Looks like a perfect day for flying!
Great idea Sebastian, I would love to see a write up or video on Rogers 701 over the years!
I would love to see a write-up or video on Roger's 701 and its history over the last 25 years.
Thank you very much for another one sky chatting 🙂
Glad your business is going strong! It is definitely dynamic times for all industries.
Sweet plane, love the small panel which gives great visibility. Looks like it's a great stick & rudder aircraft!
Nice video from Sebastien and Roger from ZAC. 👍
Unfortunately there are no workshops here in Italy.
My wife Catrin and I are already building our CH 701 STOL.
We still have an old kit where we have to measure everything and drill to the right size ourselves, but it's really fun and we're really happy when we have components ready to prime and paint again.
The builders with matched hole kits don’t realize the fun and satisfaction they are missing out on. I am also building from an old kit and find layout, fabrication and drilling relaxing.
@@RedNeckWelding Yes, it's a lot slower than with the "match drilled holes kit" but it's a lot of fun. 👍
Sometimes I get jealous when Jon Humberd and Calvin Heintz have a rudder ready to rivet in 10 minutes.
Nice demo flight w/ great WX! The Zenith STOL is still on my "short list" of kit planes, should I ever have the means/energy to build/fly one...I got my Sport Pilot ticket flying a FD CTLS; nice, fast plane, but I like "low and slow"!
I have the first 701 made.
Is it possible to have 2 unpanels I get the idea of only 1 and it's can be used by both but still would prefer 2 panels for learning purposes
Yes, the easiest way is to mount two 10" multi-function displays (such as the Garmin G3X, Dynon SkyView HDX and/or tablet) on the same articulating arm.
@zenithairco thanks for responding I'm interested in buying a 750 or the 801
