The Jericho Disruptive Innovation (JDI) team has prototyped JabX, an uncrewed aerial system based on the Jabiru 400 airframe, as part of Project Camel Train to help move cargo more quickly across Australia’s north.
Super funds with ties to the Queensland Investment Corporation, which is reportedly the preferred bidder for the proposal, are being pushed to “carefully investigate” their involvement with QIC, with UFUAV saying they should look into whether members’ retirement savings could be used.
Jabiru Europe, run in partnership with JDM Aviation, will be based in Darois, France, and serve as a centralised dealership for Jabiru aircraft, engines, parts, and maintenance in the European market.
At a recent field demonstration, a rapidly deployable medical racking system was assembled in just two-and-a-half minutes in wet conditions. The project team has reviewed several multi-rack systems, including those used in RAAF C-130 and C-17 aircraft.
The partnership will see Australian experiments conducted aboard Novespace’s Airbus A310 Zero-G alongside the French space agency CNES, on the world’s largest civilian microgravity research platform.
Citing “significantly elevated” fuel prices and “continued strong demand for travel to Europe”, Qantas and Jetstar will see a two-percentage-point reduction in international capacity for 1Q27, and extend current domestic cuts of five percentage points until the end of September.
