He was born in my house this Zenair 701 with only the plans of the plant.
I've had help from many friends, experienced professionals.
Powered by friends as Wagner Dias and Lemos Joao Batista, Ace pilots.
Me and my friend Arnaldo Baraúna (experienced aircraft mechanic, coming from mining Itaituba) started the

Construction of 3833 Zenair number.
We did all parts of aluminum.
Shares of iron (Booth, balance, engine mount) were made by his friend Ronaldo Felipe Teixeira.
He also concluded that the assembly of the aircraft (installation of the wings, controls, motor 2Si, Balancing).
I did the flight tests with the help of experienced pilot and friend, Edson Timpone.
I flew a lot with the engine 2Si and decided to retire it.
After much research and dedication we are re-placing this plane in flight.
Yes, this new configuration for the reliable VW engine can fly higher and greater autonomy.
The hood was drawn up by his friend Schneider, an experienced professional with fiber.
The fire wall made of stainless steel.
The engine ask see the video demo.
It contains all the details.
Thank you, I see that you liked our work.
Soon I'll post pictures and video flying!

Hey Julio...

Nice cowel for your VW... did you build it yourself? You have an interesting setup there! VW engine, belted redrive and a turbo... how heavy is this combo setup?
