There are many different models available that are aimed at the first time jet flyer. As Volkan suggestion, Thorjet do many kits and plans and a good range of ducted fan units, however there are many other manufacturers of DF jets. www.jethangar.com have many ARF jet kits which may suit you.
Field space for takeoff and the surface you fly from must also be taken into account when buying a first DF jet, as they need to get upto speed before they'll lift off....

I'm not all that up on 339's in kit form, but the is an ARF version for 91DF. Trim Aircraft do a well sized 91DF F-86 that flies well.
I'm sure others will chime in and offer help......;)

check out www.rcjets.com They also offer an ARF now. The owner Bob Parkinson has done a lot to get his business back up and running within the last year. Do your self a favor and at least order one of his videos.
