Ron...I'm doing pre-cover inspection now on my CH701. How may drill holes for drainage did you inspector specify ? Were drain holes specified in the wings in addition to the fuselage ?

Thanks for the compliments on the 701 videos, I try hard to share what’s going on. My airport identifier is 12WV, it is on airnav also if u want to look it up. Glad your staying with a 701,I really like the way they perform, I have you beat a little on the time, I have about 570 on mine, over 100 of those in the last year!

stay in touch and if u want to drop in sometime let me know.

Ron, the flat spring gear is shorter take off ,because of ground effect lift ,  easier to enter / exit and easier to fuel , but too low for some piers

Hi Ron. I do remember you ,didn't see you last year at Zenith Open House in Midland. I am still based in NC3 Brampton, are you going to keep your plane in Bradford? Did you buy your plane locally. I have called you a few times over the last few years but you never answer.Hope to run into you soon now that your back in the air. Tks Wayne
