Jabiru

Photographically the shadow here really interested me when I found these long lost files.

 

This little Australian built Jabiru belongs to Freedom Flight, owned and operated by Eugene Reid at George Town Airport. www.freedomflight.com.au/

 

As mentioned on my first upload today, my interest in flying goes way back. I have been fortunate to take lessons in the Cessna 182, the Piper Warrior and this ultralight Jabiru. Unfortunately cost was a major factor in my never getting a private pilot's license. Not so much the cost of learning, but the ongoing costs involved in maintaining minimum flying hours. It is an expensive hobby. But I'll never pass up the opportunity for a flight.

 

Jabiru is an Australian aviation success story.
