Hi Mark,

I fly fairly aggressively. If you watch the beginning of the trailer on the main page of my website, you can see I like to bang on things<g>

Cost not a huge factor.

Up until this weekend, I didn't realize jets could take off in such a short distance on grass... now I want one :-) A guy named Dan Avilla was up at an airshow with me this past weekend in Canada. He had a king cat and it jumped off this grass field... He was very smooth... I would prefer to fly more aggressively.

Sounds like jetcat is the way to go?? I want reliability and simplciity of use..don't mind paying more to get it. I just want the plane to be on the small side. The king cat was a little big. The P80 or 120 sounds like the ones for this range of size??? Without ever flying one, hard to know what type of flying I would prefer, but I think I would get tired of doing high speed passes.... Having the power to take off on a short field is another big factor...

You guys have already been very helpful! In the heliworld, its hard to get straight answers sometimes because we all become affiliated somehow with the companies that make our toys...you guys appear to be giving me good info!

Thanks, Mike
