Zenith Aircraft Company announced the release of a major update of the Zenith CH 650 kit, now featuring matched-hole technology for significantly easier assembly. This innovation marks a major milestone in the company’s commitment to making aircraft building more accessible and enjoyable for aviation enthusiasts.

Celebrating the 40th anniversary of the low-wing Zenith CH 600 series design from aeronautical engineer Chris Heintz, the Zenith CH 650, known for its superior performance, versatility, and comfort, is now even more builder-friendly. The final hole size matched-drilled technology ensures that all parts align perfectly, reducing the need for measurements and adjustments. This advancement not only saves time but also enhances the precision and quality of the final build.

Key Features of the Zenith CH 650 Kit:
Matched-Hole Technology: Pre-drilled holes ensure perfect alignment, simplifying the assembly process.
All-Metal Construction: Durable and lightweight, providing excellent performance, longevity and ease of assembly.
Comprehensive Support: Zenith Aircraft offers extensive builder support, including detailed manuals and customer service.
Customizable Options: Builders can choose from a variety of engine options and configurations to suit their needs.

Sebastien Heintz, President of Zenith Aircraft Company, stated, “Our goal has always been to make aircraft building as straightforward and rewarding as possible. The introduction of matched-hole technology in the Zenith CH 650 kit is a game-changer for builders, allowing them to focus more on the joy of building and flying their own aircraft.”
