Hi there, I'm in view to acquire a CH750 with a Continental O200A engine already installed, question: is there a propeller for the best T/O short distances? The actual owner is not happy with the performance, maybe he does not know exactly what for is this type. Thanks.
The pilot didn't even use flap. 😮
Outstanding. Thank you.
I saw something about this on Viking/Jan's channel/Facebook/whatever, hell I didn't know he was building the damn thing in there, too!! Very cool!
Just picked up my first CH750 Cruzer kit, at the factory In Mexico Missouri. Great people in the office and a clean operation. Loaded my trailer with the tail and fuselage kit, really exited about starting a new aircraft project!!!. With the UL350is engine and a Prince prop, this should be an amazing performer...........
Could’ve done without the music (I don’t understand why pilots feel the need to add it).
I want to work here!!
How much
One day...could a radial engine Zenith become a reality? Nice daydream though....imagine the sound......
There have been one or two Zeniths built with a radial engine. Google "Zenith aircraft radial engine"
That's insane!!!
Yall hiring engineers/business personnel?
ΕΥΧΟΜΑΙ ΜΕ ΟΛΗ ΜΟΥ ΤΗΝ ΨΥΧΗ ΑΓΟΡΙ ΜΟΥ ΝΑ ΚΑΝΕΙΣ ΤΟ ΟΝΕΙΡΟ ΣΟΥ ΠΡΑΓΜΑΤΙΚΟΤΗΤΑ
My 601xls was ‘factory built’ in GA in ‘06. It has the 100hp Continental. Flies excellent. Love the low wing, especially on surprise x-wind landings - which can put the ‘light’ in lightsport. Dual joy-sticks, full Dinon w/AP, plus redundant six-pack. Sweetest little airplane, easy to fly and own. Thank you CH!
Love the 650, but would love you to produce an updated CH 640 match hole drilled. Hope you offer it in a couple of years, so I can build one after I’m done with my CH 750 SD! Would use the Viking 195T to power it. 👍
Lovely machine. What is the speed and fuel burn at a normal cross-country cruise setting with the UL 350i 118hp in the 650?
Happy Anniversary 600 series. As a GM engineer I'm very interested in the Viking 140 "Baby Turbo" GM engine in this airframe. Looking forward to seeing all of the Zenith folks and engine vendors at Airventure this year.
Hey! Saw my 601XL-A in there! Great little plane that evolved very nicely over its 40 years. I really miss flying N360TM.
Fly 4 seater any
Congratulations on 40 year anniversary awesome video love the history!!
Bon 40ième Zenith et Sébastien
Can you tell us some history of the 601 twin that your dad built
I prefer low wing but I am 6'4" and I currently have a '65 Cherokee 140. I feel okay in it but it feels like tight jeans and I was wondering if I would feel any different in the 650. I'm pretty sure the Cruzer would feel roomier with the bubble door option but I'm attracted to the 650's low wings and speed. How tall is Roger?
I think the seats are more comfortable in my 601xl than in any Cherokee. Mostly from the added thigh support. The Cherokee is marginally easier to get in and out but not enough to matter for most. The zenith interior is actually a few inches wider but it’s still a small plane. The speed’s of all zenith aircraft are affected by engine selection. These aircraft really start performing at 120hp+
Jeff, I was scratch building a 650 until I bought a 1969 PA28-140 back in 2016. I sold the Cherokee last year and am considering continuing my 650 build as a close in on retirement. I am 6'2" and have not yet taken a flight in the 650 but hoping to get a demo at Airventure this year.
@@sunmanav8 Oh I would love to hear how you fit. If I do follow through with either the Cruzer or the 650 I would consider using the Viking 140 Turbo. Thank you for responding and congratulations on nearing the end of your career. I'm about 10 years out but I work in the film industry and these two strikes sucked the hope out of retirement.
How did ya'll switch seats with the canopy closed?
Yeah, I was wondering the same thing.
Glad to see the low wing promoted more. Can't wait to get mine finished
Haha! We recorded that part separately, playing with the "Hover Air" flying camera
@@sebastienheintz Parlez vous encore en Français?
@@jeffreyhughes7107 Bien sur :)
Great video, nothing like an early morning flight. The gang at Zenith Aviation do a great job of promoting aviation. Thanks
una persona comun podria construir un avion de estos?
Do yo provide a 3d model for the stol 701 if I purchase the drawings from your website? I want to start a scratch build for the stol 701 and if a 3d model is available, the build will be much easier.
Stol
For an extra 30-40 pounds, you could get 150-160 horsepower out ofman 0-320 couldn't you? So why not? What does the 0-235 offer theat makes it ideal?
any corrosion protection on the QB fuselage?
Yes, we provide basic protection on factory-assembly QB kits
Tell me some training institute in Asia

🥰😊👍👍👍👍
Super 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I see a landing gear improvement on Rogers 701 😁 is this upgrade for sale yet??
I'm surprised there isn't a Prius out there as well. Let me explain. No matter where I mudded or rock crawled out west there was always a Prius that got there first.
I think Roger needs to go to some of the STOL competitions and show em how it's done! Never gets old watching Roger show off the Zenith's flight characteristics .
Wow that's absolutely amazing, peaceful as peaceful can be. Nobody would ever expect you be there. Thanks for posting.
Nice😊
Nice job, I do like the duel control sticks
Beautiful weather. Nice vid!!
Every microsoft flight simulator player: LeT's LaNd A bOeInG 747 hErE
Awesome plane for the price. You can't go wrong.
But where do you put your gear?
The take off is comparable or shorter than paramotor launch 😮
If you want to do a plans built, can you? If you can, can you build the spar from the plans or must it be purchased? Thanks for the video.
Yes, you can scratch-build the aircraft from the plans (including the wing spars)
Thanks for answering. Have a nice day.
Wow are you at gross wt? What's your fuel load. I always like these but I'm not getting any smaller as I age. Flew with Roger many years ago! Hi Roger! How many hrs do log so far? I bet a lot Boss!👍
👋 hallo.... I need vist to factory zenith
That was AWESOME! I had a very cool experience! Thanks Zenith!
