Philip Smith’s Zenith CH 701, as featured on Kitplanes Newsline
Started building in February of 1997 – finally signed off
after three years, eight months and 20 days. Lost track of the hours
but I’m a perfectionist.
Ran out of parts and excuses November 5th and took her up for the
first flight of fifteen minutes. The picture is of taxi in after first
flight, and the guy with the grin is yours truly. No squawks. Now I
have over three hours on the plane and am waiting on this darn Idaho
weather (17 days after this picture there is about six inches of snow
on the ground with blizzard conditions forecast).
Advice: if you are in the throes of a build keep working at it … the
rewards of flying your own plane are well worth the troubles.
