The European dealers have a smaller, narrower version. I think I bought mine from the Czeck dealer (Chip Irwin?)... the kit was complete with all attachment hardware etc, and the pants are well made. -- Grant Corriveau C-GHTF / HDS / CAM100

    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Paul Moore" <pmoore505@msn.com> Somewhere I grabbed a photo of G-DONT - a very pretty XL with some nice looking, quite trim pants. I don't know if they are ZAC or not but I don't think you could get any much smaller to work.

    Subject: 601 time
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "john H" <professor71@hotmail.com> Hi list I have been more of a lurker than a contributor for the last 2 years as I have worked on finishing up a 601HD. Yesterday N4036A got it's airworthiness certificate and is ready to fly. I haven't finished with my pilot license yet but do have someone who will be the test pilot. He would like to find someone with who he could get some time in with a 601 before he flies. Is there anyone in the southwestern part of VA, NC, TN, or KY that would be willing to let him get some time. Actually he is currently in nortthern VA so anyone in that area would work also. Thanks for any help you can give. John

    Subject: Geometry 101
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: Zed Smith <zsmith3rd@earthlink.net> For those like myself, who are more than a few years away from textbooks, the link is to a reminder of "How To Draw A Circle" or bisect a whatever. Might be useful for those who need to find the offset center of some crooked line or lay out nose/wing/fuselage art. Click on "Ruler-and-Compass Constructions" when you get there. http://home.wanadoo.nl/zefdamen/en/overview_en.htm I found it while looking for an easy way to make a mount (match the bolt circle) for a slightly bent McCauley prop which will eventually begin a new life as a wind vane. Do I need to consider "P-factor", depending on wind speed? zed/701/r912/still working do not archive

All of these items total $30,436.00. I am asking for the cost of the kit only $24,800.00. Buyer must arrange to pickup or ship. This airplane is an great cross country IFR capable platform. Top Speed with an O-360 is 167mph; Cruise is 154 mph according to Zenair LTD in Midland Ontario. Stall is 30mph with full flaps ! and 40 mph no flaps The aircraft is in the following status: 1) The right wing is about 80% complete with the aileron bellcrank assembly, control rod and the cables installed.Both left and right ailerons are assembled but not installed. 2) The horizontalstabilizer/elevator and /vertical fin/rudder are factory built and complete with wiring installed.

    Subject: Re: Wheel Fairings For 601XL
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: Larry McFarland <larrymc@qconline.com> Dave, If the standard XL tri-gear uses the same Matco 4 x 8.00 wheels and forks, I've just finished right and left high gloss forms for a pant that is 13.5 high, 7.5 wide and 26.5 long. These curve narrower at the front and rear and have a slight sweep up to center at the rear. Still have to make the molds from them and then the product. I think they look much better than the standard 13.5" x 10" wide by 36" long pants from ZAC. Completion is several weeks, but pictures will soon be posted on my site. I'm also going to sell my ZAC pants for $100 as soon as these are done. If there's interest, I can do more layups as needed.

You'll likely have a tough time getting an answer to that one. A lot depends on which version of the plans you have now, but there are LOTS of revisions. I asked the same question to ZAC, but never got a reply. My main concern was which items are crucial to the safety of the airframe. It would be great if they would handle updates much like software, where some are "critical". If you get an answer to that question, please post the reply. Thanks!
