| Subject: | rear side fuse L angles |
Hi
can someone tell me if the rear side fuse diagonal L angles actually tie into
the verticals ? Are they attached to the vertical L angles by rivets or do they
just stop short. and if they don't attach to the vertical L's how is it stronger
or is it just to stop the oil canning like the wings are..
Chris

I don't know the details of how the diagonals are installed, they
weren't included in my early kit. It is my understanding though that
they are there to stop the oil canning of the skin, not to add any
real strength to the structure.

Oil canning only. They do not tie in at either end. That is per the plans
and a conversation with Roger at ZAC.

The diagonal L-angles do not tie into the verticals. It is just to stiffen the
fuselage sides and stop oil canning.

Netheads,
I made a trip/vacation down to Nags Head NC to pick up a canopy from Debo Cox for my Zodiac XL. Debo and I started scratch building about the same time fall 2005. Debo is a Park Ranger down at Jockey Ridge and had no metal working background when he started. We watched each others progress over the years and I must say I was quite impressed with what he seemed to be achieving, take a look at his kitlog site http://mykitlog.com/debo and you will begin to understand what I am talking about.
Debo made a sweet deal on a Todds Canopy awhile back and he posted it for sale
on E-bay. I bought it and looked at the cost of shipping it or just driving down
and getting it, it was about the same and I really wanted to see his plane
with my own eyes. He has decided to go another way, He now has a Greyhound Bus
ground pounder problem (RV only not flight worthy). He is going to be selling
his Zenith Zodiac CH 601 XL and I thought you guys might like to know something
about the condition it's in.
Debo has done very meticulous work, as good as some of my better apprentices. His
attention to the details and finish are as good as what comes from Zenith.
I even told him it looked better than what factory produced.
Whoever buys this plane in it's current state will have a very quick build. Contact
Debo directly for details: Debo Cox
