All of the responses SO FAR are positive and real.
The fundamental VALUE of your post is that it shows that you have set a GOAL for yourself.
Different strokes for different folks is true, some dream of JETS like yourself, some GLIDERS, some go for competitio AEROBATICS then the FIGHTERS, Worl War I Biplanes, etc etc.
With more than 30 years of flying experience, the very fastest plane I ever flew was the PATRIOT with a supercharged tuned pipe. I did not like the experience even though I had flown aerobatic pattern for years. I guess I don't have the need for speed.
Again our BRITISH colleague VOLKAN has given sage advise. I am guessing that Volkan and Samolot must be very close in age ( 16 ? ) so you understand each other.
Keep the dream
Cross the bridges as you get to them
Turbines and related stuff will come down in price as they get more popular.
There already are ARF planes for turbines.
IT WILL ALL COME TOGETHER. HAVE FAITH. EVERYTHING COMES TO THOSE WHO WAIT.

hehe, im 14!
Im just about to finish the thorjet website,
im getting there F20 kit for cheap!, and already got
my OS91+ Ramtec,
Maybe, bye the time in finished building the F20, I can
afford a MW44/55 for it, instead of the 91 + Ramtec,
I make alot of cash by making websites + reseller PC Parts, (im young, so
cannot charge much, thats whats gets me customers,
but the sites I make are worth £1000/£2000, especally
the mail orders ones i put togeather, but i only charge between
£50-£400).
You need to fund a turbine, and dont let go of the dream,
make it a reality with DF, and when you have the cash,
get a turbine.
Besides, the older we get, the more cash we get, and the cheaper turbines get!
Second hand MW44/54 is only about £800-£1000!
The only troube with me, is I need to spend monney on
PC/Website stuff, and my desktop sim.
