My Zenith CH701 received an FAA  airworthiness certificate on December 17, 2007 with first flight following on  Christmas Day. I built N701N from a Zenith complete airframe kit and a Skyshops  firewall-forward kit. Engine is a Rotax 912ULS with Woodcomp propeller;  instruments are steam gauges with a Microair Comm and Transponder. I logged  2,560 hours of building over thirty-three months, including painting. This was  my first airplane project and I enjoyed the entire experience. The Zenith  Matronics List was a great help in building my airplane. Special thanks to Larry  Martin, Brian Unruh, Tommy Walker, Dirk Slabbert, Jerry Erickson, John  Flavin and others on this list who were willing to share their experiences  and recommendations. Now, if the never-ceasing winds around here will finally  die down, I'll be happy to get back to flying!

Congratulations on the first flight  Jeff,

  

 Your plane looks great. I see that you are not very  far from me, I'm near Dayton. I finished my 701 this summer and I'd like to get  together sometime and swap building and flying info, I now have about 44 hours  on mine. Please send me an email ( kissellr(at)ameritech.net (kissellr(at)ameritech.net) ) I'm  hangared at New Carlisle, Ohio.
