A great local bushpilot and our Mentor (is wonderful to listen to his advis e), -3 years ago asked me to have the chance to test fly my 701... Shure was a -honor for me, because he is a tail wheel pilot, "he hates training wheels" jokes around. To watch him fly the 701 was a beautifull aerial ballet, no hard aerobatic manuvers, just the plane tested to the limits of normal manuvers. He got out the plane very happy. -He loved how the plane performed. -On e thing he mention was that the 701 was a great plane for a novice pilot, h e told me "you have a huge stall alarm built in" -with a big smile...

What makes it do that I have no idea, but I do make use it to control my speed on landings. It's like a built in stall ind icator except no- conventional stall occurs, just the big controllable mu sh. Do I wish the wing profile continued over the cabin, you bet. I truly belie ve it would be a better plane if it did, as I suspect the buffeting MAY sta rt there. For one thing I could peer into the wing at a sight glass and kno w exactly how much gas I have. I could run a vent line between the gas tank s to equalize the pressure of the tanks so they would feed evenly, Cessna d oes it that way. Does the stall (buffeting) start over the cabin long befor e the rest of the wing, I have no doubt. All in all I love to fly the 701 very much but believe there is room for im provements in several areas. To be fair you could say that about any airpla ne though. -------- Ron Lee Tucson, Arizona Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=339277#339277 le, List Admin. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 10:04:37 AM PST US Subject: Zenith701801-List: Removing labels from aluminum From: Don/Marcia Piermattei I have found that a drop of GOO GONE (Magic American Products) spread onto the label and allowed to soak for 5 minutes allow you to lift the label off. There may be a small amount of stickum left on the part that comes off easily with a drop of lacquer thinner.

Squirt some on the label and in about 60 seconds or less, peel off the label, wipe off the excess and your done. -------- Ron Lendon, Detroit, MI WW Corvair with Roy's Garage 5th bearing Zodiac XL, ScrapBuilder ;-) http://www.mykitlog.com/rlendon Corvair Engine Prints: http://www.zenith.aero/profile/RonLendon Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=339641#339641 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message zenith701801-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Zenith701801-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/zenith701801-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/zenith701801-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
