Jawabu Aerospace — Interactive Aircraft Selection Tool

Aviation | MRO Advisory & Implementation

Interactive Aircraft Selection Tool — Mission → Specification → Aircraft

Answer the dropdowns below. The panel on the right narrows to a specific aircraft as you go — your answers do the selecting.

Cardinal rule: the tool prioritises types already registered in Kenya. Where the best mission fit is not yet on the register, it is flagged as first-of-type with the extra steps that then apply (see the expandable note in the results panel).

A. Mission Drivers DRIVES RESULT

These six answers compute the recommendation.

Passengers to carry

The peak number you must seat.

Airfield surfaces used

The most demanding surface across your network — decides the all-terrain requirement.

Longest sector required

Furthest non-stop leg, with reserves.

Speed vs field access & economy

A jet buys speed; a turboprop buys field access and lower cost.

Engine preference

Affects economics, over-terrain comfort and insurance.

Acquisition budget (airframe)

Indicative capital for the aircraft itself.

B. Registration Preference DRIVES RESULT

Anchors the cardinal rule.

Registration approach

How strongly to prioritise a proven Kenya type over the ideal mission fit.

C. Context (recorded for your brief)

These refine the study but don't override the core result.

Operating model

Primary mission

Cabin expectation

Target in-service

First-of-type considerations (if not a Kenya type)

Consideration	Already a Kenya type	First of type
KCAA acceptance	Routine (AC AWS001D)	TC validated vs acceptable code; longer
Maintenance / CAMO	Approvals likely exist	New approvals or foreign contract
Spares & tooling	Local pool; fast AOG	Initial provisioning + type tooling
Crew type-rating	Available locally	Overseas rating & sim; longer lead
Timeline / cost / risk	Shorter, lower, de-risked	Longer, higher, more risk
