The Jabiru J160 is an ultralight and civil trainer manufactured by Jabiru Aircraft.

Summary

Developed by Australia's Jabiru Aircraft, the J160/J170 is a twin-seat, single-engine light sport craft made available as a kit or ready-to-fly.

Engineered with flight schools in mind, the J160/J170 features an enclosed cockpit with side-by-side seating, a high wing with winglets on the J170, and tricycle landing gear. The small aircraft has a wingspan of 31.7 feet and an empty weight of just over 700 pounds. The all-composite airplane is powered by Jabiru's 2200 engine that delivers 85 horsepower to a fixed-pitch, two-blade propeller — a combination that gives the J160/J170 a cruising speed of 115 miles per hour and a climb rate of 700 feet per minute.

With the handsome J160/J170, designers at Jabiru created a perfect balance of flight forgivingness and performance, an aircraft that's both easy to fly and a lot of fun. The J160/J170 can takeoff in less than 500 feet, has a respectable stall speed of 44 miles per hour, and can stay aloft for up to ten hours at a time. Pilots can enjoy a straight-and-level leisurely cruise in the J160/J170, and then test their skills with wing overs and tight turns. Not just an ideal trainer for those new to flight, the Jabiru J160/J170 proves a joy to even the most seasoned of aviators.
