Me and my plane

[ch601xl]

Hi all

 

I thought that I should say hi instead of just reading everyone else's messages.

 

My name is Phill Barnes and I am building a Zenith Zodiac 601XL with 650 canopy from a quickbuild kit. My powerplant is a new Jab 3300A with Jab USA FWF kit. After years of research, my shortlist was a Jab J160 or a Zenith 601XL. Options that I wanted like dual sticks were not available in the Jab.

 

Here is a link to my website Phillip Barnes - Experimental Aircraft Builder's Log

 

So please have a look at what i'm up to and leave a message if you like.

 

I look forward to responding to some new aquaintances.

 

Regards

G`Day Phill and ,it looks like you`re doing great work,good onya.

 

I got into recreational aviation by building my own AC 25 years ago and I`ve flown many different types over the years.

 

I`ve got quite a few hrs in the Zenith 701 and I would assume that it is similar in performance to your 601, so yours should be great.

 

Regards,

 

Frank.
