Peter Jones of Tauranga, NZ in 2011 – 12 built a single-seat low-wing monoplane said to be based on a 1950s design from India known as the Monsoon.

Mr Jones was the lecturer in charge at the East Sydney Technical College when classes were held in the 1930s in relation to aircraft design and construction and he himself was involved in the design and construction of a number of aircraft of his own design, and with the assistance

Early in the 20th century Mr A W Jones went to England and obtained his pilot’s licence. On his return in 1913 he imported a Caudron G.II fitted with a 26-kw (35-hp) to 30-kw (40-hp) Anzani engine.

This was an ultra-light aircraft which was registered with the RAA as 10-1477 and was registered from 22 September 1995 until 16 January 1999 when it was retired.

Little is known about this ultralight aircraft but one is known to have been involved in an accident near Yeppoon Qld on 6 April 1985.

The Joey was probably one of the first powered gliders in Australasia, and was designed and built in Australia by Keith Jarvis of South Australia and placed in production.

The workhorse of the German Luftwaffe in the transport role during World War II, the prototype Ju-52/ba (D-1974)

The Just Aircraft SuperStol is a development of the company’s Highlander developed for the amateur-built market and it was designed and marketed by Just Aircraft of Walhalla

In the 1930s the German aviation industry was attempting to develop a new aeronautical prestige on an international basis

Designed and built by Junkers Flugzeug Und Motorenwerke A-G, the Ju 87, known as the Stuka was perhaps the most famous dive-bomber of World War II.

The JS-3 Rapture is one of a series of high performance gliders built in South Africa by Jonker Sailplanes the first model being the JS-1, the prototype of which flew for the first time on 12 December 2006 and the company immediately became known as a builder of world-class sailplanes.

The W-33 was developed by Junkers concurrently with the W-34 series, both being virtually identical, and in the ultimate a development of the F-13.

The Jora was a light aircraft produced in the Czech Republic produced by Jora SRO in Vraclav. Looking very similar to the Fantasy Air Cora, which made its public debut at the Fredrichshafen Air Show in Germany in May 1997, it becamepopular due to its low cost and good performance.

The W.34 series was developed concurrently with the W.33 by Junkers using virtually an identical basic design, and both were refinements of the F.13 and built as general purpose transports.

The McCandless M-4 Gyroplane was a British single-seater ultra-light autogyro first flown in 1961 and was initially powered by a Triumph motor-cycle engine, this later being replaced by a Norton motor-cycle engine but this was also found not to be suitable for installation in such a machine and was abandoned

On 27 June 1956 the prototype of a single-seat light monoplane, designed by M Marcel Jurca for amateur construction, was flown in France.

Designed by Rimn Isaminskas in Los Angeles, an aeronautical engineer, the Jungster series of light aircraft were simple, strong aircraft, the Jungster I being an aerobatic biplane. The design was based on the German wartime aerobatic training biplane, the Bucker Jungmeister. Designed in 1962 and built to 80% scale, the

The Gnatsum (Mustang spelt backwards) is a 2/3rdscale replica of the North American P-51 Mustang

The prototype of the Junkers A-50 tandem two-seat, all-metal, light monoplane was flown for the first time in 1928.

The Jurca MJ-8 and MJ-80 are amateur-built scale replicas of the World War II Focke Wulf Fw-190 fighter aircraft, the former being to 75% scale and the latter full scale.

The F.13 was a development of a series of light transports designed by Professor Hugo Junkers, they all being all-metal monoplanes with corrugated skinning to provide strength.

The MJ-10 is a 75% scale replica of the Supermarine Spitfire designed by the late Marcel Jurca in France and is made available in plan form for construction by amateur builders.

The Junkers G.31 series of commercial transports was one of the success stories of the 1930s, and its operation in New Guinea in the freight role has gone down as one of the important annals in aviation history.

The Gnatsum series of aircraft was designed and built in France by Marcel Jurca and the name Gnatsum is Mustang reversed.

It seems there were two Junkers J.1 aircraft, the first, the Blechesel,known as the‘Tin Donkey” or “Sheet Metal Donkey” being the world’s first practical all-metal monoplane and appeared at the beginning of World War

The Escapade and Highlander are produced by Just Aircraft as light sporting aircraft in kit-plane form at the company’s premises at Walhalla in South Carolina.

The Barracuda was designed by Geoffrey Siers, a former RAF pilot and design engineer with British Aerospace, who moved to the United States in 1964.

In 1907 L J R (Leslie John Robert) Jones was born on 4 June 1886 at Bathurst

The VL-3 Evolution was marketed by Jean-Marie and Jean-Baptiste Guisset who operated a training organisation in Belgium, they taking over the operation of the airfield in 1980.

Leslie John Robert Jones, in conjunction with Dr N P Boulton, in 1927 commenced the design and construction, and later testing

The Societe des Avions Jodel, formed in 1946, designed and built the single-seat Model D-9 Bebe light monoplane as a cheap, easy-to-build-and-fly aircraft for amateur constructors.

Designed as a two-seat development of the Jodel D-9, the D-11 became the basic model in a series of Jodel two-seat, light aircraft designs for amateur and commercial production.

The Jabiru J-120 is one of a range of light aircraft designed in Australia and built by Jabiru at its facility at Bundaberg in Queensland for the recreational aviation market in Australia.

The D-18 Sovereign was derived from the Jodel D-11 series but it is smaller and lighter all round so that it may be fitted with smaller engines, ie in the 41-kw (55-hp) to 60-kw (80-hp) class.

The J160 was designed to meet JAR-VLA European airworthiness standards by Jabiru Aircraft Pty Ltd of Bundaberg, QLD.

The D-112 Club series was developed from the D-11 Club series, embodying some major design refinement, in the late 1960s, being the most popular of the Jodel series of light touring and sporting monoplanes in France

The Jabiru J230 series is the culmination of the series fitted with a six-cylinder Jabiru engine and aimed at the registered general aviation market.

In about 2012 Jabiru Aircraft of Bundaberg, QLD was looked at extending its range of aircraft and looked at building a helicopter and a twin-engine variant of the Jabiru light sporting aircraft.
