What are the options for a turbine traier in the U.K ? I have seen the Boomerang Intro but what else is available in ARTF form. P-60, P-70, MW54 size. Any pictures or comments and links to sites would help a great deal

Thanks.

Is the Reaction 54 available over there?
It's well worth a look

I reckon whats an equally important question is which aircraft types will be your preference longer term ie F-16, F-18 or earlier types such as F-86, Mig, Vampire, Hawk etc....Or sport jets??? Boomerangs are ok but not an ideal preperation for flying fast modern heavier wing loaded jets in my opinion for which somthing like a Rookie maybe a more suitable choice.
There really is no reason why you cannot consider a scale jet either... Lots of suitable affordable scale ARF choices about now days L-39's, Hawks etc

I had not given a great deal of thought to what would follow the first stage. A turbine trainer fulfills two rolls, a slightly different aproach to flying as well as a different powerplant and controll system instalation.

To be honest i am not that bothered about going down the F- this, F-that or F-the other route. Everybody seems to have the F-16 or whatever number follows. A straightforward easy on the eye, sensibly wing loaded airplane to fly as and when you wish..is all thats needed....As i'm frequently reminded these are only toy airplanes [:@]

It also depends where you fly off grass or hard surface.I'm having a blast flying the boomerrang off the grass.
