If you get the AOPA Pilot magazine there's an article on the mew LSA
design from Chris. Called the Patriot, it differs from traditional CH
designs by having a vertical stabilizer/rudder instead of the all-flying
rudder we're are used to seeing. Quite an attractive a/c, not like the
701 (not that the 701 doesn't have its charms).
High-wing, almost 33 foot span, 118 kt cruise, stall (clean) at 40 kts,
price to be in $90 to $95K range. Looks better than the Cessna LSA
offering to me.
Should be at OSH.

Back in the 70"s there were some carbureted cars that did have a tank return
line specifically to prevent vapor lock. These cars had mechanical fuel
pumps on the engine, and inline fuel filters between the pump and the carb. That
fuel filter had a third, smaller, barb on it that connected to a fuel tank
return line.
I worked in both Buick and Oldsmobile shops during that time and I remember
the Oldsmobiles having this setup but I'm not sure about the Buicks. (I Suffer

Actually, I learned many years ago when trying to learn RC airplane
piloting that anything will fly. After the first few major crashes,
my airplanes tended to be very crooked contraptions held together by
large globs of epoxy glue. They still flew just fine. Well, perhaps
their airspeed wasn't quite as good as when they were new.
For leveling my work bench I used one of the home depot style laser
levels. I used this to insert shims under 2 x 4 cross pieces on top
of my work bench. This gave me a 12 foot long by four foot wide work
space where the top edges of the 2 x 4s were level to within 1 mm throughout.

| Subject: | Re: First flight... not so good |
I am sorry to see this accident, but am glad the pilot is OK, which is the most important thing. I was interested in how close he was to the airport when the happenned so I pulled up the following photomap http://maps.yahoo.com/broadband/index.php#mvt=s&q1=3441%20Citrine%20Ln,%20Rosamond,%20CA%2093560-6813&trf=0&lon=-118.192549&lat=34.870158&mag=5
It looks like he was only about 2000 feet short of the runway. I don't know if
he was in the pattern coming around for landing or had engine problems and was
just trying to make the airport, but it does bring up one of my pet peeves. The
following are just general comments and I am not in any way casting doubts
on the pilot or his preparation in this accident. Most of the time when I fly
a pattern I stay within gliding range of the runway, and was very anal about it
during test flights. While a long, on the glideslope, power on approach is appropriate
for many larger aircraft or in IMC conditions, with these aircraft
there is no reason not to be in a position to glide to the runway from most anywhere
in the pattern once you get enough altitude. Though problems rarely happen,
they are much more likely to happen in the first few flights, so fly them
as if you will lose power at any time. Before your first flight, go up and do
a bunch of engine out practice, from different locations in the pattern and from
altitude, until you can nail it every time. Throughout you initial test flights,
get altitude as quickly as you can and never be out of gliding range to
the runway. Scout out the area surrounding the airport and have a distinct plan
for exactly where you will put it down in the event you lose power before getting
enough altitude to make the runway. Don't put the extra burden of having
to think about it if it happens, just follow through on what you had already
planned. Mechanical problems and fuel problems do happen at a relatively high
rate during the initial test flights, but in most cases they shouldn't have to
result in bent metal or worse.

I haven't even cut it to length yet. I simply matched the tube with the bellcrank
when both the stick and bellcrank were neutral (vertical). I knew I was in
trouble with the seat front clearance just by eyeballing it.
The plans indicate "685mm (check stick neutral)". In my original kit plans dated
1/96, it shows "700mm (cut to fit stick neutral)". I guess the intent is to
give you enough material to cut it to the size you want, although that's not
really spelled out in the latest drawings.

All, The way the article kindof reads, is this might be the CH750 that
we had heard rumors about, around 1-1/2 years ago.
There were indications that it was about 10-15% bigger than the 701, and
would fit the LSA requirements closer than the 701 does now, (for speed
and Gross Weight)
I guess we will just have to wait and see.
Take care, all of you going to OSH, and think about us that are unable
to go. (like me) it never fails, I have TDY travel about this time every
year for the last 12 years. Go figure.

Yes, your method is absolutely correct.
If there is an imperfection in the glass tube the bubble should hang up
there; since the sample location does not change, but the bubble DOES, it's time
to get a new level.
I always check my level at first use as well.
I can't imagine what the arguement could be.....

| Subject: | CH640: Findings at 2nd condition inspection |
I just completed the second condition inspection on my CH640. I have 450 hours
on the tach. Everything looked good except for a few items requiring attention.
If anyone is interested, here is what I found.
1. New brake pads. I probably could have gone another 6 months, but figured I
might as well change them now. This was the first set of pads. The original tires
are still fine.
2. There are 2 panels on the aft side fuselage which cover the elevator trim
mechanism. On the ground there is good clearance between these panels and an underlying
bracket that attaches the trim tabs to the trim tab bellcrank. However,
in flight they must be bowing in enough to rub on the bracket and have etched
a groove on one side of the bracket. I am going to put in a new bracket and
put a 1/8" piece of teflon on the bracket to prevent wear in the future.
3. The front spinner bulkhead had a crack extending from one of the screw holes
inward and 1/3 of the way around the bulkhead. I had noticed the last few flights
that at some rpm's there was a bit more vibration than I am used to. I
am going to replace the bulkhead. Interestingly, I took a flight this morning
without the spinner to see how much difference it made. To my surprise I couldn't
detect a difference in speed with a quick run at 4500 feet, and CHT's were
a bit lower. Even though it looks ugly, I may just fly without a spinner for
a while.
4. The throttle cable was not pushing the throttle all the way to the stop at
full power. It was a very small gap, but every little bit of power helps. I just
adjusted the linkage.
That's it. Now I can get back to flying.

| Subject: | Re:Vaporlock issues - lessons learned |
>From what I find, if you burn 100LL, your fuel system could be a rip-off of
any certified low wing single. When you burn auto-gas, its higher vapor
pressure can cause vapor lock. Your truck burns fuel blended for your area and
season. Put a winter blend in a plane and climb to altitude and it starts to "boil
off" vapor. 100LL has a low vapor pressure. You need to preheat an engine using
100LL in cold weather just to get it started, however your truck starts right
up. The typical certified "pressure system" with a single boost pump ahead of
the firewall actually sucks fuel from whatever distance from the selected
tank. The several sources for auto fuel STC's (Maule, EAA and Peterson Aviation
usually require modifications to combat vapor lock. Peterson
(http://autofuelstc.com) has a page for homebuilder guidance. Also more info about fuel than you
can digest. He suggest boost pumps in or near the tanks to push fuel and
vapor through the lines. Of course there is more to it than this. This could be
a
possible scenario: Flying at altitude on a hot day with autogas in the tanks.
You empty one tank and (using your check list to eliminate human error) you
select the other tank. One pump is turned off and the other pump is turned on.
The bad news is that the pump on the full tank has failed. Empty tank with a
good pump and full tank with a bad pump. Your engine driven pump may or may not
provide enough suction to overcome any vapor and still feed the engine. If
possible, descend or land as soon as practicable. It would be nice to have a LOW
FUEL PRES warning light for each pump in addition to the single fuel pressure
gauge at the carb. You may not notice the load meter not indicating the draw
from the pump. Back when I was "flying for the man" I flew some types that had
an interconnect between tanks. You opened a solenoid operated valve and
gravity leveled the tanks in a few minutes. Could be done on a 601easily by T ing
into the line at each tank and putting a simple valve at the lowest point in the
cockpit. But that complicates things. AC 43.13-1B Ch 8, Sec 2 says little
about fuel system design. I like a text that went out of print in 1967. Aerospace
Propulsion Powerplants by Cargnino has a detailed but dated coverage on fuel
systems. (Amazon $1.48 used)

Greetings Gentlemen,
I am a new 701 builder. I will be picking up my full kit on the 31st. I have
decided to start out with the 582 engine (already have one). I am interested
in any motor mounts or other FWF items that may be for sale. Installation photos,
tips and comments regarding the 582 will be appreciated.
This is my first build and I intend to be flying in one year. The shop is ready
and I can't wait.
I have some toys that need to find new homes, to help fund the Zenith. Please
help me find buyers for a Challeger I and a Destiny powered parachute, both registered
as ELSA and in excellent condition. Located in North Central Arkansas.
I am a very motivated seller at this time.
Thank you,
Richard Craig

Welcome from a fellow Arkansan. Where in NC Arkansas are you? I'm down in El Dorado
(South Central).
I think you might find that the 582 will leave you with a woefully underpowered
701.

Just came back from the Zenith Factory in MO and had a chance to fly the 701
with Roger ( great bunch of folks there by the way ! ). He said the 701
performed well when the 582 was installed. Admittedly it won't have the
"umph" of some of the higher hp installations but then again we ar'nt
building a speed demon ! Hope he's right as I'm installing the 582 bluehead
in mine.

Hi Richard, welcome to the group. I expect you will
really enjoy building your CH-701 kit. I'm scratch
building my 701 and am thoroughly enjoying every
minute of it.
I have to admit that I share Gig's concern about the
power of the 582. The original prototype 701 did fly
on a 503 but the current rendition of the 701 has kind
of gained weight right along with the rest of us North
Americans. I'm not sure that the 582 is quite going
to get the job done.
Of course, you can always try the 582 and if it isn't
up the job, sell it off as a down payment toward a
912. While you will definiately pay a power penalty,
the 582 is a bit lighter than the 912 so that should
offset things.
Best of luck with your build. You've already found
one of the best resources for building a Zenith
product, this list.

Hello Ron:
I went through the process and I think I have "unsubscribed" you.
Please complete the last step as requested below from the Zenith-List

A web link was just emailed to:
"r56c1@yahoo.com"
Please open your email client and click on this web link. This will
complete the Subscription/Unsubscription process and update this window
with the new Subscription results.
Thank you!
No need to thank me, never hearing from you again will be thanks enough.
Best of luck in your future endeavors

I think there might be a misconception about the 40108 Facet fuel pump. The
40108 Facet pump does NOT have a check valve in it. See the specs on their
web site:
_http://www.facet-purolator.com/solidstate.asp_
(http://www.facet-purolator.com/solidstate.asp)
I am using two of them...one on each wing tank. If I start with an empty
tank on the left hand side...and run the right fuel pump, it pumps fuel into
the left tank. I'm not sure if this is a problem or not. It seems to supply
the carburetor (MA3-SPA) just fine...but it also transfers fuel to the other
tank. Has anyone else noted this? I'm wondering if the 40147 or 40148 might
work as well, or better. Does anyone know of another supplier, besides
Aircraft Spruce?

Ron -
If the unsubscribe doesn't work for you then you might consider setting up a
mail filter. You can have yahoo mail automatically move any message that
was sent to zenith-list@matronics.com in to the trash folder. Creating
filters seems to be broken in the new yahoo mail beta but it works in the
old 'classic' yahoo mail interface.
In the old yahoo mail interface, see "Options", "Mail", "Filters", click the
"Add" button, paste "zenith-list@matronics.com" in to the "To/Cc header"
edit box and go from there. This may not be as satisfying as actually
getting off the list but at least you won't see all the messages. You can
switch back to the yahoo mail beta after creating the filter and it should
continue to work.
Or you can continue to swear at all the members of this community and get
flamed.
