High Alpha....
Threw the P160 on the 'ol TV hotspot and OH MY GOOOOOD!
The throttle response is damn close to a 2 stroke glow and the T/W on the hotspot makes for lotsa fun. Never got her over 170mph but had some fun with the RAW power:
Hard to control all that power in the departed flight, but it'll be fun trying.
Check out the video:

Swweeeeeet!! That has got to be the shortest takeoff roll I have ever seen (with a jet)!!!!
Is the CG at the recommended location or have you pushed it forward?

Nice short take off Joe. I bet your knee was shaking when you doing. Anyways, last weeken was nice. I wish it wasn't that hot. You and Col Tomb did a great formation flight.
Hope to see you and the rest of southern Ca gangs soon.
