Hi Tom! Thanks for the friend request. I am still actively building my Super Duty. I have the tail done and halfway through the flaperons and slats. Just ordered the wing kit. Are you still in the St George area?

I just got on the forum and saw your 2915 friend request so accepted. I have moved to Oregon and still have my 750 kit on the shelf. I have been building a Onex, thought the little plane would be a faster build, boy was I wrong. It is coming along but fabricating all the parts has taken a lot of time. I still want to get the 750 going but must finish the Onex first since having two projects going at once is not possible. Anyway I would like to know how you like your plane if you still are flying it.

That would be great. I spend most of the winter at our place near mesquite Nv. That is where I built and fly my plane.

HI Tom, I will be glad to have another zenith builder in the area. I will be glad to show you  hanger 110. I will also be glad to help if you need it.

Tom...have not figured out the CHAT feature????

Not going to Oshkosh (want to...BUT) my daughter is getting married that week and my wife put her foot down :>(

Hi Tom, would be glad to introduce you to as many builders down here in the st george area and also cedar city.

My hangar at hurricane is 9 south 2 east.

Hi Tom,

Thanks for the friend add! My husband and I are hangared in Spanish Fork. If you ever fly this way, stop by and see if we're in. Hangar #73.

Thanks Tom,

I guess my wife has reason to want me to wait until I complete the HOUSE we've been building, "pay-as-we-go" since June 1992. It is about 98% done, but several things should be done before starting an other project.

Most wives would have been in divorce court before two years passed! She really has been very supportive, and even is not objecting to my building the plane, just not yet.... (Incentive to hurry completing the house.) I also need her cooperation so I can eat her fine cooking while working on the plane.

I will have to complete another project to raise money for the rest of the kit. I have a VINTAGE MINI-EXCAVATOR that needs restoration. It was very essential in the construction of our house and in my business in the 1980's. Unbenown to me it is one of only 106 ever made during the one year production, and the MODEL for all other mini-excavators made since. MINI"S did not become popular for over 20 years later. I hope it will provide funds to make a really nice CH750. 

Hi Tom.

Lovely 701 - and lots of room to fly it in.  I think I'll have a bit more of a chore finding open area for test flying in North Jersey.  But hey, challenges make it all the more worthwhile.

Best,

Joe

Heath can't even see the line he has crossed.  I suspect many more than you and I do - they are just reluctant to admit it.

Hey, thats great news and must be exciting.    

I had actually completed 50% of a 701 before switching to the 750.     I took advantage of the super low Euro and bought the Rotax 912ULS 2.      IMHO, still nothing close in power plants, especially for torque and altitude performance, except, of course the 914 which would be spectaculor.   Now if I just had a few more $$$ ....

Finally found hanger space and can hang the engine and wings so hope to be up soon.

Cheers

Hi Tom - you'd asked about the color on my panel - I used rattle can "Appliance Epoxy" white.  Of course it's not a true epoxy, but it's adhered better than any other paint I'd tried.  I bought it at Home Depot, but I don't recall the brand name.  FWIW, I'd also tried the same paint in black on another part of my airplane, but didn't have as good of luck with that.

Thanks Tom for the info on the hangers.

I really like your instrument panel. It's clean and simple.

Tom,

Welcome to the family.

I wish you the all the best with your project.

If you ever get the chance to visit the Zenith factory please take the time to stop by our builder assist facility too. We like to have visitors here and we are right here in Mexico, Mo. just a couple of miles from them.

Take care and good luck,
