- 02.02.2010 >>> Fulfilment of technical requirements certificate. <<<
- After 4 years of testing, researching, preparing technical documentation and various ground and airborne tests The Polish Civil Aviation Office issued approval certificates for construction of our aircraft JK-05 Junior and KR-30 Topaz, placing both aircraft in the register of qualified aircraft types. The certificates have number 1 and 2, which means that we are the first Polish ultralight manufacturer that went successfully through the complicated process of aircraft certification. Earlier, The Polish Civil Aviation Office granted us the certificate of design, production and operation of the aircraft. Now, on the basis of all the above certificates we will be able to improve the quality of service delivered to our client - it concerns both the process of registration and operation.

- 21.09.2008 >>> The first Polish ULM that obtained German type certificate. <<<
- Testing, inspections and examinations of JK-05 junior documentation took 4 years. German Civil Aviation Authorities inspectors asked us to carry our all tests required by German regulations despite the fact that similar tests had been already carried out for the Polish Civil Aviation Authorities. All test were performed by introducing failure loads, so 180% of admissible loads. Test loads of some elements exceeded 14G. JK-05 passed all the tests in flying colours. On the 30th of July 2008 roku DULV (German certifying office) issued Certificate (Musterzulassungsschein fur Luftsportgerate Type Certificate) Nr 714-08 1.
Our German partners make inestimable contribution to the progress of certification process. We are extremely grateful to Dr Ferdinand Stepansky, a famous Polish glider pilot, glider pilot?s diamond badge holder who was totally committed to this project. Dr Stepansky has been living in Germany for many years. His main goal in recent years was to certify the first Polish ultralight aeroplane in Germany.
This is the way the JK-05 aircraft went down in history of Polish aviation as the first and, so far, only design that obtained German type certificate. - 16.09.2008 >>> New pictures of Topaz. <<<
