Dale, I'd be happy to swap building tales -- but I sold off most of my Zenith stuff a few years ago... had too many projects (at one time a Soneria, Buttercup and a long-wing CH701). I'm currently refocused on a long-wing (variant of Callbie Wood's metal wings) Corvair-powered Cougar, which I'm planning to operate under LSA... Notwithstanding, my enthusiasm for the CH750 series is pretty obvious and I lurk on the Zenith site regularly...
Although I'm not currently building a Zenith, if you want to see what information there is to share, I'd be happy to know there is a plane builder nearby... I work in DC, so the bulk of the shop time I can steal is on the weekends...

Corvair ran perfectly..Aircraft flew perfectly.. Good engine but I need another build project to keep out of the house. Too old to start new aircraft so will look into different engines for the CH750 airframe.. Plus I have to get rid of stuff before my "bucket" is completely empty......so the grandchildren don't just grow it all away....Ha!
