Great video.

That thing has a long nose on it. I would love to learn how to fly that baby. I couldn't afford the fuel LOL

FINALLY! This is the right plane for MojoGrip to be flying on his daily rounds; you know, to go to the grocery store, to go to doctor appointments, visit friends who have moved out of the state, fishing trips, etc. Believe me. I am an expert. THIS is YOUR plane!

As the great Wayne once said, "It will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine."

I just bought this for DCS World. I fly DCS world in Vr. So far I can fly the Uh 1 huey from start -up to shutdown the P51 mustang and A-10. I'm wondering how realistic its gonna be compared to the real thing when it comes to th L-39. Vr is a game changer.

Oh man, you get to fly all the good toys!

The Viper Jet is a kit-build "Experimental" plane with a jet engine, so yes, one needs a Type rating from the FAA that needs to be renewed annually same as the L-39. Plus, an L-39 is right around the same price with a "glass" cockpit (~500k), and it's a bad-@$$, late-Soviet era real life jet trainer with plenty of examples around world-wide...a Viper Jet can't touch that level of awesome, even if it is a few knots faster.

I wonder if the next gen L39 will be available to buy in the civilian market.

I dont get why a private pilot needs 1000 hrs to get trained to fly an L39. That many hours a can get you a job for a major air carrier. Actually military pilots are going up in L39s with waaay less time, and doing fine. Makes no sense to me.

720 litres per hour.

When you are really cool you do not need to buckle that chinstrap.

160 gallons per hour, ouch.

I can’t believe how cheap it is!!

20 years in the navy? You look 20...

What do your parents do for a living?...

I wonder why it's so heavy. And such a big body. 3.5ton empty, only 2 seat unpressurized and 17kN thrust engine. A 300kg Williams FJ44-4 engine can match that thrust. A good composite bird should be possible at 600kg including engine. Which would be a very different thrust to weight ratio. And fuel economy. And top speed.

we need small efficient GA jets. sub 200k$ new price, same fuel economy as a Sling yet close to speed of sound. It's very doable.

@lucifermorningstar4548

Dan Frederiksen no it’s not doable. You must be new to aviation. The cheapest jet engine that can push a 1 passenger jet (Subsonex jet from Sonex) is still over $70,000 for just the engine, and it drinks gas. A RR 300 turbo shaft engine is about $450,000 and that’s barely 400shp. Nothing is cheap let alone a jet. And jet aircraft cannot be flimsy like a Sling TSI because they are subjected to higher G’s and speeds.

@@lucifermorningstar4548 ye of little faith. Unlike you I have the insight to think on my own, I'm not an unquestioning product of what has already been done. I'm well familiar with the sad state of aviation. Of course it can be done and I wouldn't use the same construction as the current sling. You'll notice I said composite bird. If you weren't new to aviation you'd understand what that means. A Lancair IV-P can do 540km/t so it's not a structural impossibility to go fast. Lancair also exists in faster turboprop versions. And it's not like a Cirrus Visionjet is a 12g rated fighter. But of course needs flutter stability appropriate of its speed. btw did you create this account just to be the devil's advocate or do you have this general sunny disposition?

Dan Frederiksen i must have hurt your feelings. And it’s sad it took you this long to come up with some kind or retort. And when you did it was sad. No I am not new to aviation at all, after my time in the Air Force I went and got my A&P license and have been working at Lockheed Martin since 2011. I think I might k ow a little bit about composite aircraft construction. My comment stands as it was. You will never see what you are hoping for. Aviation will never be cheap especially if there are turbine engines involved. From an insider I can say that for certain.

Yak-130 better for this kind of trainings.
