Here is the updated list. If you look at the bottom video's first you will
see that doing the upgrade to the wings on the airplane is much easier than
on the bench.
You can do everything except add the root doublers and re install the nose
ribs on the airplane.

| Subject: | Re: Trailering a 601XL |
I just wanted to say thanks to all whom responded to my query. Your answers gave
me the info I needed, and caused me to look further to find a suitable trailer.
What I wound up with was a 7'+ width flatbed that worked great once I skewed the
airplane a bit. I couldn't really see past the rear of the plane hanging out
to the side, but hey, you can't have everything!
Once more, thanks.
Doug

Ted, although many people will tell you differently, tail draggers
aren't any more difficult, they're just different. "You flyin' that tail
dragger, boy? They'll kill ya, they will. Widdermakers, ev'ry one of

actually make you a better pilot, because you'll learn to be ahead of
the aircraft, and to fly it from chocks to chocks. My not-yet-flying XL
is a tail dragger, with the Czech composite gear. It's a little
narrower, but weighs in at just over 12.5 pounds per leg and wheel.

Subject: Zenith601-List: Looking for opinions
I've only put 60-something hours on my XL, but I quickly became very
comfortable with the way it handled. I was looking for this in
particular in an airplane before I built it, which is why I chose the
tri-gear, for safety and comfort. It is now disassembled and de-riveted
waiting for the "upgrade kit" so I can be "comfortable" again. While
it's a apart anyway, and I'm worrying about the effect on performance by
adding weight and was wondering about the tail-dragger option. I would
appreciate comments from anyone, and everyone, that has any experience
with conventional gear 601's. It's obvious there'd be savings in drag
and weight, but are there concerns why it shouldn't be done? Thanks.

family for the next few hours. Merry Christmas to you all, from the mountains
of far west Texas!
