I probably could do a jet version... It wouldn't be much harder than swapping out the fuselage part for a different one, ditching the prop and landing gear, and adding engine pods. The tricky thing might be modifying the lower wing and new fuselage for retractable gear (I suppose I could be lazy and have an in flight only version.) Heheh... Sometimes it's funny how remarkably some aircraft are shaped alike. I've seen what appear to be kit planes that follow this layout. And I'm sure I've seen the jet versions on TV. (Business jets at the airport here still look like the typical Learjet configuration or are identical to the smaller "regional" commercial jets.) My guess is that the same overall layout could work in different aircraft with only a few mods to accomodate the size, propulsion method, and operating speed.
