Hi upperking
As Marty said, there are various options available to the first time jet/turbine purchaser.
For air frames, the Kangaroo 2 and the Hot Spot are two good choices. Both will still require some building. The MB339 ARF from DL Aeromodels would be another good choice. Another good choice, but requires construction, is the AV8TR from PCM models. Very simple and straight forward construction and uses a 12 lb turbine.
As for engines, SimJet offers a complete line up from the 700M (7lbs) to the 3000AES(28lbs+) with prices from $1899(700M) to $2899(3000AES). All engines shipped after Superman will be IR Handheld Display ready.

Good luck with your choices and welcome to the Jet Fraternity.
