You dont sink a lot of money and most importantly, your time, into aircraft like these when you're still a newbie pilot... well not more than once, anyway. Unless you're just really stupid. I've seen guys that wont listen to anyone, think they can handle a fast & heavy WW2 fighter as their first plane, and take it home in a garbage bag.

Nobody will sign you off on a turbine waiver in the USA if you cant demonstrate that you can safely and successfully fly a turbine aircraft. You can fly without a waiver, but you wont be covered by the AMA and nobody is going to help you out if they know you dont have a turbine waiver, which means you wont be flying at a nice club field and absolutely not at a tournament or show.
