THE JABIRU 170: READY FOR THE TOUGH DEMANDS OF FLIGHT TRAINING

Jabiru Aircraft Pty, Ltd. has been in the business of producing Light Sport aircraft since 1991. The fleet of Jabiru LSA around the world in flight schools and flight clubs has accumulated nearly half a million flight hours. Jabiru LSA aircraft have the reputation of being docile and predictable-an easy airplane in which to instruct or fly. At the same time, Jabirus are plenty tough to take on the rigors of touch-and-goes and day-in and day-out flight training. The J170 is especially rugged. It has the same landing gear and wing as used on Jabiru’s 4 place aircraft at a much higher gross weight.

THE RUGGED JABIRU J170- IS USED WORLD-WIDE FOR FLIGHT TRAINING
The airplane accomplishes its mission efficiently as a result of the design goals of Jabiru Aircraft, Pty., Ltd.
  • Simplicity – All systems are kept simple in design and uncomplicated in manufacture.
  • Reliability – Components are chosen for their demonstrated reliability, then thoroughly aircraft tested.
  • Availability – The technology used in Jabiru aircraft and engines is well-known and available worldwide.
  • Efficiency – meaning great performance for the money – allowing flight schools more opportunity for profit and allowing lower-cost training for students.
Jabiru provides the tools to prosper in the LSA training business over the long haul. Maintenance is always an important part of any flight-training operation. Jabiru aircraft are simple and inexpensive to maintain. The use of some common maintenance items sourced from the automotive industry helps keep costs to a minimum. Spark plugs, oil filters, distributor caps, and rotors are all readily available at auto parts stores at auto parts stores at auto parts prices. Oil changes require only 2.5 quarts if Aeroshell 100W. Additionally, proprietary Jabiru parts are inexpensive when compared to most other production aircraft.
