Welcome to the MU2. It's got a very small wing with a very high wing loading. In other words, it's all engine. When you cut the power it will stop flying very quickly.

A useful attribute in certain situations but it means monitoring airspeed is even more critical than in more conventional aircraft in its class, i.e. King Airs etc.
