Zenith Aircraft hosted a hands-on kit airplane building workshop class in Howell, Michigan, on October 10 and 11, 2025.
Co-hosted by EAA Chapter 1056, the workshop is to introduce first-time aircraft builders to the tools and skills needed to build their own all-metal Zenith kit aircraft. Sebastien Heintz and son Calvin traveled to central Michigan to hold the workshop class at Livingston County Airport in Howell.

Thanks also participants and sponsors Oliver and Martina Reik of Midwest Flying Machines, as well as Phil Cook, CFI of Lavion. Jan and Alissa of Viking Aircraft Engines also participated to share information about their auto conversion engines.
