You know that as far as I'm concerned the culinary capitol of the world is Coopers' BBQ in Llano, Republic of Texas, but if you're at Teterboro, well a guys gotta eat, so you could do worse than eating at the Martini Grill. If you hang a right coming out of Jet Aviaton and follow Moonachie until it deadends in about a half mile, you'll run right into it. If Melek, the waitress who is normally there, asks you to guess what country she's from - say Turkey to impress her with your cosmopolitan savoir faire.

Falcon Capt.--OMG! I appologize. Frac Capt is an ok guy, too but I'll buy the BBQ if I run into you as reparations for the insult.

A thousand pardons. TC

I tried the "Grill" last time I had a dropoff at Jet. I don't think they opened until noon. 11:20 and the place was locked up like Ft Knox. Grrr... I think we wound up at Houlihans. (pretty good chicken caesar salad).

Oh, and to stay on topic, did the Falcon 900 crew out of Fernadina Beach yesterday get their multi-service card back yet?

To make the deal a lock, volunteer that you know that Melek means "Angel" in Turkish.

Is she by any chance the same Turkish gal who tended bar at Tutu Bene before it closed? Blonde, about a 82 on a scale of 1 to 10?

There is an old saying, "If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans". I mean no disrespect, but if I were you I'd take whatever a salemans tells you, and discard it with due speed. I'd talk to other operators for true numbers, or in the case of a nex production aircraft, my pre-purchase contract/deposit would have exit clauses with refund previsions predicated on specific aircraft performance. I wonder what great details the Beech salesmen had for prespective Starship owners clunking down their deposits. With that said, I have no doubt that this Falcon will be a great bird, as it comes from a great family of aircraft makers. The French know how to make corp jets, though they could use a lesson in pricing the parts! Those Falcons are structurally built like brick Sh*t houses. If you want to learn a lesson you will never forget, take what a salesman promises you directly to the guy writing the check for the airplane. Then go buy a good pair of shoes, so when the A/C is delivered, you'll be comfortable as you're in his office doing a rug dance.

Exactly! Our salesman said we'd be able to go out of a 3900' field and make eastern EU no sweat from the SE US.

Why does anyone buy a three engine jet? Safety, reliability, performance...

Max landing weight to beat near MTOW, Vref 104, landing distance 2350'! Incredible. The wing is incredible. You won't find fenses, vortex generators, winglets or the like on a 50/900/2000/7x wing.

This is going to be one sweet ride. DFJ is doing their best to have it flying at the Paris Air Show this year!

Of course, I'm biased

I didn't say I was taking his word as the gospel. Just passing on info related to us early in preproduction planning. That being said, however, if they meet their design goals they won't be far from the numbers he quoted.
