regards from sport pilot student in upstate New York interested in Jabirus

Hi Everyone:

I discovered RF looking for folks interested in Jabirus. I'm working toward my sport pilot license on a Flight Design CT but am thinking about a Jabiru because of its large luggage capacity: the ability to carry a couple golf bags is a must for me.

In any case, I've read a bunch of the posts here regarding Jabirus, and really enjoy the generally down-to-earth Australian approach to matters.

I have about 28 hours, haven't soloed yet but could be getting fairly close. Last time I flew the instructor said he didn't touch the controls on three landings.

I'll throw out one question: how important is it to keep the Jabiru hangared as opposed to covered and tied-down? We have cold and nasty winters here, but hangaring costs about US$240/month.

Regards,
