Donna retires after 18 years at Zenith Aircraft
After 18 years, Donna Zimmerman will be retiring from Zenith Aircraft Company at the end of this year.
Donna was responsible for shipping and receiving, making sure the many parts that make up the kits were carefully packaged and crated. Here, Donna works on one of her last shipments, helping Glen (of Hulett, Wyoming) pack his STOL CH 750 wings, slats and flaperon kit on his trailer this morning (pictured above and below). Donna has helped pack thousands of kit parts and pieces on customers' trailers or in the back of their vehicles, and looked forward to helping them get their Zenith kit parts safely home.
Over her years at Zenith Aircraft she was responsible for packing literally hundreds of Zenith Aircraft kits, shipped to customers across the country and around the world.
Above left, Donna rests against a carefully crated kit containing all the parts to build a Zenith aircraft.
With excellent attention to detail, Donna was also tasked with quality control of the many parts manufactured in the Zenith Aircraft factory in Mexico, Missouri.

We thank Donna for her 18 years service at Zenith Aircraft Company.
Please join us in wishing Donna all the best in her well-deserved retirement! Wishing her success in this next phase in her life.

Thank you Donna. You should be proud that you have helped so many people fulfil their dream of flying an aircraft that they have built.
If ever you travel to Australia, you have friends here too. I count myself as one of them, although we have never met.

Donna we were fortunate enough to meet you twice, when we picked up our 701 kit and the firewall forward, you were great and we felt confident that the parts were all there. Thanks and have a great retirement. Keith and Claudia Paterson
