First jet selection......
 

Hi all,

I'm in the process of finalizing the decision on my first turbine powered airplane. Given that this is my first turbine, and that I fly off of a 300' grass strip, I thought that the PCM AV8R would be a good choice! My main concern is that the field length is insufficient. Should a 300' grass runway be a problem for the AV8R if the approaches to the runway are clear??

Thanks,

John

I flew mine from a really rough grass runway. It got off in about 175ft and climbs straight up.
About 100ft off paved surface.


Here is a video I have of one of the first times I flew mine
It's kind of small so a little hard to see.
