Default Watched my first jet in person last week.

My club had it's annual Fun Fly a little over a week ago. Until that time, I had only seen these things in videos. It had great short field performance, and was also very fast in the air. This pilot (from a neighboring club) flew twice before I got there and filmed this, his third flight. After this flight I was told that he didn't open it up like he did on the previous flights. I thought he was going pretty fast.

It was nice and loud, and fast, and I can hardly wait to see one fly again!

Awesome vid. I haven't seen one in person either but I imagine it's a sight for sure.

Bob, if you ever get to SoCal, come with me to the club one day. You'll see at least one jet and probably more like 3 or 4.. (Oh, and my turbine. hehe)

I have family in Northern and Southern Cal, I wish I could make it back more often than once every few years.
