compsci Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 I am a retired Computer Science Professor who may have to let his medical lapse. I currently own a Piper Saratoga PA32R301. I fly out of Chicago Exectutive Airport (PWK). I am considering buying a Jabiru J250 or J230. I just had a demo flight and like the flight characteristics but found the Trim and Rudder controls very stiff. In fact I was unable to move the Trim control during my demo flight. I will be going to Sebring, Florida this January to look at the other Light Sport Aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suggest you try another example of a J230/250 before you make a final decision. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
