Building and Flying Info / Your Profession / Other Background Info
I work for Zenair as an aircraft designer, mostly working modifications and improvements for the 750 and 801 series. I've also been pretty heavily involved with the SAM Aircraft project, from helping with the purchase of the assets of SAM Aircraft to designing the SAM-EX. On the side I'm working with the local RAA chapter on finishing a 601XL and have been working on my ultralight pilot permit.

Brian, 

How wide a bending brake do I need to scratch-build a CH650? 

Regards,

Charlie Dudley
