Design and development

The J160 features a strut-braced high-wing, an enclosed cabin with two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration accessed by doors, fixed tricycle landing gear and a single engine in tractor configuration. [1]

The aircraft is made from composite materials. Its 8.12 m (26.6 ft) span wing has an area of 8.04 m2 (86.5 sq ft) and mounts flaps. The standard engine available is the 80 hp (60 kW) Jabiru 2200 four-stroke powerplant. [1]

The design was developed into the Jabiru J170, by adding the wing from the Jabiru J430, for the light-sport aircraft category. [1]
