    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Weston, Jim" <Jim.Weston@delta.com> Don, I have some good news for you. He is wrong. I live in Georgia, and a DAR out of Griffin, Georgia inspected and approved my 601HDS in 1998. He said that he thought it was a neat design. I can't remember his name, but I can look it up.

    --> Zenith-List message posted by: gpjann@juno.com Project: Zodiac 601HDS powered with Corvair 110HP. I'm presently trying to design my VFR electrical layout for my project, and while I have experience with electrical layouts with magnetos, I need some help in designing the engine portion centered around William Wynne's Corvair conversion using front mounted starter and alternator. I would greatly appreciate any help you might be able to offer. Thanks, Greg Jannakos gpjann@juno.com 770-277-1637

    --> Zenith-List message posted by: Michel Therrien <mtherr@yahoo.com> Do you know about the AeroElectric Connection book and the AeroElectric forum (also on Matronics system)? This would be a great place to start. The book provides a lot of educational information and a series of electrical diagrams that you can use as a starting point. Then, more specific questions can be submitted on the discussion forum.

    Subject: Re: HELP
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: Joemotis@aol.com The Aero-Electric Connection is beyond the Bible for Electrical information for wiring your airplane. If you do not have this book buy it now before you design or hook up anything. After reading it once you will know a whole lot more than you ever thought you needed too, the second reading you will start to understand it, and by the third and beyond you will be using it for a diagnostic tool and a textbook. And, the spamcan jokes will have you rolling... and thats a good thing God I hate that ***** Good Luck Joe Motis I.B.E.W.
