Default RE: FLy Eagle Jet Models

You might be right, Bob. But I'm still not going to run out and buy one. Initially I was concerned about landing my Gripen there, but it hasn't been a problem. Various planes land differently, however the concern in general with larger jets is that there is no margin for error. I can be spot on most of the time, but nobody bats 1000. If you come in a little hot or a little too high you're off the end into the rough. In the past a few guys have flown Yellow F-18 single ducted fans there with no problem. Except for a couple Boomerangs and a few medium sized jets most of us are sticking with planes small enough for 14-18# turbines.
