    Hi Les,
    You are much further ahead than I thought !! hahaha that's great.
    well, I started out with a plan of having my project done by septempber 2010 but work is getting in the way... i wish I was retired...-:)
    But I think that at the pace I'm going september 2011 is more like the timeframe I'm now looking at. I'm trying to keep building on a regular basis but I'm also taking my piloting lessons at the same time.. should be done with that in about 4 months.
    I'm very excited and motivated...it's time that i don't have as I whish I had.
    When are you planing to have it ready to fly and what engine did you select?
    have fun!!

    Here's the email I just sent to the boys at ZAC, I'll call you when I get a reply:


    pn 75F6-7 (Baggage Back Channel) was added since the original plans.
    In a situation such as this, do I ignore a part I don't have and build according to the original plan set?
    Also, in the photo assembly guide 75FA-1- Revision 2.0 currently on the builders webpage, the part 75F4-8 Bottom Skin Gusset appears to be added. Is this a part for the 750Heavy kit or is it another part added to the 1320 lb kit?

    Suggestion: Post the photo assembly guides for the CH750 1320 lb kit and clearly identify them as being for the 1320 lb. so as not to confuse them with photo assembly guides for the CH750 Heavy.
    And it appears that STOL CH 750 Parts Catalog (1320 lb Edition) was deleted from the builders page. Thanks
