Folks..the map shows us at 98 in strength. There has to be two more builders/flyers

I now have about 110 hours on my 701 with the 912UL/S and it is time to put
it up for sale and start building again. Yup, I'm one of those that likes to
build more than fly although the 701 is a real hoot. So if there is someone
out there that would rater fly than build, we just might be able to compliment
one another. I live in south west Florida. I'm advertising the plane for just
about what I have in parts and materials so all 1,200 hours of labor is free.
Email me for all of the particulars if you want to get into the air quickly.

You have Carl Ritter in Illinois City (flying 701 Subaru) and Larry
Dorgan in Davenport IA (new builder), but I don't see them
in email postings as they're not real "computer-active".

Thought I'd pass on a good source for rivets. Midwest Fastener Supply.,
Mulvane, Kansas. Furnishes fasteners to most of the local, Wichita
aircraft manufacturers. I've found that their rivets are from 2 to 4 cents
cheaper than Wicks or Aircraft Spruce per rivet. Five dollar minimum order
and fast service. Email Ana at www.midwestfastener.com for a quote.

Larry , and all others. I have just visited the
http://www.frappr.com/zenith601 we seemed to have stalled at the 164
members mark. I know there are a lot more builders and flying 601's out
there then the 164. How can we appeal to them to drop a pin on the map?
I would like to see where you all are!

My choice was the X-com 760 for size, weight, two channel monitoring and
voice activated intercom (some of the included intercoms have hot mike which
might drive me nuttier than I am. ). But I have not used it yet, so cannot say
if it really works. It is a marvelously tiny piece of technology though.

Another good source I've discovered is B&B Aircraft Supply, in Gardner KS. They
sell for $4.95 per hundred.

Mark,
I would be happy to sign up, but I thought it would be proper to
wait 'till my kit arrives. (Feb)
For now, I am building my Corvair.

Craig, I have the duel controls in my XL, but I made my own seats. Yes, they
need a bit of a cut out between your knees for clearance. The thicker the seat
cushion the wider the cut. I have flown XLs, HD and HDS all with the center
yoke and my XL with the duels and the feel of the duels and the utility of
flying with either hand has got the yoke beat hands down, FWIW, best regards,

Paul-
The most expensive A4 from ACS is 4.50/hundred, and long A5s are the
same price. Does B+B pay shipping, or am I missing something?

Thanks! I'm already sold on dual sticks and have the option kit from Zenith.
I need to retrofit it into the 80% done single-stick XL that I bought.
I'm just trying to figure out what to do about seats without having to learn
how to sew.

Craig, I formed my seats from fiberglass cloth on wax paper, bought cushions
from Spruce and used spray auto weather stip adhesive to attach, then trimed
edges. Then I took to local upholstery shop, selected fabric and had them
cover. All told, real nice seats for about $250. Bought extra material for making
side panels and trim. Still have that to do. On installing the duels you will
have to make a special tool to attach brackets to the center section, I will
be glad to send you a photo of the one I made, Best regards, Bill

| Subject: | 701 Aux Fuel Tank issue/question |
--> Zenith-List message posted by: doug kandle <d_kandle@velocitus.net>
I am installing the outboard, auxiliary, fuel tanks in my wings. The
front jury strut bracket (7V10-4SP) has a rivet that lies beneath the
outboard fuel tank. The rivet in question is 20 mm outboard of rib
#2 centerline and 35mm rear of the wing spar (plans page
7-V-10). This puts it under the fuel tank. I didn't rivet the
bracket to the wing when I did the other rivets in the wing bottom
because I didn't want to take the chance of bending that bracket when
I had to turn the wing over. It appears that I lucked out.
Has anyone else noticed that if you put this rivet in the bracket
from the outside, then there is a good chance that the rivet will
eventually put a hole in your fuel tank? At least to me this is what
it looks like will happen. The tank is only lifted above the bottom
skin by the thickness of the cork strip and the back side of the
rivet will certainly contact the tank.
Did I assemble something wrong? Am I imagining things? Or is this a
detail that perhaps should be noted in the instructions? I'm going
to set that rivet with the round head under the tank and the stem on
the outside of the wing.
