Dragonfly Aviation in Northern California had 2 of them. I just do not know if they have had the upgrade yet. I know one of them was a factory built, so it may be back online. I plan on calling them soon to get about 5 hours in before I test mine out!

Hi guys,
I too would like to get some time in before my first test flight. I'm not ready yet, but I hope to be getting there soon.
I hope folks will publish information about XL rentals available on this list. I'm sure lots of folks would love to get a checkout in the next year.

Paul Hamilton offers both rental and instruction in a 601XLB in the Reno area.
http://sportaviationcenter.com/pilot-training/aircraft-rental/
Since E-AB's cannot be used for rentals, all rentals and instruction and
rental must be done in S-LSA's which are subject to the mandatory upgrade
under the SAIB. Hence any 601XL/650 available for rental or instruction
must be XLB's.

It looks like there is still one in Holland, Michigan.

Dave and all,
You are correct. Tulip City Airport DOES have a CH601XL-B. I just received information from them stating the aircraft HAS been upgraded. Here's their website: www.tulipcityair.com
I know I will be heading up there next spring when I'm closer to completing my CH650. I'm working on the upgrade right now. (Thanks Tim Juhl for your help getting me started again!)

You might consider looking for a Piper Sport. It is almost identical
to the un-modified 601XL but with different hinges for control surfaces
and a different (and weaker) nose wheel. Other than having to be more
careful to keep the nose up until the speed bleeds down, it handles the
same.

Also for even another option I took my transition training in a Remos GX it
has a stick control and has very close airspeeds to the 601XL even though
it is a high wing aircraft it worked for me. David Coberly 601XLB / Corvair
