If you are a registered owner of Zenith plans, you can log into the builders area
and download a PDF containing pictures and drawings of the new 650 canopy latch
system that was added on Thursday. Go to "Click here for important notices
and other building and flying information."

| Subject: | ZAC info on 601XL to 650 plan upgrade |
I just got off the phone with Sebastian Heintz who confirmed the direction Zenith
is taking on upgrades for registered owners of 601XL plans. They hope to have
the 650 plans back for review by the end of this week or early next week. Distribution
could take place shortly after that, but hopefully no later than the
end of August.
Because of the overwhelming similarities between the two models, they plan to treat
this as a plan set upgrade. Pricing is likely to be in line with current
upgrade sets -- only adjusted for inflation. They haven't changed their upgrade
pricing for years.
Finally, expect them to post a comprehensive list of all 601XL to 650 changes,
with comments about their rationale, for our review. That could happen as early
as the end of the day. Because builders are at different places, this will allow
us all to decide which, if any, changes we want to incorporate.
Once again, I'm pleased with the way Zenith is managing this process and wish them
well.

I like the original design. When I latch my canopy down there is no doubt it is
there to stay. Two clicks on each side just like a car door. My home-made
opener is very slim and has to rotate about 50 degrees before it even starts to
release the latches. It is mounted forward and must be rotated up so there
is not much chance of an accidental opening.

I guess there are many ways to do the same thing however.
