I think this has come up before and it was suggested that we could borrow a 'big' degausser unit from a T.V. shop and it might do the job... BUT as I write that, I also recall that there may have been some other possibilities of demagnetizing other things you wouldn't want to demagnetize .... not sure what ... radio components? gauges?.... anyways, try the archives. -- Grant Corriveau C-GHTF / HDS / CAM100 ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 05:49:24 AM PST US From: "Jeffrey Glasserow" Subject: Zenith-List: Re: Possible group Insurance for 601XXX Owners clamav-milter version 0.80j on osiris --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Jeffrey Glasserow" Given the fact that many in this group are at Sun & Fun this wekk I'll post this next week as well.

Also, as any bussiness, they have volume discount rates for fleets in companies , charitable groups, non profit clubs and organizations, etc... We have also found out that homebuilts and kit planes have a less risk of accident over factory builts, once they have gone through the test time and first flight, some planes have more risk, mostly in landing events, this because they are fast planes and the builder looses proficiency while building. The good part is that the Zenith planes have the less rate of accident per units flying and only one structural failure in 30 plus years... Hope this helps. Saludos Gary Gower Do not archive.

Page 1 of 10 (Rev. 2.4-2/28/05) says to check rivet lines/holes, etc. The "6T2-2 Double" states that there should be 3 holes pre-drilled at this location. My stab actually has 5 drilled at this location. Is this a problem???? I'm guessing it's not a big deal, but I want to make sure it will not lead to structural problems in the future.

Here in the States we have to cut and bend .063 sheet or just use the 1/8" X 1/8" 6061-T6. I chose to use the 1/8" angle on my 601XL. It's very strong and adds very little weight. You should be able to find 1/8" angle by the boatload in Canada. Good luck, Scott Laughlin N5SL (reserved) www.cooknwithgas.com Wishing I was in Lakeland, Florida today.

Boothe" Subject: Re: Zenith-List: Horizontal Stab Main Spar --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Gary A. Boothe" Forest, 6T2-2 should have 3 holes, while 6T2-1 has 5. Both take A5 rivets. If your spar is drilled with 5 each, check with ZAC, but I don't see why not put in 5 each. Gary Boothe, Cool, Ca WW Corvair Power - 601HDS Rudder complete.
