The seat pan I received isn't as much wrong as it is different and
undocumented. There is a flange added to the outboard side which replaces the
"L" angle shown on the plans.
Someone else reported a flange on the inboard side that replaced the "L" angle
there. That one would bother me, because it allows any "slop" in the location
of the center console to be corrected.
I had a lot of problems with the predrilled holes in the wings not lining up
correctly. I managed to make them fit, but only with difficulty.

I am wondering if anyone has flown both an HDS and a CH2000 (Alarus)? If so, how
comparable are the flight characteristics?
Would the CH2000 be a good training platform for an HDS?
Thanks phill hartig

I've never flown the 2000, but it looks a lot like a CH640 (4-seater), not
like the 601-HDS...

Phill,
Either a CH 2000 or a Cherokee 140 would be a good primer for the HDS.
Perhaps a little more sluggish, but would get the
job done. The response rate for the HDS will be a bit quicker, but if
you're current and remember to fly the plane, you're
going to get along with the HDS in any case. The fine point will be
getting it set on the mains while holding the nose gear off
to slowdown and then ease it on. The rest will seem very natural. The
HDS does not present contrary or difficult
to master flight characteristics. It's really sweet.to fly. Recommend
long term, electric elevator and aileron trim tabs.
Pitch it for the middle ground.
Best regards,
