    Hi Bobby

     I noticed the weight of youre aircraft, after the mods.My 601 XLB is very close to its first flight. I weighed it yesterday,Left side-305Ibs, Right-285 lbs, Nose209lbs.

    Jabiru 6, steam gauges, 2 axis auto pilot,landing lights, long range tanks,no wheel pants.

    I was wondering what you had in yours, as the weights are very close.

     Regards

    Airplane is back in the air after considerable engine re-work and mods. Added 45 amp alternator and new ignition coils.
