    Subject: Skyshop--601XL composite landing gear
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: danny@skyshops.org Unfortunately we do not sell 601XL composite landing gear . The reason we dont sell the composite landing gear is because it will not fit the US version of the 601XL. The system is completely different for attaching and would have to be installed early stages of assembly of the fuselage. In addition this modification is not approved by Zenith. Therefore we are not offering this to the US market at this time. Thanks for all the support during the year. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from Danny & Zaneta www.Skyshop.org

Goodings Subject: Zenith-List: Re: Oil temp. on 701 of 130oF --> Zenith-List message posted by: "John M. Goodings" <goodings@yorku.ca> I second the advice that you should check the reliability of your temperature gauge before blocking off the coolant radiator. 130oF sounds really rather unbelievably low. I have had five faulty gauges, nearly all of which had to be replaced, and all of which, of course, were out of warranty. These included the tach for my 912S (Mitchell, read about 2/3 of the correct value, and nearly cost me the engine), a magnetic compass (Airpath, Southern Field, there was one point where it stuck), an oil pressure gauge (VDO, it reads 2/3 of the correct value, checked with an accurate pressure gauge in the line with the engine running; I am living with this one, because I know it reads 40 psi when the correct value is 60), non-sensitive altimeter (UMA, read 300 feet low), and a 30-0-30 ammeter (VDO, would not centre, but this one was partly my fault). All were new instruments when installed, although several had been sitting on a shelf in my (heated) basement for several years (thus, out of warranty). I am rather ticked about this; it has been expensive. Thus, from my experience, it is reasonable to suspect a faulty gauge!

Paul contact Al Etherington as he is in your area and may be able to find a closer dealer but if not then contact Golden Triangle Specialty Metals in Cambridge. That is who I but my metal from and I have not been able to find a cheaper supplier locally with the 6061 in stock.

    Subject: Re: 6061-t6 in Canada
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: John Montgomery <1armbandit@rogers.com> Bill, In your area try to find a manufacturer or metal supplier who uses aluminium or other metals, ie. a shop that builds milk trucks or pressure vessels, etc. If they cannot supply you with 6061, they probably can tell you who deals with metal stock in the Maritimes. Probably located in either Moncton, Truro, or most likely Halifax/Dartmouth. In my case here in Ottawa the metal supplier I was referred to is a manufacturerer of stainless steel kitchen counters, steam lines, institutional kitchen gear, etc. They use a wide variety of metals and also sell metals to the public. I put an order in and 2 weeks later they got it in from Montreal with their regular shipment. regards, John M., Ottawa, Canada Bill Stuart wrote: >--> Zenith-List message posted by: "Bill Stuart" <billstuart25@hotmail.com> > >Hello list. > >I am plans building a 701sp here in Canada , and have run into a prob that >other builders have no doubt had ,i purchased just enough material from >Aircraft Spruce to build the rudder.Their service was excellent except when >i received my shipment , ups charged me , 22.27 gst , 37.55 ,brokerage fee >and another 2.63 gst on the brok fee,s , needless to say i have learned a >valuable lesson ,(expensive too). > Does anyone in Canada know of a place to buy 6061 ? > > >Regards > >Bill Stuart. > >ch701sp >sn 75664 >just started the rudder , >in no rush ,planning on abt 5years to complete. > > > >
