It was at Bob's home field, Moriarty, NM. Elevation is 6200'.
2000' or so AGL. Bob ran the turbine a bit long, as he wanted to shut
down in a round thermal and there weren't any.

Where was this, Jim?
Takeoff airport AMSL?
How high above the airport did you climb before shut down?

Bob Carlton's TST-14 Bonus Jet climbs at about 1000FPM using 100%
thrust for first 500ft, then back off to about 80% for the rest of
the launch. We burned about 10 liters of Jet A to self-launch then
went soaring. The turbine is a PBS TJ-100, same as on his Salto and
latest toy the Sub Sonex.
Apparently Yves does not get low level clearance so looks like a
speck at air shows.
