The team at ‘There and Back’ is proud to announce that Jabiru Aircraft of Bundaberg Australia has come on board as a major sponsor, providing an aircraft from the Jabiru range to undertake next year’s around Australia flight.

 

The aircraft will be a Jabiru J230 and its production will commence in the new year. The subsequent construction of the aircraft will be able to be followed on the website at www.thereandback.com.au

 

‘There and Back’ is an around Australia flight taking place in July 2010 to commemorate the centenary of powered flight in Australia and raise funds for the Royal Flying Doctor Service. The choice of the Australian built Jabiru J230 will make ‘There and Back’ a truly all-Australian flight.

Hi All,

 

Just a post to keep you updated on next year's flight around Australia in the Jabiru J230 to raise funds for the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

 

The route has been refined and posted on the website and covers a fair slice of this great country. It was always going to be a challenge to cover everything but I think we've selected a fairly balanced way around.

 

The folks at 'Plane Crazy Down Under' also interviewed me to record a podcast about the trip and a range of aviation topics. If you're interested, it can be found at http://thereandback.com.au/?p=696

 

Thanks again for your interest and I'll let you know of any developments from time to time.

 

Cheers

 

Owen
