Thanks Wayne for welcoming me to the forum.  First time I have been a part of any forum so just going to feel my way through when I get the opportunity  

Absolutely, we will try to meet up. I'm leaving in a few weeks for a China trip but will be back mid-October. That's when my build project gets underway full speed. I'll be keeping up with things and planning while I'm gone but looking forward to buckling down in October. I'll reach out when I'm back.

Do you fly yours down from Canada in the winter? I'll reach out when I'm back.

Hey Wayne do you have or can send me the link to print the service manual for the 701 with the 25hr..50 hr ...100hr manintenance to be done I seen it  before but cant find it on the internet...Thanks if so give me a call>>>

can t find it must be getting old. I think its oldtimers

Thank you for the warm welcome, did you scratchbuild your plane? looks great.

Hi Wayne,

Thank you for the nice welcome!  I look forward to moving ahead on my 701 project.  I'm finding it a bit challenging picking up on a project mid stream but I'll get up to speed one of these days.  Yes, please give me a shout when you are heading to OSH.

Rob

..Thanks Wayne, for adding me to the group...looking forward to learn more about the different models and other builders' various innovations, etc...

Thanks for the welcome Wayne

Hey Wayne, yes I think you are talking about a guy named Flavelle, his plane has the Clear door's. Is that the plane?

Thanx for the welcome Wayne. Nice bird ya got there. 

P Sound is on my sojourn list.

Cheers 

Herb

Thanks Wayne, great to hear from you.

Hi Wayne...Most likely I'll be at Sebring and Sun & Fun. Thanks for your kind comment regarding my work. Still have a long way to go.

Keep in touch!

Jim

Hope to see ya there! 

Thanks for the welcome.  I have my plans and waiting for the tail kit. Hope to get started by the New Year.

Jim

Wayne

I doubt I'll be at Sebring.  I visited the factory in October and saw the rudder workshop at Deland.  You are correct in saying it is a good idea to have the experts standing by to give advice when needed.

Jim 

I hope to get to know the zenith crew as time goes on and as I get the build going.  I do plan on going to sun-n-fun as I should have a few questions zenith by then.

Jim

Yes, it would be nice to meet, i have a hanger second row ,second in from the road. C8

Good looking plane you have. Don

Ted Cohen is in Fred’s hanger with Ron, i took the floats off Ted’s plane and put on jeep gear. He has it up for sale. I my hanger ,i took the floats off of Dave’s plane and put on jeep gear. My Vans is in there also that should be sold this week. I am looking for something else. Started fixing up a KIt fox but it will be a while before that is done.

Don

Ted has a cirrus, 172 on floats, and the 701. He lives on Lake Simco. Ron and Ted are blood brothers

Ted’s 701 is in Fred’s hanger at CYOS, he brought it there for me to take the floats off. I live near there and was not going to drive to lake Simco to work on his plane. 

I am in the midths of building a set of anphib floats that go on a Murphy Rebel that belongs to my neighbour at CYOS . That is a lot of work and would not do it again.  The Rebel is a nice plane.

i have no info on the other Zenith ptoducts. 

they are Rebel floats, 1800 displacement. A good , strong float.

Wayne,  who knows why a cylinder develops a crack?  Unless you send it away for analysis to see if it was a material or manufacturing defect I would be guessing.  If I am going to guess I would say it may be "under" designed.  ULPower has increased the thickness of the flange and cylinder base since my early version of the engine.  As it stands now, I have replaced only that one cylinder with the newer version and will keep any eye on the others.

Congratulation on your new hangar...I'm envious!! Cheers and Merry Christmas...Dave

Hello Wayne did you get a  chance to test fly the plane for the new season? Flew Teds 701 from owensound to edenvale yesterday..nice flying airplane. Flew mine last weekend and finally the radio seems to be working properly. we have to get together at some point Im ready for my climb test and file to get away from the airport tired of flying circles around for 25 miles...maybe you can fly up to owensound just call me first to see if Im up? Ron and Val

Thanks Wayne,

We met at the Thursday lunch 4-5 weeks ago.. I was the guy asking all the questions about your 701. I’d love to come have a look at yours sometime.

cheers

Hi Wayne,

Enjoyed the Midland Fly-In very much ... it was good meeting you as well. Don't know if Edenvale is in the cards at this time but hope to see you there.

Cheers, Tony

Thanks Wayne,

I hope so also.

Steve Wicklander

Thanks Wayne, beauty hangar!

Sure thing Wayne, looking forward to it

Thanks Wayne, I will.

Hello Wayne

Sorry it took me a little while to get back to you. Absolutely. Drop me a line when you are in Florida. I am presently working ot two kitfoxes a 3 and a 5. I have been in search for a zenith 750 but the prices have gone up and I figure I will wait and find a project that someone has not finished ... 

Reach out to me when you get in

Thank You

Robert

So you're going to be here around January 2020 right

I posted an ad here and cannot for the life of me find out how to delete it and post a new one. I have a 912uls complete engine for sale and was hoping to list it here

I don't think the Sebring show will be held anymore

thanks for the answer now all I have to do is find a plane and figure out how this site works without making someone mad haha

well I do not have the option of leaving the wife home so I will continue the search for an 750 or 801 finished or partial even some thing that might have had a repairable damage 

Hi Wayne, thanks for reaching out.  I am just getting started, I have the plans and about to order the Kit.  I hope our paths cross, I am about 30 minutes from you (less if by air).

Dave

Hi Wayne,

Thanks for the message. Your aircraft photos look great. Long way to go before I get to that point--one day at a time and my garage may sprout an airplane eventually.

--Dan (or Clyde)

Hi Wayne!
Glad to join you, looking forward to meeting you when this thing blows over.

Take care and stay safe,

Nelson

Hello Wayne,  Hope you are well.

I've got a question.. What kind of rubber are you using in your spring clamp?(sandwiched between your spring and fuselage)

I was doing some touch and go's the other day and one side fell out! I'm wondering if I can just cut up an old rubber tire or a black rubber plumbing hose to use as the material (and tie it in with metal wire).

That being said, I'll replace the other side at the same time, so the next question is:

Where did you support your aircraft from when you lifted it?

Cheers

Tom
