And, two in the nose of the main gear wheel pants.

You should expect a properly rigged airplane to have a heavy left wing under those circumstances. With a passenger it should fly straight. I find the same thing in our flying club's Cessna 150s. I'm going to appreciate having lateral trim on the 601.

The layout lines on the ribs were almost perfect and took minimal adjustment. I manufactured a tool to reach the inner ribs for adjustment out of 6' of !" PVC with a drywall screw run into the end. Worked perfect. To anyone that has not started there wings and want to check them, it is easy. Using a 4' drywall square on the leading edge check each rivet line for square. If you come up with lines that are 3/8" off you have the mis-drilled ones. ZAC replaced them for free with a 2 minute phone call to Nick. Took about a month to receive them but they sent me the top ones the the first time. So it is on to the Nose ribs and Leading edge starting today. This is a fantastic site for anything XM radio that was posted on the aerolectric site. Lots of great information and good product descriptors. XM is definitely going in the airplane. _http://www.xmfan.com/viewtopic.php?t=24843_ (http://www.xmfan.com/viewtopic.php?t=24843) Cheers Joe Motis 601XL Do not archive ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 02:45:06 PM PST US From: Jack Russell Subject: Re: Zenith-List: 601XL Bottom replacement skins --> Zenith-List message posted by: Jack Russell Joemotis@aol.com wrote: --> Zenith-List message posted by: Joemotis@aol.com Greetings listers, The holes were dead on. The layout lines on the ribs were almost perfect and took minimal adjustment. I manufactured a tool to reach the inner ribs for adjustment out of 6' of !" PVC with a drywall screw run into the end. Worked perfect. Good idea joe. I spent a lot of time trying to line the ribs with a stick from both sides. To anyone that has not started there wings and want to check them, it is easy. Using a 4' drywall square on the leading edge check each rivet line for square. If you don't have a drywall square you can also measure form the inboard edge to rivet line#1. Top and bottom measure should be the same. The front corner should be square.

N701JR took to the air today and climbed like a homesick angel. Chris Heintz designs a sweet plane. Outside of a heavy left wing (a common trait) , she flew well. I think that 40 hours in a small box will get a little old since both my EAA chapters here are out of my area but I'll get through it. Thanks for all the good ideas and advice I've gleaned from all on the list. Keep pulling those rivets, it's worth it!
