I'd be happy to help with the pre-purchase inspection if the plane is near
by our area. It would be pretty easy to tell if the buyer has installed ea
ch of the upgrade components and to give a general appraisal of the workman
ship. I'll be working on the hangar this weekend and early next week so gi
ve me a call if I can help.

I strongly suggest you get someone familiar with the 601XL to help you with
an inspection. See if you can contact Phil Maxson. He has built and flies
a great 601XL. He might be able to help or guide you to someone who can.
You might also ask around your EAA chapters to see if anyone can help.

>I learned to fly in 1945 and did so regularly until 1956, when both parents died
in the crash of their new Cessan 170. The years go by; I married a woman in
1982 who shared my wish to build and fly; indeed, about that time we traveled
to Eloy AZ to fly in the Dragonfly. And then, in the summer of 2006, I met Michael
Heintz and the 601 and the new LSA category; instant love. Our kit was delivered
six months later, just about the time the first accidents occurred. And
as with many of you, work generally stopped while the issues involved cascaded
throughout the List. Also, as with many of you, the announcement that a modification
kit would be available rekindled a sense of cautious optimism. The
up-grade was nearly completed by mid-August; "perhaps by next spring...."

>But, no.In mid-AugustI was diagnosed as having cancer. Perhaps it is enough to
simply say that this 60-year-old dream will not now happen; at age eighty, other
priorities (including relocation back to the East coast)have suddenly becomecentral.
In what is one of the truly difficult decisions we have had to make,
I am selling my 601.

>My gratitude for the List is quite profound. While not participating often, it
has been read almost daily with much interest; individuals such as Larry McFarland,
Paul Mulwitz, Rick Lindstrom and Terry Phillips (there obviously are numerous
others)were unusually helpful during the confusion of 2008-9, and from
the List I haveput together a supplemental construction manual of well over a
thousand pages. ThatI cannot now act on all of this is a deep disappointment indeed.

>Again, thank you all. The sight of a 601 in flight will bring back a fascinating
experience.
