Hi Todd!
How are you?

I think it is a great market for a big Sport Jet for the new powerful engines that has hit the market lately.

Here's a few features I would greatly appreciate if I was to buy a big Sport Jet.

* Big and with low wing loading.
* Docile handling and slow landings for short fields and grass strips
* Would have to be equally happy inverted as well as upright and able to fly the normal aerobatic maneuvers as well as knife edge without too much ail and elev input
* Retracts located in the fuse or center section of the wing (3 pcs.) for easy assembly at the field as well as easy to move around and to store.
* BIG hatches for great access for big hands to engine, tanks and the rest of the equipment.
* Large fuel capacity for long flights (5-6 liters).

In addition I would like it to be highly pre-fabricated (I'm lazy) and be able to take almost anything I could throw at it without falling apart.
So far I haven't found a plane that has all these features, but closest match at present time would be a King Cat or the new C-ARF Lightning which looks very promising.

But I have time to wait for a perfect plane as my enthusiasm for RC are rather low these days....[&o]
