Thanks for your replies. Really starting to feel likeive joined a "community" of people who are passionate about their flying and willing to share their experience and information.

I have amassed 2 hours in the J170 on my way to conversion of my GA Licence and i must say, after Cherokees and Cessnas, its like starting all over again but what a great journey!!

Back to basics and loving it,,

Cheers

Thanks Mate, yes i have read a few Reviews comparing them.

Have pretty much settled on the 170 which seems like a good fit between the 160 and the 230 which is out of my budget!

Cheers

Gday John

I am looking closely at a new J170D also in March so maybe we can hook up and fly in formation out of Bundy.

I will be going up to the Jab Factory next month (from Sydney) to have a chat to the Jab guys.

Keep in touch

Cheers

Gday Phil, i use a padded cushion so it smoothes the bumps!!

Im a skinny guy so i dont have a problem with room in the cockpit.

Happy Flying

Roscoe

Thanks Peter

Appreciate the info. Ive also looked into the 230 but i think the 170 will do me fine.

Meanwhile, am enjoying the transition and will keep in touch
