    When I first thought about doing this, I was going to build the CH750 and I purchased the DVD's for that plane.  I agree.  They are very helpful.  Shortly after I bought the plans, I started flying an Ikarus C42 at East Troy and that was when I decided I didn't really like the high wing design.  Also, 90% of all my flying was in Piper airplanes so low wing planes just seem "right" for me.  I looked at the DVD's they have for the 601 and I probably will buy them.  I was planning on a trip next month to the factory and a demo flight.

    Hi Larry,
    We spoke about a year ago before I started working on my CH650B. I'm well in to my build and was wondering if you started working on your kit? How about an update?
