I did not build this 2005 CH601HD, I purchased it flying from Trevor Page who built is from a kit. It took him a little over 2 yrs to build. I basically cleaned up the engine install. The cowl is from CZAW and the only one I know of in Canada. The Rotax 912 has a 3.75" Saber prop extension to fit the cowl, this permits the inside cowl mount of the radiator and oil cooler.

Sorry for the late reply. I do have some pictures that aren't up on the website. Let me know if you are still interested and I'll archive them up and put them up on our site so you can download.

I'm hoping to update my site shortly with new pictures and so on. I just ran out of time to be with the family, run a business, build, AND maintain the site :).

I go to pick it up at the paint shop tomorrow. (I'm just not into painting!!!).

It is fairly big ~300MB so it may take awhile to download. The link will remain active for about 7 days.

The landing lights are LEDs. I put them on both sides and love them! One is pointed a bit down for taxi and the other a bit up for landing. I can also put them in wig-wag mode which helps to be seen even during the day. They were expensive, but in the long run having a no maintenance light was worth it to me. I also was running low on my AMP budget in the plane. The Jabiru only generates around 20AMPs from the alternator and going with traditional landing/taxi lights would have put me in the negative/discharge battery area. I'll get you the brand info - don't remember off the top of my head.

I also went with LED position lights as well. I wanted to go with LED strobes but couldn't find anything that I could retrofit to my existing setup and still be happy with.

For the position lights, I went with the standard 12V LED Whelen Lights. Again, expensive, but it freed up around 4 AMPs. Each standard position light uses about 2 AMPs or about 5 to 6 AMPs total for all 3. The LED Position Lights draw about 1 AMP total for all 3. Combined with LED Landing Light(s) Reduced Draw and it is impossible for me to go in the negative draw area.

I got the 11-06466 X-TREME LED PAIR from the link you sent. If I was only going to do one wing, I get the 2 of 2x2 LED Lights and point one low/one "high" for taxi/landing. However, I like having the 2x4 LED cluster though as the LED lights are bright but don't spread out as much as standard lights so having one on each wing is nice. It also looks better IMHO.

Hi Carlos,

The music was “borrowed” from another video called Animusic. The website for the company is here. You can rent the DVD from Netflix.
