. They are great flying planes, much less complex than scale planes, and are less exspensive.
Most importantly, look around, figure out what will work best for you.
Good luck, Randy
