    Chris Anderson, owner of Zenith CH-701 ZK-TIA talks to the Historical Aviation Film Unit about his aircraft, and how he uses it for sport flying in the back country areas of New Zealand.
    This video was shot at Omaka Aerodrome in Blenheim, New Zealand, during the Healthy Bastards Bush Pilot Champs, which is a competition run by the Marlborough Aero Club and the Bulls Flying Doctor Service.

      He said he has a 100 hp Rotax now, it used to have a 120 hp maybe that was a Viking, but nevertheless he says there's a noticeable difference, which is obvious, but the way he says it shows it's a bit more than merely noticeable.

    • @rocketsurgeon4876
      @rocketsurgeon4876 6 років тому +1

      The center of gravity on airplanes that have the tail in the rear like this one is forward of the main wings, so the one in the rear is inverted to apply a downward pressure to keep the nose up.

    • @markjennings2315
      @markjennings2315 6 років тому +1

      The elevator leading edge is rigged inverted to give low speed pitch up control (mostly from prop wash I believe). This thing takes off like a home sick angel!!

    • @steveblackbird
      @steveblackbird 6 років тому +1

      It aids flying stability and trim, Aircraft engineer of 25 years. you'll find most large aircraft, 737, 747, A380 have a horizontal stabilizer constructed this way. Flat or rather flat upper surface with the cambered surface underneath.... the tail isn't a lifting surface..(technically speaking) The wings do that. they're only there for stability and control.

    • @TheJustinJ
      @TheJustinJ 3 роки тому

      The CH-701 never came with a tailwheel, unless some homebuilders swapped one over. The designer intended for it to utilize all available concepts into one package to be easy to fly, and land extremely short. Trike gear works just fine for this as can be seen here: just needed that steep tail-angle to clear the ground. I suggest checking out Zenith aircraft website for all the details.

    • @TheJustinJ
      @TheJustinJ 3 роки тому

      Lycomings suffer in-flight engine failures aproximatly once every 3,600 hours, there is approximately five fatalities per 100,000 hours in General Aviation, a very small number of those are due to engine failure that was not fuel related. And that number has not decreased since the 1980s because the inharent crude design of old fashioned air cooled engines cannot be improved significantly. If automobiles had a total engine failure every 3,600hrs or 100k miles, sometimes killing passengers by careening into trees and fields and streams, people would be outraged. Not in aviation, we call that the gold standard of reliablility.
