    Stanton's engine is scheduled to go out this week. The engine is for a CH-701 and not a KitFox. At least the invoice indicate this. If you look at the Vikingaircraftengine web site / Zenith, you will find pictures of our own 701 installation. It is an attempt to help everyone installing the engine in the 701 and similar aircraft. This was done the last week. Nobody is sitting around doing nothing here. We work hard. This first batch of engines have taken much longer than expected, between design, prototyping, flight testing, documentation, sales and installations, we have had our hands full. However, this is easing up now when production has been streamlined, no more changes are being made and we are focusing on assembly, sales, service and continued flying. All I can say is that we have an outstanding product and that it takes huge effort to deliver it at the cost we do. I am also sorry about the delays and that we will work on reducing / eliminating them. Jan Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=345754#345754

    I know Dan, and he IS putting the engine in a 701. I think that the reason his complaint ended up on the Kitfox forum is that it was a convenient place to blow off some steam...at least that's my observation/opinion.

    John, of course, I had forgotten you had a system to take the trim forces out. I will be in touch about that and a couple of other things we need. All the best. Kerry Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=345875#345875
