Is the Rookie a good first jet?
Hi Everyone
Finally getting around to purchasing my first jet, and was hoping to get some insight from people regarding the composite arf rookie. After reading through some of the threads, it appears that people have indicated that it's not as easy as some may like to think. I guess my question relates to landing the aircraft and in what type of configuration. What is the optimum CG with a p120 powerplant. It also sounds like people are using the canards as airbrakes during landings. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I will be flying off of a shorter grass runway that's a little rough. I would like to eventually use thrust vectoring, but may fly without it for some time until I get the hang of things. I am coming from flying helicopters and other 3d airplanes
Thanks so much for your help!
Andy
