Flying the new Zenith CH 750 Super Cruzer with a 72-inch Sensenich propeller (ground adjustable composite three-blade), Zenith Aircraft's Sebastien Heintz and Roger Dubbert discuss the popular new CH 750 design.
"The new all-metal, high-wing airplane combines characteristics of two established members of the CH 750 family: the load-carrying utility of the STOL CH 750 Super Duty and the higher cruise performance of the CH 750 Cruzer.
"The result is a 2+1 aircraft — two side-by-side seats plus a rear jump seat — intended to give recreational pilots an airplane capable of genuine cross-country traveling without abandoning the short-field versatility associated with the Zenith name.
"That distinction is important. The Super Cruzer is not intended as a replacement for Zenith’s existing airplanes. Rather, it extends the family in a different direction. Zenith says it plans to continue offering its earlier models while positioning the Super Cruzer for pilots who want increased cruise performance while retaining useful load, cabin room, visibility and short-field capability.
"The prototype that arrived at Oshkosh was powered by a stock 180-hp Lycoming O-360 turning a three-blade, ground-adjustable Sensenich propeller. Initial testing produced cruise speeds above 120 mph, while VNE is listed at 160 mph. The airplane also features a 50-inch-wide cabin with large bubble doors and a center-mounted Garmin G3X display console."
