Of course the owner of the Avocet has been building quality Jabirus for years so it made sense to use those bits and pieces as a base. Designed by him and his son who is doing his aeronautical engineering degree. My only concern was the angle of incidence of the horizontal tailplane, it looked to be commesurate with the angle of the fuselage leading up to the rear. Took about 500-600 meters to lift off. Guess they are still getting comfortable with it. I am worried about them using a Jabiru as a pusher. It has never been overly successful without additional cooling fans. Time will tell.
