Hi all, I have been reading this thread with interest, I have used a hire J230 for remote community work in WA and love the aircraft and have even considered the J430 for the extra weight etc. I have been a bit disappointed to hear of the issues with the Jab3300 and went off the idea. However reading this thread has shed some interesting light on the subject, would you all recommend this aircraft with the mods as descibed as a longterm prospect, I dont like the idea of a forced landing and remote areas, although I do follow the roads.

Andrew and John, how has the mods improved your engines.

Thanks.

Hi Guys,

Can I please obtain that information also, what models does it include.

Darren

Hi Ian,

Had a look at the video, well done. What are your thoughts on the 601hd.

Darren

Hi Ianrat,

Thanks for the update, I read from another thread that you were going to use a Convair engine is that correct. Love to see some pics. I am looking for an aircraft that I can fly into remote areas of WA. I have been hiring a J230 but two issues, over weight and not too sure about Jab engines, I see alot of reports of failures or issues. Do you know of any in WA

Regards

Darren

Thanks for the update, how long did it take you to complete the project and do you mind sharing what the total costs were.

Hello Brett, I just started in RA this year and I am loving it. Darren:thumb_up:

Thanks Frank, I love the photo's in your blog, looks like a great place to fly. Do you have your own airstrip. Darren

Hi Guys, my daughter and I were introdcuced to Recreational Aviation while staying at Narromine Tourist Park, a new Jab120 came in to fuel. I knew nothing about RA_Aus certificate and always supposed that flying was out of reach. Mark at the glider club really encouraged us and we ended up doing a TIF with Norm in his Jab160. Loved it and we plan to work on our license when we get back to WA in mid Nov, cant wait. It is going to be a huge learning curve for me and I am a bit worried b ut excited about the possibilities.
