Subject: Zenith-List: 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

HI Carlos,
I remember the area you speak of and I'd be cautious of trimming until you
have the front side piece on.
The bottom rolled edge is the hard part to get in place, so it may require
on and off while rolling the material
around a tapering radius a bit. I used a piece of pipe and hand rolled it
carefully to get it right.
Before doing that, I'd recommend you cut a piece that you can make a sample
radius to get a fit and then
do the same to the piece. My progress here slowed a bit until it was right.
See link and large assembly2 page
for pictures around this area.

Larry, thanks for the suggestion and the link to the photo.
(I spend quite a bit of time viewing your web site - thanks for keeping it.
)
I just got a reply from Caleb:
"I see what it going on now. You will probably have to trim a little on the
cabin floor sides and the side skins to get it to clear the leading edge.
Now that I see what the problem is, I wouldn't trim the leading edge at
all. You will need to make a small cutout out in the side skin that the
leading edge will slip into. You will probably also need to make a small
cutout in the cabin floor to give clearance for the side skin. I wouldn't
worry too much about trimming either part."
Interesting that this problem did not happen before... (judging from
Caleb's difficulty in understanding it)
Regards
Carlos

Are you flying into Oshkosh?
EAA Homebuilt Parking is reserving the same parking spaces as we had last
year for us, just north of the Homebuilders Headquarters and north of the
Cannon Camera viewing stand. Again, we are near the Zenith factory display.
Follow the NOTAMS for the signage needed to park your plane. Please print
another sign with the word ZENITH on it. The volunteers parking the planes
will guide you to the reserved Zenith row.
Unfortunately, EAA will not provide a sperate parking spot for Zenigh
Homebuilt Camping. But they said if there is enough interest and if there is
someone who would get there early enough to get a spot in the back, and if
you know how many people would like to camp together, they will make
arrangements to accomidate us. It would be interesting to know how many
people will be sleeping under their wings with their Zeniths this year! If
you plan to, please let me know and we will see if there is enough interest.
Don't forget to confirm your banquet spot right away. Seating lis limited
and you need to confirm as soon as you can. You can get information at the
Zenith display. Jon Croke is donating 3 Zenair Archive CDs ($49 each) for
the dinner. These disks have the entire Zenair Newsletter collection in
.PDF format for easy searching thru all of the past years of the Newsletter.
Thanks Jon!
See you in Oshkosh!
Joe in Oshkosh
