Dave,
I purchased a case of Tempo zinc chromate aerosol cans from Skygeek a couple years
ago for my 801. They had the best price at the time and did not charge hazmat.
I see they now have a generic zinc chromate for less money than the Tempo.
Their website now mentions a hazmat charge on the Tempo but not on the generic.
The hazmat charge did not show up on the order total when I put in a pretend
order this morning: $9.90 for 2 cans plus $7.43 shipping = $17.33 You
might call them first to confirm that there is no hazmat charge.
They have yellow and green. Here is a link to the green:

I was going to order a quart of reducer from ACS for the zinc chromate

price is $9.70, the total cost of shipping, with the hazmat surcharge,
is $41. That's a four-fold increase in cost just to get it here! Does

The empty weight (1310 lb) that I quoted for my 801 is one commonly
defined as the weight of the aircraft including unusable fuel (about
4-6 gal), and full oil (12 qts).
The empty weight of the Zenith factory 801 is reasonable considering
that they have only two fuel tanks, no soundproofing/thermal insulation
surrounding the entire interior of the cabin as I do, and a lot simpler
(and lighter) instrument panel.
The one-inch thick closed-cell foam insulation from Wicks or Spruce is
quite heavy. In fact, in the forward floor I have a two inch layer
underneath a 1/8 inch masonite sheet and carpet over that. I did that
because my rubber fuel lines are routed underneath the "false" floor
through rigid PVC tubing on their way to my Andair fuel selector on a
center panel (an additional extra weight).
I also installed additional aluminum angles (diagonally) on both the
top and bottom rear fuselage to minimize "oil canning" during flight
and glued random scrap pieces of the 1" foam to the sides of the rear
fuselage as well to accomplish the same thing. I have about 160 hours
on my 801 and so far have not yet heard any sounds due to flexing of
the aluminum skins ("oil canning").
So, with all this I think an extra 160 lbs doesn't seem too bad.

Members,
There is no point or advantage in having a custom fitted cover made
for your aircraft. A cotton blanket and a silver 10' X 12' tarp with
grommets that you can tie 1/4" nylon rope will work just as well as an
expensive custom cover. Also if you have a problem as I did when I was
living in California with birds thinking your airplane is a toilet for
their use, do the following. Get a small piece rabbit skin with the
hair still on it and cut it out so it looks like four legs and a head.
Put two eyes on the head and glue a piece of Velcro on the bottom side
of it. Glue a piece of Velcro on the turtle deck of your aircraft and
you will not have any more birds sitting on your airplane and taking a
dump. The idea is not really new, farmers have been using scarecrows
for years to protect their crops.
The rabbit skin is the same principal and it works

Cost of Reducer For Zinc ChromateI'm not an industrial paint tech wizard
(someone else on the list is one but I don't remember who he is) but I
would try buying Laquer Thinner by the gallon at the local paint store,
Home Depot, or Lowes etc. It will disolve almost anything other than
glass or titanium and flashed off for a quick drying time. It does not
etch aluminum for you so you should wash the part, use some sort of
etcher (Alumaprep) then brush or spray it on.
Hope that helps,

Hi Dave,
To tail onto Paul's comment, there's an auto paint store on Watts Road across from
Woodman's on the west side. Maybe there's a chance they'd have what you're
after.

Pussies! I have pussies on my team! I spent three years in the USAF at
Malmstrom AFB, Great Falls, Montana. Hell, I elk hunted the Gallatin
herd at 41degrees below zero, for crying out loud! This morning my
backyard felt like a sauna at 8AM but that's the breaks of living in the
soutwest LA jungle. At least we haven't had a hurricane come ashore this
year (yet).
If you get too frozen to hold out, you can come down to Louisiana and
I'll put you up in the camper till you thaw out, okay? But you gotta
debur and prime parts while you're here.

> Pussies! ....41degrees
Are you talking about fahrenheits? Pussie! :-)
At normal winter day, we have minus 35 degrees celsius easily. Do you
know, what we do then?
Personally, I heat my outdoor bathtub to 36 degrees celsius, going to
sauna, where is about
80-110 degrees celsius. It's very dreamfull to take GOOD sauna session
(about 30min to 1 hour)
and then go to outside to bath, where only stars and moon shines.
Pussies! :-)

Please add CH701 rev-4 flaps speed range to the question. When the 701 was changed
to 1100lbs revision the max flap setting was changed to 16 deg.
I have been unable to find a revised flight manual or documentation covering this
change

Please don't take offense with the following comments. It's hard to believ
e, but on occasion, people on this list take my comments the wrong way :-)
I admire the frugal nature of your suggestion.
I saw the post many months ago, about the blanket and tarp idea, and also a
"custom cover" using a table cloth with a soft interior surface. The reas
on I didn't go with this option is I thought it would look like a tarp and
a blanket! Or a tablecloth strapped to my plane! I didn't like the look o
f it. SO, I went with the a custom, color matched cover from Bruce's Custo
m Covers. He already had the template for the XL and it looks beautiful.
I liked it so much I went back for a prop/spinner cover.
I liked the idea about the rabbit skin.Phil Maxson601XL/CorvairNorthwest Ne

I agree. Larry has a very nice plane. He was kind enough to give me a ride in
it one beautiful summer evening here in Madison (Middleton), WI. Beautiful sunset
on the horizon. It was a very comfortable ride, and his plane is nicely
outfitted. I spent some more time going over it at a recent fly-in and like
it more each time I see it.
I wish you had your plane at Oshkosh this year. I *really* wanted to see it!
It was sad that Larry's was the only one there (other than the factory plane).
Maybe John Faulkner's new white one with the Eggenfellner 6-cyl will be there
next year :-).
Best regards,
Chris

Subject: | Re: Canopy covers |
Phil,
My suggestion was for those who want protection for their aircraft
and nothing else. You like a custom made cover with your aircraft tail
number on it for the same reason I have a gold emblem on my Cadillac.
The car came with black tire valve screw on covers, and the hood
ornament was silver but I had to have gold.
The rabbit skin really works if you have a problem with birds
landing on your aircraft when it is parked and craping on it whenever
they feel like it. I made one up when I had a Beachcraft parked at
Meadow Lark Field, Hunting Beach, California and it got craped on all
the time until I put that "Scarecrow" on it and no more bird crap.
I am never offended by people who have a different view point than
I do.

Subject: RE: Zenith-List: Canopy covers
Please don't take offense with the following comments. It's hard to
believe, but on occasion, people on this list take my comments the wrong
way :-) I admire the frugal nature of your suggestion.
I saw the post many months ago, about the blanket and tarp idea, and
also a "custom cover" using a table cloth with a soft interior surface.
The reason I didn't go with this option is I thought it would look like
a tarp and a blanket! Or a tablecloth strapped to my plane! I didn't
like the look of it. SO, I went with the a custom, color matched cover
from Bruce's Custom Covers. He already had the template for the XL and
it looks beautiful. I liked it so much I went back for a prop/spinner
cover.
I liked the idea about the rabbit skin.

Members,
There is no point or advantage in having a custom fitted cover
made for your aircraft. A cotton blanket and a silver 10' X 12' tarp
with grommets that you can tie 1/4" nylon rope will work just as well as
an expensive custom cover.

There's one thing positive about winter, if you're wood's in and
everything's insulated. No better time to work on your project without
guilt!
Unlike some of us that can just sit on their back porch drinking
hurricanes and wait for them! Know what I mean Vern, er Ed?

Subject: | 701 Upper Elevator Horn |
--> Zenith-List message posted by: "Ryan Vechinski" <brothapig@hotmail.com>
Fellow 701 builders;
I am currently working on finishing up the elevator, and I am trying to
figure out the upper elevator horn, part number 7H5-1. First of all, I
don't believe that it is drawn correctly when looking at the "top" view. I
cannot figure out how far in to taper the front of the horn (the dashed line
with the work "cut" in the drawings) Could someone help me understand this?
I hope I am explaining this enough. I will try to scan an image in if
necessary. Thanks in advance.
