PR9 Canberra could get up there too. Lightning wasn't actually straight and level at those sort of altitudes though.

JP V Hunter

JP converts fuel into noise. Hunter converts money into pleasure.
Having converted onto both types im not sure thats true to be honest.

Both aircraft convert fuel into noise and both convert money into pleasure

Problem with the Hunter is the preflight prep/training can take a long time and cant be rushed but the biggest problem is below 10,000 feet (and no radar service) both are restricted to 250 knots and lets be honest low level is where you get a sense of speed so £3K v £500 for almost the same experience

You also have to consider where the aircraft are based, anything down south and under a control zone has to spend a bit of flying time just to find some clear airspace for some aerobatics/fun, whereas "up north" theres nothing but free airspace and beautiful scenery

The choice is yours.

Anyone interested in a trail flight can contact us at anytime.

Regards
Neil
