I didn't think I wanted one but here is at least one reason to reconsider:

Pretty cool. It looks like she lands fairly flat--maybe one second between touchdown of the mains and the nosegear.

I noticed the same thing Mark. I wonder if you can't hold the nose off a bit longer to take advantage of some aerodynamic braking. Of course, the thing probably touches down so slow it wouldn't do much.

Regardless, that's a cool looking jet! I really like the slight redesign with the bigger nose and the panel looks awesome! Plus, the fully retracting gear is so cool as well.

I'd have one ordered today if I could just find an extra 100 grand laying around...
