Ski Flying 2012
I got back from Arizona hours ahead of a storm that dumped 11 inches of heavy wet snow followed with 30 - 50 mph winds. I use a snowblower to clear the hangar door, saves my back and allows the tail to clear the bi-fold door.

That is the Zenith FWF Rotax 912S pkg. for the CH750. The motor mount is a bed style, the mount (& cowling) is extended 6 inches forward because the CH750 is 10 inches longer in the fuselage than the CH701. One of the nicest engine mounts I have seen on a CH701 is the Zenith supplied dynafocal ring mount engine & cowl. Radiator & oil cooler mounted inside the cowls. Stu Duncan's CH701 has this setup. Oddly enough I have the same cowls & bed style Rotax 912S mount (shorter mount) on my 2005 CH601HD... when the cowling was sold by CZAW Aircraft Works and Chip Erwin in Europe.

Hi Bob, Nice photo! Is that a stock CH750 cowling from Zenair? I wonder if it would fit a CH701? Do you have the Rotax 912S and what kind of exhaust system/muffler are you using? I'm planning on changing my engine mount, cowling, muffler and oil cooler in the near future. Safe flying.
