    --> Zenith-List message posted by: Brandon Tucker <btucke73@yahoo.com> Steve, We have all heard horror stories about how difficult the FAA is when registering experimentals. I am sure there is a way to register the aircraft without a bill of sale if the previous owner is dead, but it will take an FAA year... What I mentioned will provide the path of least FAA resistance.

    --> Zenith-List message posted by: ron dewees <rdewees@mindspring.com> Brandon and others, I had a special horror story on registering my plane that seemed impossible to sort out. I called the EAA Hotline and got great advise. Those guys know what can be done since they talk to hundreds of folks a year. Give them a call. The number is on the back of you EAA card, or you can call the main number and tell them it's about homebuilt registration and they will connect you with a friendly expert. Worked for me! That's why we pay the big bucks for Membership ;-) Ron Brandon Tucker wrote: >--> Zenith-List message posted by: Brandon Tucker <btucke73@yahoo.com> > >Steve, > > We have all heard horror stories about how >difficult the FAA is when registering experimentals. >I am sure there is a way to register the aircraft >without a bill of sale if the previous owner is dead, >but it will take an FAA year...

    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Bill+Rose" <naumuk@alltel.net> All- Just wanted to apologize for not including "Do Not Archive" to my last posting, "Typhoid Mary" It pissed me off so much that brilliant idiots can to rob us from valued build time that I forgot to add the disclaimer. I lost the last month rebuilding our computers rather than working on my project. Hope to get back to work tomorrow. Good building! Bill DO NOT ARCHIVE

    Subject: Re: Aux fuel pump in 701.Aux fuel pump in 701.
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Larry" <lrm01@centurytel.net> I think it is just regular low pressure fuel line, which is fine and will last a long time. All I am saying is that Fuel Injection line is much better, higher quality and higher pressure, but higher price. This type of fuel line, especially since it will not be exposed to the elements will last longer than either you or I will be flying. So as long as it doesn't get cut, you don't need to ever change it out. On the other hand poly line doesn't handle radiuses well, cuts easy, also gets hard and brittle with age. The only down side I know of with "rubber" fuel line is that it weighs a little more, but the trade off in safety is well worth it.

    Subject: 701 doors
    From: "Chris Harding" <charding@houston.rr.com>
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Chris Harding" <charding@houston.rr.com> Group, I'm thinking of getting a 701 for just some simple fun flying. One question I have is: can one remove the doors and fly without them? In the heat of a Texas summer the idea is appealing. Thanks, Chris Harding Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=19463#19463

You'll lose some speed/aerodynamics, no big deal. Side slips are interesting... Don't stick your head out looking down if you care about your hat ;') Its tempting... Haven't yet tried flying with them on but up (top hinge), but I've heard of it being done.

    Subject: Grades of Nuts & Bolts
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: "Graham Kirby" <graham@601hd.com> I've been looking through AC 43.13 hoping to find a section where it says that it is not necessary to use AN nuts and bolts on non structural parts of the airframe. I cant find it. I'm interested in knowing what others have others done when it comes to attaching things like Adel clamps and grounding wires. Thanks Graham Kirby 601HD

    Subject: Re: 701 doors.
    --> Zenith-List message posted by: Gary Gower <ggower_99@yahoo.com> Sure you can. we fly it sometimes like this, in fact we are making an extra set of "summer doors" that will be ready in a few weeks. they will have no windows but kind of a wind deflector made of lexan, once it works (if it does) I will post some pictures. Johann, forgot the photos of the gas transfer, I will try to take them tomorrow, we are going on a short Xcountry to a barbacue in a friends ranch. Hope I dont forget my camera and take some photos of the flight... Hot season and windy time is here, time for fun before it rains (June, July) Saludos Gary Gower 701 912S Flying from Chapala, Mexico.
