While changing oil this weekend, I was looking at the magnet on the end of the plug for contamination. I noticed it was a little off center so I twisted it a little and it fell off. I don't know how…Continue

I don't understand why the exhaust on my 350is continues to be black and sooty. Was like that when I uncrated it and hasn't improved after 10 hours of operation.Continue

Yesterday I decided to run the fuel pumps to cycle some fuel through the engine. Both pumps bogged down and produced no pressure. After removing the pumps and much dinking around, I found both check…Continue

Thanks, Tom. We have taxied the high school plane and are just waiting on FSDO to set up inspection so we can fly it.
Stop by our hangar at SZT some time.
We would like to see and hear about your project.

Yes, the 601HD can be interesting to land. Glad it is the HD as in heavy duty-- as I have had some carrier landings. I would like to see your project. We had one CH701 at KSFF and I had a chance to fly that plane prior to buying the Zodiac. I use Experimental 16BZ call sign as when I use Zodiac, they think Kodiak! I have about 20 or so hours on the plane and we are becoming friends!
thank you sir, I'm gonna do my best.
I didn't powder coat anything, just primer and paint. I can't think of any reason you shouldn't powder coat the steal components if you wish. Yes, you should protect the steel parts. My torque tubes and other "unseen" steel components only have primer on them.
The great adventure begins.... happy building Tom
