These sorts of trijets are the last in production. Got to see one land today:

    Lol!

    If I remember correctly, tower asked me to line up and wait (taxi out onto the runway) right then, so I quickly stopped recording the cool jet. I could have finished, but I doubt the tower and 6 other Cessnas behind me cared enough about filming to wait. ?

    (Yes, there were at least 5 Cessnas waiting too, maybe more. It was a nice day, so nearly every plane at the flight school was booked)

     

    Wait, just realized I did cut off the last second or so. Don't really want to delete that paragraph.

    Same great look, but now with less troll!

    Don't worry, the trijet Dassault Falcon is going nowhere soon. It actually has enough benefits to trade off the additional costs of the third engine when compared to the Bombardier or Gulfstream ;) 

     

    In other news, try holding short for a cargo 777 landing, in a 152. Kinda just sat there for 4 or so minutes for the wake turbulence to die down...

    Also, I once got to share the circuit with an A320. The tower definitely didn't have as much fun as me, as due to runway limitations for the A320 and crosswind limitations for me, we were using different, intersecting runways ?
