Comment by Mark Taeger on November 1, 2022 at 4:37pm

Anyone building or flying the 750 series aircraft around the St. Augustine FL area?  Free pair of hands to help with build (I'm trying to see/learn what's involved with such a project). Also flying, (PPL VFR), split costs  etc. if someone out there finds themselves flying alone all the time.

Thanks

Mark

Presently installing the one piece fiberglass bubble doors. Is there a technique to "relax" the frames for a more consistent  flow with the fuselage. Thought of using a heat gun. Any suggestions?

Has anyone installed adjustable struts?  If so what method did you use?  I am looking at 750 or 801.

Someone here sent me a link to a site showing how to delete the banana slot and go to a bellcrank and bearing.  I cant find the message or the line.  

If you have this information available please resend it so I can continue to plan and work.  

Thanks guys!

Wanted-I'm looking for the new design flap actuator.  If anyone has one for sale, I'd be interested.  Otherwise I'm going to make my own.  Thanks

Hey there good people, I'm wrapping up my fuel system repairs an need the correct part number and size for the rivets so I can re install the top wing skins. 

I don't have any of the build plans or docs etc and I can find my way onto the online version.

Thanks in advance.

I sleeved my plastic brake lines with thick clear vinyl tubing over their entire exposed length, then bonded the clear tubing to the edge of the landing gear with a silver adhesive silicone. Protects the tubing and the leading edge of the landing gear from rocks. There is no abrasion, nor any rub points. It hasn't come unstuck after 4 years in service.

Wondering if anyone has built straight skis for their 701 that used Bob McDonalds build plans? If so do you have any pictures you could share and how do you like them? 

cheers

Has anyone heard about what happened to the guy or company that was making the small digital gages? He was on the Zenith site and they were in color and looked nice.

I used JB weld to mount mine, has held 4 years now

Comment by Doug Cole on July 3, 2021 at 6:15pm

I ordered a set of brake line fairings from Zenith to take the place of the zip ties that are currently supporting my brake lines as they run down the rear of the landing gear leg.  I'm wondering what adhesive to use to attach them to my gear legs.  Has anyone had any success installing these?  If so, what adhesive did you use?  Thanks in advance for any help.
