    Hi Zihad, If you need help finishing the aircraft or training, I can come help you. I live in the USA but love going all over the world helping builders. I have built three Zenith CH-701s and I am an FAA Gold Seal and Master Flight Instructor. I also hold an Airline Transport License both here in the USA and in The Philippines.

    Hello Zihad

    I

     use for anti corrosion ( Cortec) that supplied with the kit and Where I live in the desert (Riyadh) I think it is more than enough .

    For painting I have chosen auto primer it is called Sikken which come in gray or paige color. at first we cleaned the surface with lacquer thinner and sanded it with sand paper no. 400 then sprayed the primer for future applications. I think there are many other ways to paint , and if you ask people who are more expert than me they will help you better .

     

    BTW, what is the engine you are going to use for the kit , ?

     

    Wish you good luck

    G'day Zinhad,

    Nice to see your progress.  Did KPT Siva tell you about the crash history of 9M-EEL?

    There is no better testimony to the ruggedness of the design than the lack of injuries received after it hit a light pole and lost a wing near TUDM Simpang after an engine failure.  And to be able to be repaired to the marvellous rebuild that you have flown in.

    Is your aircraft USM sponsored?

    Regards,

    Paul Saccani
