Bill;
I saw the most recent video that you made. I will be flying your way in my CH801 this summer. Do you have any good recommended places to go, tips on beach landings, etc? Thanks

Hey Bill,
Good to hear from you! I crashed my CH-701 on Kustatan River last August. I'm in Texas until May 11 so I can't attend but thanks for the invite.
Best Regards,

Hi Bill,
Were you ever in contact with Jeff Fortune? I tried to message him on his page, but no response yet. Is he still involved with Zenair aircraft, or is he out of flying. you wouldn't happen to have his email, by any chance, would you?
We are going to be driving up there, later this summer, just by car. I wish we were flying, but not this time. Do you ferry your 801 back and forth every year, of does it stay in Alaska?
Regards
Gary
Good morning Bill,
Just wondering how long you stay up there in Alaska in the summer. You did mention hunting up there in the fall, so I imagine you stay till September at least. We are thinking of our vacation trip the last week in August, first 2 weeks in September. Just wondering if you would still be up there. What kind of temperatures would we be seeing? We have been looking at some scenery pictures on the web, looks like it might be hard to leave Alaska, once you go there, Thanks again for the info on the under seat fuel pumps.
Regards
Gary G
Bill,
A local print shop used the basic logo that Zenair sent me and modified it with the 801 in the center and matched our paint colors close enough. I got it approved from Zenair to use it that way. We really like it. Ken.
Contact is in Claremore, Oklahoma
