hello Nsmflyer, if you are looking at training options in the west check out sport aviation academy at wyalkatchem, approx 2 hrs NE of Perth. I have been learning with them over the past few months (I am up to about 3.5 hrs solo time) and have found CFI's Glen Hawser and John Welsh to be very good and have I really enjoyed my training. Glen is also a LAME. They fly a Jabiru 160c and a 230c. Both are modern low hour planes and Wylie has a great airfield with a 1500m long main runway. Though I have not had a fly in a gazelle, I have sat in one and they do feel like they are from a previous era compared to the much more contemporary Jabiru. After looking at several aircraft with a view to purcgase I keep coming back to the Jabs for performance, payload and price! Search on Sport Aviation Academy on the web to find them and talk to Glen.
230 Figures?

Hi Mark
I get 118 knots TAS at 2750rpm, about 21l/hr.
I often land on 500-600m dirt strips with a bit of room to spare.
