This week, Angela Stevenson interviews Susan Woods, Business Manager of Jabiru Aircraft & Engines (Manufacturing & Sales).
Sue’s perspectives on the manufacturing industry and general aviation as a whole, as a Business Manager and private pilot, make a valuable contribution to the body of knowledge about the effects of the pandemic on the industry. Sue also brings an interesting perspective to the table regarding a possible resurgence of recreational flying post-pandemic!
So, what do you think? Will recreational flying see a resurgence?

Are you more likely now to buy a plane? Now that fuel is so cheap?

Do you agree that manufacturing won’t really take off? Will Australian’s simply want the cheapest product or will they buy local?

Very nice interview. I always love see strong women in aviation, your questions were excellent and the answers even more so.
I hope Jabiru is still keeping it’s head above the water so it can fly high and far when this is all over.
When I learnt to fly in 1990 one of my instructors was the Late Senja Robey who was like a pioneer for women in aviation in Australia.
