Jabiru Aircraft PTY, Ltd of Australia produces a line of kit aircraft that are among the most extensively tested and thoroughly developed kit planes in the entire world.

Certified and proven

Jabiru's are certified in Australia, South Africa, and several other countries and are used extensively for flight training and light commercial purposes. The Jabiru airframe has proven itself over hundreds of thousands of flight hours with the highest time airframe approaching 6000 hours and many dozen more over 4500 hours all over the world. Much of this flying has been in flight schools suffering the abuse of student pilots performing touch & go landings for hours on end. The fact that these airplanes continue to be in demand for flight training speaks to the reliability, predictability, and longevity of the design.

Exceptional flight characteristics

All Jabiru airplanes exhibit gentle and predictable controls with no bad habits. Stalls are very gentle and cruise flight for long periods with little or no control input is the norm.

Simple composite construction

Jabiru aircraft are available as kits or ready to fly. There is no difference in the kit parts sold to homebuilders and the parts that go into Jabiru's Certified Airframes. Homebuilders are assured a high quality, top of the line product. Build time for the inexperienced builder ranges between 500 and 600 hours including engine and instrument installation and paint. Little fiberglass work is required other than applying reinforcing tapes. Finish work is minimal thanks to a gel coat surface that minimizes pinholes and filling and sanding.
