List,
I use to look forward to reading how different people were addressing different
problems of building, but now this group has several detractors bound and determine
to undermine any confidence in our building, our kits, the plane design,
the company or our flying skills.
I tend to believe the builder that suggested, just maybe, some competitors have
infiltrated our forum in order to discredit Zenith, Chris or whatever. I really
don't give a rats behind what happened to an aircraft a year ago, in a different
country, with different laws , different builders, etc. Somebody please
ask Matt to start a forum entitled "BS for amateurs. Knock off the speculation
and get back to building. If your worried about the proven 601XL, build something
else!
Blue skies and happy landings...

Mike,
I can confirm that there are such folks out there. Last fall when I
hosted the Zenith Gathering at Winchester, Virginia, I was treated to a gang
of three Zenith competitors that evidently had studied up on everything bad
about Zenith aircraft. They spent a lot of time talking about all the
problems with Zenith aircraft. Eventually they just went away, but we had
to ignore them for quite a while. But they were there, in person, clearly
trying to influence the Zenith crowd that Zenith aircraft were dangerous and
theirs was better.
For my part, splitting up the Zenith list has just added confusion
about which is which. I'll have a building related post on replacing the
bearings on the old Matco (1999 era) wheels tomorrow!
