flyinghigh Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Was wondering if anyone has modified a Jabiru to enable a paraplegic (or person with limited leg strength) to control rudder by hand, on an aircraft with console-mounted throttle. I've seen designs to suit Jabiru with seat-mounted throttle, along with mods that work on GA trainers (see Wheelies With Wings), but nothing for current factory Jabiru aircraft.
