James Mikelson (Brush
Prairie, WA):
"In October of 2002 the Zenith XL kit was picked up and the
project began. 14 months later on Dec. 17, 2003 the complete
airplane was pulled out of the hanger
"Power is a Jabiru 3300 with a Sensenich wood propeller.
Build time was about 650 hours including the sliding canopy
mod."

Rick Herndon (Arlington,
VA):
"The building process was a great learning experience and
afforded unexpected opportunities to meet many new friends...
"The aircraft is powered by a Rotax 912 ULS with a Warp Drive
70-inch diameter prop. Flight characteristics are stable, yet very
responsive to control inputs. A pleasure to fly."
