    --> Zenith-List message posted by: JAPhillipsGA@aol.com Jeff, When we first flew my XL in Junes I had all the tires (5.00s) pumped to 28 pounds. 26 flights later I check the pressure and it's down to only 4 pounds in the mains and 11 pounds in the front. It did tend to waddle when I taxied. Pumped in 22 pounds and it lands and feels like a brick, but it does not waddle, so as our good friends Roger would say 'pumped it 'til it feels good to you' I guess. FWIW, Bill

    Subject: 601 Crash
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Zodie Rocket" <zodierocket@hsfx.ca> Two Small Planes Brush in Midair, and One Takes a Deadly Plunge Two small aircraft clipped each other in midair yesterday in the sunny, nearly windless skies over western HYPERLINK "http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/national/usstatesterritoriesandposse ssions/newjersey/index.html?inline=nyt-geo"New Jersey, causing one plane to drop nose first into a field of trees, killing the pilot, the state police said. The other pilot landed safely, and there were no other reported casualties. The police identified the dead pilot as Jeffrey L. Glasserow, 55, of Pittstown, N.J. The other pilot is James P. Walter, 56, of Kintersville, Pa.. Sgt. Stephen Jones said a telephone call to 911 at 11:40 a.m. reported that an aircraft was in trouble near the township of Pohatcong, near Phillipsburg, more than 50 miles northwest of Trenton. A police helicopter located the crash site, on a 90-acre farm near Interstate 78 and about three miles from the Delaware River. . "We have not disturbed the crash site," Sergeant Jones said, because the police were awaiting investigators from the state's Division of Aeronautics. The crashed plane was a crumpled, unrecognizable piece of white metal. The pilot did not appear to have attempted a landing and simply dropped through the treetops, Sergeant Jones said. Ron Harbist, an investigator at the scene from the Aeronautics Division, said later that the pilot was "probably out of control when he hit; he came in at a steep angle." He said the plane, a Zodiac 601 built from a kit, is registered with the Federal Aviation Administration and is listed as "experimental." Arlene Murray, a spokeswoman for the Eastern Region office of the F.A.A., said the two planes were flying under "visual flight rules" and were not communicating with air traffic controllers. "They clipped each other somehow, is what I understand," she said. It was not clear whether they were flying past each other or parallel in the same direction. Ms. Murray said the crashed plane was owned by All-Media Associates Inc. of Port Washington, on Long Island. A telephone number could not be found for the company. The intact plane, a Cessna 172 single engine, was minimally damaged, Ms. Murray said, and is owned by Sportaviation Inc. of Pipersville, Pa. Ashar Husain, the owner of Sport Aviation, a flight school in Erwinna, Pa., in Bucks County, where the plane had taken off, said the surviving pilot was an experienced flier and regular customer who rented planes.

    Subject: Re: RE: 601XL Brake Problems
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: JAPhillipsGA@aol.com Lance, good to hear from you. I have continued the good brake fight, but must report a great lack of success. As Ronnie Grove mentioned I checked the plug opening in the top of each master cycilender and they were both open. I checked the travel and the shaft is traveling north as far as it can uponn release so the problem does not seem to be there. I took the brakes apart this weekend, rechecked eveything and I used an adhesive called Super Tact to the back of the inter pad and the caliper cycilder face to see if that would illiminate the rattle, but it does'nt. The only thing that helps is my new Lightspeed 20 XLs headset with ANR, turn it on and those dammed old brake noises go away, Ha. Another way to fix a problem, Lance if you can figure out what's wrong please let me know, Best regards, Bill

    --> Zenith-List message posted by: JAPhillipsGA@aol.com Bill, good for you fellow !!! We have all suffered a bout of "throw this dammed thing in the trash" flu, but let me tell you another story. Yesterday morning here in Georgia opened with warm blue sky and light breezes. After a wonderful breakfast with my lovely trophy wife I drove to the airport. I parked the car and opened the hanger doors and inside I was greeted by my pretty baby. I swear I heard her say "gas be up big boy and I'll give you another ride of a life time" Well, I'm not too bright, but as a red blooded American I know sex and quick as a bunny the fuel truck was there and gone. I pulled her out into the sun light and she just sparkled with anticipation. After the normal foreplay with the dipstick and fluids I opened the hatch and climbed on board, when the engine caught it was like a promise that this ride would really be pleasure. I taxied onto the strip and pushed firmly on the throttle and zip she rushed forward in an instant and I had to really concentrate to keep everything aligned straight down the middle. At 70 I tugged in the stick between my legs and was rewarded by her literally leaping into the air. As she climbed at 1100 ft per minute @ 100 mph I knew that she had not lied to me and once we reached the pinnacle of the climb at 5000 feet and leveled off, the next 2.4 hour was more continued pleasure and the satisfaction I had dreamed of and worked for all those years. Yes Bill, you are making good progress and soon, sooner than you think, she will be completed, fast, smooth, beautiful, sexy and completely yours. Yes, yours to have your way with. Enjoy the ride, Best regards, Bill of Georgia N505WP, 601XL-3300w/DC (30 hours)

    Subject: Re: RE: Parachutes kill.
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: Steve Hulland <marinegunner@gmail.com> All interesting, but I can say this. A week ago Thursday I had a fairly big stroke while teaching a class. If I had been flying, about all the time I would have had to react is to pull a BRS cord and let it deploy. If I had been driving, all I could have done is hold the wheel tight, hit brakes fairly hard and hoped for a good stop. In either case I may have survived. In either case I may not have. But the BRS would have been the only way to survive if I had been flying. For me the subject is now mute - if I fly again, it will be with another and it will be with a BRS if in my 701.

An HDS with an O-235 hanging off the nose definitely shouldn't fly nose up. Bill do not archive

    Subject: Re: 601 Crash
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Dave" <dnimigon@telusplanet.net> This is a very day for all of us when we here such news. I also believe it is a learning tool for us to be better fliers and to keep a keen eye out for the unexpected. We never know when something will catch us off guard when we're out enjoying the gift of flying. I receive Transport Canada's accident reports regularly, not because I'm after gory news but to learn from others what happens out there in the sky. You can learn allot from peoples mistakes and I read everyone of these reports and I find it very helpful in what we can look for in maintenance issues and weather issues that we sometimes forget about. My deepest sympathy goes out to the family of Mr. Glasserow and we all should be that extra careful when we're out enjoying the thing we love the most. God be with him.

    Subject: Jeff Glasserow: Eulogy
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Phil Maxson" <pmaxpmax@hotmail.com> I was stunned this morning when I read the newspaper and read of my friend's death. Even as I write this now, it doesn't seem possible. His last posting to this list was last week. I am deeply saddened by his loss. Jeff and I met on this list and became friends about a year ago, and we both decided to join EAA chapter 643 in the Pittstown area, his hometown (I wasn't happy with my original EAA chapter). He and I flew a few times together and shared a few meals over the past year, and he has visited my project many times. Jeff was an experienced pilot who had let his medical lapse and was reintroduced to flying as a Sport Pilot, but his piloting skills were good. He purchased his already flying HDS from another builder and then subsequently had the plane thoroughly gone over by a local A&P. He had several small things taken care of, such as rusty landing gear, and had the seat pan lowered. After the plane came out of the shop, Jeff flew it almost every week, sometimes several times a week. He was convinced that the plane flew nose high and then he lowered the ailerons by a fraction of a turn or two, and that seemed to solve his problem. I must say, when I flew with him, I never saw the problem. He even used my tail template to check the angle of incidence of the stabilizer, and found no problem. In any case, I had looked over his plane many times, and I can say, that was a mechanically sound machine. No problems. The 235 engine would start on 2 or 3 blades of his three-blade prop and flew like a classic HDS. I would doubt seriously if there was a mechanical problem with the plane. Jeff's daughter (who I never met) was planning to take lessons in the plane, and she flew with him more frequently than I did. I'm glad she wasn't involved in the accident. (If Jeff's daughter ever reads this: Your dad was a good man and he loved you. He was very proud of you.) I guess this should just serve as a reminder for us to look out the window more and scan all around the plane as we look. Until we hear from the NTSB, this is about all I think we can learn. Goodbye Jeff. I'll miss you. Phil Maxson 601XL/Corvair Northwest New Jersey Attending "Corvair College" next week.
