    This was probably the most frustrating step on my whole project and could easily have been avoided. The photo guide calls for you to lay out the rivet line as they indicate. I used pictures to figure out the adjustments needed and it turned out very well......only latter, I found out that the holes were PREDRILLED in the skin going into the other side of the piano hindge(and not in the same pattern) and I could have simply lined up the two skins of the elevator and the horizontal stabilizer and had a perfect match of rivets across from one another. The next step in the photo guide says to mark these holes straight across to the next skin to make a match BUT, they are now predrilled for you so you can't do this. I know that structurally mine is fine, but I sure wish I had noticed the predrilled holes in the following section and matched them back in the fist section. It would look a lot more uniform to have had them straight across from each other. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=187563#187563

    If anyone has a friend or other interested party thinking about building a Zenith 601XL, print them out a copy of the attached file. It reflects a good price on a partically completed kit, Jabiru 3300A engine & FWF kit, airframe and engine options, tools, etc, which is a complete list of all items included & original cost (2006 prices). Thanks.
