Another Jab bites the dust.

Well done to the instructor involved, I went through the exact same situation (failure of N0. 3 thru bolt on take-off) with only 6 hrs of solo time. Luckily, I still had 1000 mts of runway ahead of me. -
G'day Mick, yeah we are the same age. I kind of wish I had taken it up a bit earlier,but then again GPS wasn't invented in those days :-) Cheers-Steve

I have only 3 hrs on the Jabiru so far.The runway has not been completed as yet and the funds to complete it are still uncertain.It is currently usable as a dirt strip though.

Hi,my name is Steve and I'm learning to fly a Jab J160 at the Sport Aviation Academy in Wyalkatchem about 200km east of Perth.It's a great place to learn as there are no hills,great weather most of the year and almost no other traffic to worry about.Cheers -Steve
