Flash slideshow of J230The Jabiru J230-SP is the latest development of the popular J series three door aircraft.
A thinner centre console makes better use of the interior space. The arm rest and control stick is more comfortable and allows instructors a better grip.

Modifications to the instrument panel gives improved knee room.
These changes have been made without affecting the Jabiru traditional strengths of value, reliability, simplicity, speed, comfort and Room. It has the Jabiru USA’s excellent interior finish and a huge baggage compartment – it is the same fuselage as Jabiru’s four place aircraft but the rear seats are not fitted. It still has the all strength needed for four place operation but the gross weight has been lowered to meet the USA Light Sport requirements.
