The back inside cover of the September issue of Kit0 Planes has a nice photo of a 701 and the proud owner /  builder.0 (who is probably reading this).....

  

 Ya know, the 601 is sweet, fast  and sexy0 looking, but the 701 is like an old comfortable shoe....slip it on ever so0 easy.....easy in and out.  The 601 is a little more demanding to get in and0 out of ....but it is such a looker....

  

 Anyone else choose the 701 over the 601 for such0 reasons??  I am in the looking/dreaming  stage at this0 time.

Bill,

 Ditto for me, I fly out of my back yard, would like to0 build a bigger and faster plane but the selection is limited because of my short0 runway.

Bill,  

   

I’m a clear weather low and slow kind of guy so the not so snappy 701 cruise doesn’t bother me.  I also like the fact that the wings can be detached as I am building in one bay of a two car garage. I prefer high wing a/c for sight seeing. There are many short unimproved fields in my area and I expect the 701 will be wonderful for visiting these.  Finally, sniff, I have to use training wheels so my STOL options are limited.  

   

PLEASE Do Not Archive

We are very happy with our 701,  Great airplane for grass strips,   



I think that the cruise speed of our 701  is good enough, even for Cross Country flying.



Ours cruise at 87 mph (indicated)  (at) 5,100 rpm.    so I think is not a slow airplane, given the other good advantages...   just plan your refueling "legs"  in advance and could make good planned flights.
