Re: Jabiru engined a/c Limitations
Just to clarify; I made the original post because both my local friends with Jab engines knew nothing about the issue in Aus and were somewhat alarmed by the official document from the Australian regulator.

It is however not my intention to cause the LAA embarrassment so I have sent a message to our moderator with an offer to cease to post here. If he decides tha...
