a line i have heard a few time regards the jabs, is they are easy to fly, but difficult to fly well. and moving from GA to RAA and mainly Jabirus, i found i pretty much had them mastered in about 3 hrs of circuits. and yep, it takes a little getting used to the wagging tail in rough air, i usually ignore it and let the aircraft sort itself out in rough air.

I would be interested to know more about the Rotary powered jabiru, i am considering putting a detuned Rotary in a Savannah Kit, as i have a spare 13B engine in the shed. will he be using a custom engine mount or modified Jabiru mounts??
