Jabiru 1600

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Jabiru 1600 is a horizontally opposed direct drive four-stroke, air-cooled aircraft piston engine produced by Jabiru Aircraft.[1] Jabiru designed and built the Jabiru 1600 to power the light sport aircraft it produced when it could not obtain supplies of the Italian KFM 112M engine used to power its early production aircraft.[2] The 1600 was approved in Australia in November 1993 and was used on Jabiru production aircraft.[2]
