Certified by CASA (CAA) in 1991, the Jabiru LSA 55/2K quickly established Jabiru Aircraft as one of the leaders in the quickly emerging international LSA market. Strong, docile and easily maintainable, the type was factory built and suited to flight training. This early example used by the Bundy Flying School was powered by the Italian engine manufacturer (IAME-KFM112M) who advised shortly after certification that it was ceasing aircraft engine manufacture. The KFM engine and the Jabiru aircraft had been developed around this engine, so Jabiru designed and built their own powerplant.
