Are there any unusual flight characteristics in the Phoenix FanJet?  
     
 

The Phoenix FanJet is an extremely stable aircraft. It has no unusual flight characteristics and, in some ways, it is even easier to fly than piston aircraft. There is no torque or slipstream and a single throttle with no mixture or props to adjust. It is flown as easily as any high-performance single-engine aircraft, but being a jet, the Phoenix is far more aerodynamically "slippery" than piston-powered aircraft. So, as with any other fast airplane, the pilot must think further ahead of his current position at all times.
