  • One particular feature of the JS3 that I flew back in March is the JET! I have never flown this alternative to the turbo engine but I was very excited to try it out! Would you try out the jet and feel like Maverick for a day?
    Let me know what video's you think I should do next!

    One remark Simon: “cruising speed” with the jet is indeed 140 km/h (or faster). But to get it started stay below 120 km/h. Means as well: absolutely NO diving to get it started and practically no additional drag. Noise in the cockpit is fairly low and I find thermals very well with the jet on. Really the best system with only fuel consumption (I always say I want to use it very seldom, so this does not really count) and noise outside, behind the jet as negative points.

    Hello, don’t dive before start up, you risk a flame out, flight manual says below 120km/h for start up.😉

    Nice! Amazing kick right? Did you do a lowpass, feels quite nice pulling up without losing too much speed

    Why a jet? Because jets are really cool!

    Too noisy, have to fly too fast so will easily miss thermals, still have to dive to start it.
    It'd prefer a FES or RES, or even a SH petrol Turbo.
    But have to admit, it does look cool
