It has no problem stopping (another bad rap) I know there is a lot of misinformation on this jet but I will tell anyone that its a good jet. If you have a chance to make Capt and its on the Maddog, DO IT!

I agree. Its not a bad jet.
I think you left out two big PITAs though.

1. The packs can't keep up on a hot day. (you sweat your *** off)
2. The brakes chatter. Sometimes horribly.
