        John
        I am new to this. How do I find out when these classes are? When 
ordering a part from Jabiru I up dated the new ownership of the engine. 
I would have thought that would have put me on a list.
        Thanks

          Greetings All,

          I wanted to take a moment to echo previous comments about 
Jabiru USA's engine seminar. 

          I attended the engine seminar last weekend and I must say I 
was thoroughly impressed! Pete, Nick and Mark did an excellent job of 
presenting every aspect of this fine little engine. Every individual 
engine part was described in detail and was passed around to each 
attendee for close inspection. Each system (lubrication, ignition, 
induction, exhaust, etc) was also described in great detail, including 
the Bing 94 carby. Each member of the class completely disassembled and 
rebuilt a Bing carb. Operation of the carb and aspects of how to 
properly tune it for a particular airframe was also discussed at length. 
Perhaps the most enlightening portion was a discussion of the cause of 
failures that have occurred using the actual failed parts that have come 
back to Jabiru USA (primarily from owner abuse) to describe and vividly 
illustrate what to do, and more importantly, what not to do. 

          Each attendee participated in valve removal and installation, 
and piston, cylinder and head removal and installation. Engine 
reassembly, including engine timing, was thoroughly covered, along with 
regular maintenance issues and procedures, and installation hints and 
tips. The atmosphere was informal. Questions were welcomed and answered 
in depth. The hospitality of the Jabiru USA crew simply could not have 
been better. On the final day after class ended we were invited to tour 
the Jabiru USA and Lightning LSA manufacturing areas where numerous 
aircraft were in various stages of build. Lunch was provided both Friday 
and Saturday and a Saturday night dinner event at a local eatery was 
arranged for all attendees. 

          Whether you are new to the engine, or have a few years 
experience with it like me, I would highly recommend going through this 
course. Regardless of your level of expertise, everyone will learn 
something from this course. My confidence level with this engine has 
gone up exponentially and I met some mighty fine people in the process. 
The course is well worth the price and you won't regret taking the time 
to attend.

          Many thanks to Pete, Nick, Mark and Dana for putting on a fine 
event!

          Regards,

          John Lawton
