JK-05

-

Although the JK-05 Junior can be ordered with a 100hp motor, this exceptiona­lly comfortabl­e, economical and quiet aircraft offers amazing performanc­e at high altitude and at MTOW on just the standard 80hp Rotax 912ul engine. Coupled to the superbly efficient DUC 3 blade composite ground adjustable propeller customers often report economy figures of less than 10 litres / hour in circuit training at sea level. Allied to a reposition­ed engine mount that has allowed the COG to be moved slightly aft tall 1.98-meter pilots can now be easily accommodat­ed.

With an exclusive interior option that has few equals the JK-05 really stands out. Factory built in Poland and SACAA type approved the supplier offers a full flight test report prior to shipping. Where many aircraft may seem like good value before one adds all the optional equipment most pilots want, Ekolot have gone to great lengths to ensure that customers receive the complete package with just about every option one could expect as standard equipment. For this reason, the JK-05 represents terrific value and is highly regarded both here in South Africa and Europe.
