Jim,

Thanks for the kind offer. Once we start the build I'm sure your experience will be a major asset. Yes... Jackson is just down the road a piece...

Kathy and I were at Zenith yesterday and both had the opportunity to sit in the 750 and take Demo rides. It was Kathy's first ride in any small aircraft and she came back beaming...! It was almost a religious experience for her...and she was on the verge of tears. She simply had convinced herself that flying an LSA was beyond her capability and yesterday's flight allowed her to realize that she actually could pilot an LSA as a handicapped person.

She had no difficulty getting in or out of the plane. We both agree that the 750 is a far better choice for us than the 650, given her physical limitations. The Zenith staff were great as always and Rodger was especially helpful in making Kathy's first flight memorable. She was so pumped up we could not leave without buying her a hat and T-shirt...and she talked about the flight all the way back to Farmington.

When I flew with Rodger, I was very impressed with the flying qualities. It was a little bumpy yesterday from the thermals but the 750 remained surprisingly stable. Hands off was straight and level. The plane felt very solid... Very little rudder correction was needed. Coming from flying Stearman's...I won't know what to do with my feet.

We have a Shelby Cobra roadster replica to finish and by that time the full 750 plan set should be available and we will start on the 750.

In the mean time...anybody need a new set of XL-650 Plans?
