The engine is a Jab 2200 of unknown S/N and S/B compliance w/ 125 hours. The cruise at 4GPH is only 65 MPH, looks like a 2 blade warp drive prop. This seems a good 10 MPH slow and no where near the cruise step. The inlets look like the smaller un modded size, though basic question about Oil Temp and CHT got a "no problems" response. At 16K it seems like a good deal- has a panel radio, Narco Trans/Mode C, etc- I know at 6'1 and 230# I'm a tight squeeze- I just fit in a Kitfox IV w/ some stick/leg bumping, but the sig. other is a tiny 5'4 and 115#. I've read all the Jabiru S/Bs, the AD note, etc. It has a Bing Carb, but don't know if it's 32 or 40MM- the Rotec TBI looks like the thing to swap to down the road. I don't mind a new prop test phase if there is a better one out there- would like to goto ELSA, so would like to keep it fixed pitch. Don't want to spend 6 grand and have to tear down the motor to update it, but I'd take the courses to do the maint. on it as a LSA. Suggestions, hints, gotchas?
