'There and Back' Jabiru Test Flying Completed...now for May 5th.

[Nostalgair]

Hi All,

 

Despite the weather's best efforts to spoil the show, the 'There and Back' Jabiru has now completed it's test flying program.

 

The wait for the May 5th departure now begins.

Thanks also for all of the good wishes I'm receiving from RA-Aus folks through the website.

 

Cheers

Looks great mate!

 

What day and route are you going to take to Natfly? I'm taking a 230D down as well, leave thursday morning, from Cecil Plains (ie Dalby).

 

I'm now taking a 120 down instead.

Hi Tomo,

 

The team from Jabiru at Bundaberg are flying the aircraft to Temora for NATFLY, so I'm not sure of their route and timing.

 

I might see you there though as I am coming down over the weekend.

 

Cheers

Counting down the days!

 

One month to go until ‘There and Back’ departs Bundaberg on May 5th!

 

I checked out the aircraft this weekend at Temora’s NATFLY and the Jabiru J230 looks fantastic. More importantly, it ran like a Swiss watch for the flight from Bundaberg. There was also an opportunity to assess the rig for the onboard HD camera and it promises to capture some great images on the way around Australia. Counting down the days! |

 

Cheers
