Hey Mike

Choosing the engine for your CH750 is a real tough choice. I agonized over the it for about a month and then paid $6000 more for the Rotax 912S over the Jabiru 3300. Now there is the UL power engine to further complicate the choice. Good luck.

Hi Mike,

I have been following the progress of your 701 on line and just wanted to drop you a line and say hello. I live in a little airpark community called Shady which is about 5 miles south of Ocala along I-75. I've been working my way through a 750 kit for the last several months and have the tail feathers and one wing completed. This is my first kit aircraft project and I'm working slowly and deliberately. Since you live nearby and are starting a 750, I hope that I might be able to check out your project occasionally and get some help and advice from a very experienced builder.

Stop by if you are over this way.
