    Hi Brian, have you gave any thought to which engine you are planning to use in your 640. I am building a Subaru for mine.

    200 hp would be good, Im think I am going to be around 175 or 180 ish with the subaru. Thats ok, I have a friend flying one and he was getting around 7 gph in an RV 9. How far are you on your build?

    also, I use to have Jeff Paden's web site address but I can't find it on this site, do you have it?

    Thats a shame about the web site, it was helpful to look at when I had questions. I have the tail done also and am working on the fuse, Im not sure why I started there before the wings but I did. I'm about 70 or 80% done with the fuse. I am building from scratch so the doors and canopy have kicked my butt. Otherwise it has been pretty smooth. Have you ever flown a ch 640? I was wondering how they fly. Most of my time has been in a cherokee 180. I assume it flies much like that.

    Keep up the good work. It has taken me 5 years to get to this point. Thanks for the compliment on the paint.

    Hi Brian- Got your mesage. I'll try to find out what treatment was used on the interior. I can, however, tell you that the latches are from Hendricks Manufacturing.

    Cheers. Bob

    BTW--The plane will be on Barnstormers (for sale) in the near future.
