I have a recently acquired an X-Air H also.? #965. Jabiru., 67 hours.

Please contact me privately and we can work together and share what we know.

Limited parts in the US, but the aircraft is still supported.

Fun little machine - Just replaced all glass, windshield doors, overhead for 140 dollars.

Did the nose wheel centering mod similar to what is on Seamus build corner, really helps.

Rebuilt, re-lubed brakes so they don't stick on.

Now designing a disk brake upgrade using bicycle brakes.

Still searching on a cabin heater mod.

Do believe the best option may actually be a VW automotive gas heater.? Similar units are used in many aircraft.

I like this plane.?? It doesn't fly as fast or far as the 747 I used to fly, but then again I don't have to put up with 14 menopausal flight attendents? (That is, the ones that aren't light in the loafers), 2 International Relief Pilots who don't want to be there but are reading Cosmopolitan Magazine the entire 15 hours to Japan and wishing they were home with their kids, and a first officer who thinks he's the Captain.

Grass not quite so green on the other side.

Hi there I noticed your post with regards to the cabin heater I have a rotax 912 fitted to my H and have cabin heat fitted using a cowling fitted to the exhaust, a section of heater hose and a flap into the cabin operated with an automotive choke cable

Hi I saw your post on cabin heat. I found plans on the XAIR France dealer site which gave an easy design for manifold heat. It works great on my Hanaman w/ Jabiru 2200.
