9.2  SUPPLEMENTS  

This section consists of a series of supplements, each being self contained and providing details 
and procedures associated with the fitment of optional and special purpose equipment. 
 
Each  supplement  contains  a  brief  description,  and  where  applicable,  operating  limitations, 
emergency and normal procedures, and the effect on aircraft performance.  The data contained in 
a supplement adds to, supersedes, or replaces similar data in the basic POH when operating in 
accordance with the provisions of that supplement.   
 
The Log of Supplements shows the CASA Approved Jabiru Aircraft Supplements available for the 
J230-D at the date of publication of this POH.  The Log of Supplements page can be utilised as a 
Table  of  Contents  for  this  section.    A  check  mark  (

)  in  the  Install  column  indicates  that  the 

corresponding supplement is incorporated in the POH. 
 
It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that new Jabiru Aircraft Supplements received after receipt 
of the POH are recorded on the Log of Supplements page. 
 
In the event that the aircraft is modified at a non Jabiru Aircraft facility through an STC or other 
approval method, it is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that the proper supplement, if applicable, 
is installed in the handbook and the supplement is properly recorded on the Log of Supplements 
page as amended from time to time.
