Ken,
The blueprints aren't too bad, but this is my first plane, so I have no
reference point.
The Wing Manual won't be completed for 'several months". I'm using the 701
manual as a reference.works ok, but not ideal.
I was an artilleryman, with 1/12 and attached to 3/3 in Hawaii 1978-82.
Hey, someone had to volunteer to protect those beaches!
Semper Fi,

Hello Ed.
Semper fi back at you. I was a "Reagan Marine" back in the early 80's.
Please tell me Zenith has done a better job of creating understandable
blueprints and builders assistance than what they offered in years past. I
was just speaking to another building of a different aircraft few days ago
who mentioned a Zenith 750 being built at his airport. The Zenith builder
biggest complaint is the blueprints and lack of clear instructions. Has
Zenith not offer clear and concise blueprints for builder to follow? I plan
on purchasing my kit in February 2009 making sure other builders were not
having issues with their building and assembly. Why no plans for the wings?

Anyone start their wings yet?
I went to attach the wing spar tip 75W3-2 to the spar, and I have 2
pre-driven
rivets in the rivet line where the tip attaches. Do I leave them and rivet
the
tip as is, warping the tip web, or drill them out and replace them w/ A5's,
or do I cut out the tip web at the corner around the rivets so the tip web
is
flush with the spar web?
A Manual for the wings would certainly make life easier.
