"We didn't need it."
Source: Aerocomp test pilot Ron Lueck, after the
first flight of the CA-Jet on Tuesday. The flight departed Merritt
Island Airport (FL) and flew over Titusville. Lueck landed at TICO,
where he had the luxury of runways that are much longer than at
Merritt Island, but said the new jet didn't need all that concrete
after all.
