If anybody could help I would appreciate it.

My 750 is nearly complete at as a kit.  When I built the wings I ran the supply fuel lines at the lower fitting and the vent line to the fuel tank on the opposite side on top of the tank. At the time I didn’t consider what type of engine I was going to install. Now that I have decided to install a fuel injected engine, I realize that I need use the vent lines I ran  for the return of the fuel to the tanks. But because there are only two…

Yesterday I finished the last of the wing ribs. All nose, rear, root and flaperon ribs are done and I have cut material to form flaperon spars, rear wing channels and cut material for the wing spars.

Question, I wanted to post this as a status as many do but I don't know how.  Can anyone teach an old dog a new trick --thanks.

Iam starting a 650 on Vancouver island just wondering if there are any 650s being built or flying in BC?

Is there some type of boot for the two threaded rods that control the front nose wheel? Trying to keep engine compartment smells from entering the cabin area.

A while ago I bought a set of wheels and brakes off a crashed Savannah.  The seller was in Adelaide, so I asked a bloke who lives nearby and who bought the engine from the same plane to pick them up for me.  The seller told me he'd throw in any other Savannah bits in the hangar.

Well, he delivered them today, and not just the wheels - but the main gear, the nosewheel fork, the rudder pedals with toe brakes and master cylinders, the flaperon mixer, Y-stick... and…

After taking a several month break (mostly to gather monies for materials to go forward) I’m back.  I have resolved my immediate problem of having to wait to purchase materials at least to carry me through the airframe stage.  That said, in the process of getting my act together I purchased a set of plans for the Ch 750.

 Yeah I know, but these STOL guys just seem to be having so much fun.   I will be placing an order for materials this week to scratch build my 750.  Hope to be able…

I took ownership of my new engine today. Now it's time to strip all the unwanted parts off and take a good look see.  Once I strip it down I will post a video with a walk around.  If anyone is like me, you have spent hours looking for a good video of the engine, or even good pictures.  This is a 2010 Honda Fit l15a7 engine.

I had shot a video with cockpit audio showing how I do slow flight, stalls, more.

Plugging in the cable should have been on the checklist.

I am planning on "re-shooting". Any requests regarding my cockpit\701 operations?

Any other requests?

Dear fellow builders,

Winter has once again set in once again in Pennsylvania. The geese are back by the thousands. All the abandoned quarries are wall-to-wall geese. Living in a cement producing area, quarries provide safe haven from coyotes, fox and stray cats. Each morning like a living cork screw they leave in search of winter wheat, corn and bean fields. For some reason the first stop is my strip. There they hold court. I cannot identify the leader, or do they have a pa system,…

Raven Honda Fit Engine  Conversion(Pt. 2)



We're now on:  'How do we plan to optimize and streamline the auto engine to aircraft process' from our initial outline below.



Come New Years we enter our 19th year of converting auto engines for aircraft.  After doing both Reduction Drive Kits and Complete FWF Engine packages and working with a lot of great builders of all different skill sets, my number one observation of the homebuilt aircraft build process is that if you as a…

I am starting to build a 650 has anybody regesterd the 650 with a larger weight than the 1360lb posted

Last week the Seattle area became unseasonably cold. During the past three years that the 7-Oh-Fun has been flying we had not seen temps in the 20s.

I guess that we are a bit like a 'sensible Santa' in our part of the world... we fly over the African Bush and look for communities that need some health education and then drop them a package!  (no chimney, no reindeer, no toys)... our Rotax 912iS powered 701 works really hard... and today we dropped over 100 packages to rural communities - some which have never had even a motorcycle to them!…
