Hi Wayne,

Enjoyed the Midland Fly-In very much ... it was good meeting you as well. Don't know if Edenvale is in the cards at this time but hope to see you there.

Cheers, Tony

Thanks Wayne,

We met at the Thursday lunch 4-5 weeks ago.. I was the guy asking all the questions about your 701. I’d love to come have a look at yours sometime.

cheers

Hello Wayne did you get a  chance to test fly the plane for the new season? Flew Teds 701 from owensound to edenvale yesterday..nice flying airplane. Flew mine last weekend and finally the radio seems to be working properly. we have to get together at some point Im ready for my climb test and file to get away from the airport tired of flying circles around for 25 miles...maybe you can fly up to owensound just call me first to see if Im up? Ron and Val

Wayne,  who knows why a cylinder develops a crack?  Unless you send it away for analysis to see if it was a material or manufacturing defect I would be guessing.  If I am going to guess I would say it may be "under" designed.  ULPower has increased the thickness of the flange and cylinder base since my early version of the engine.  As it stands now, I have replaced only that one cylinder with the newer version and will keep any eye on the others.

Congratulation on your new hangar...I'm envious!! Cheers and Merry Christmas...Dave

they are Rebel floats, 1800 displacement. A good , strong float.

Ted’s 701 is in Fred’s hanger at CYOS, he brought it there for me to take the floats off. I live near there and was not going to drive to lake Simco to work on his plane. 

I am in the midths of building a set of anphib floats that go on a Murphy Rebel that belongs to my neighbour at CYOS . That is a lot of work and would not do it again.  The Rebel is a nice plane.

i have no info on the other Zenith ptoducts. 

Ted has a cirrus, 172 on floats, and the 701. He lives on Lake Simco. Ron and Ted are blood brothers

Ted Cohen is in Fred’s hanger with Ron, i took the floats off Ted’s plane and put on jeep gear. He has it up for sale. I my hanger ,i took the floats off of Dave’s plane and put on jeep gear. My Vans is in there also that should be sold this week. I am looking for something else. Started fixing up a KIt fox but it will be a while before that is done.
