Actually its takeoff and landing distance is a little over 100 meters, iirc.

I actually read an article about that plane in Sport Aviation (the EAA's magazine) a few weeks ago.  I think it was on the cover even, magazine is gone now can't remember.

That little twin is a real plane, I believe it is French, one reason not to own one.  I am not to sure about it but since the engines are so close together, but I don't think it would be, too bad on one, but I would not want to find out.  Plus if something did happen and you busted it there is not a whole lot between the meat bag flying, and picking up a bad case of dead, or badly injured.  I will stick with Beech, Piper, and Cessna.

The funny thing is in a dogfight. If the small plane had a heat seeker missile. The small plane would probably defeat the Mirage every time.

I doubt it would be able to take off with one.
