in which plane ?

The Hotspot would be insanly fast at full throttle, and the eurosport will fly great.

yep, but i am a little bit hesitant about the eurosport. For the eurosport, the turbine is mounted inside the plane and what if I get a "wet start" where the turbine goes on fire?

Another qns, why is the simjet an auto-start turbine while the rest aren't? What exactly is auto-start compared to normal turbines?

Thank you!

How about the Skymaster f15?......I heard it was pretty stable and had good flying characteristics. Any comments?

Almost all turbines these days are auto start.
Auto start simply means that the ECU takes care of the spool up and fuel ramp for you. All you need to do is initiate the start sequence with your transmitter while the ECU does the rest.
