Any jet made by Cessna = a 172 with a couple of blow-dryers mounted on it. One can do so much better......
As far as Jack's flying skills, the two publicized mishaps aren't his only excursions into tearing up sheet metal. I personally witnessed some of his handiwork where he managed to chew up a Beechcraft Duke with the propeller of his P-51 without ever leaving the ground, just a failed attempt at taxiing; a senior moment on which lever does what.
I've met him, and he's a nice enough guy, but he has no business anywhere near the cockpit of an aircraft. He should sit in the back with a scotch and water and let the pros handle business up front. When it comes to private jets, there's a lot of wannabes out there.
Roush is damned lucky to be alive. Under most circumstances, aviation is VERY unforgiving of mistakes and bad judgement.
