    Subject: CH601-HD(S) fuselage assembly
    Hello, folks My aluminum stack is finally starting to resemble an aircraft (if you have a lot of imagination, that is): http://www.zenith.aero/photo/img-6058 When I put the front side skins in place (just to have an idea of what it would look like), I noticed the interference between the side skins, heel support and floor (the rolled end of the floor). The attached pics show the offending area. The instructions simply say "trim as required" (or something like that). To me, it seems I'll have to remove a semi-circle one or two inches in diameter - as I haven't seen any comments about this, I am a little concerned. I also have looked at a few of the CH601 sites still on-line, but I did not find any picture or comment that would clarify this. Thanks in advance for your comments / suggestions Carlos CH601-HD, plans

    Carlos, I'm not sure when it started, but I discovered this problem (with my 601XL) in June 2006 and reported it to Zenith. They published a revised photo gu ide page, saying that it had to be trimmed. (I had already done that) I t hink they revised the part after that, but I really don't know if they ever revised the drawing for the part.
