|
|
All,
I have a CH 701 Kit with completed wings, slats, elevator, rudder and
fuselage. Includes Rotax engine, engine mount, basic instruments, cowling
(upper and lower), spinner and propeller, plans (several sets), several
years worth of Newsletters. The wings have been wired and lights are
attached. Wing tanks installed. Center yoke stick. I would say the kit is
about 75%+ complete with very nice workmanship. Have been working on the
cockpit and basic engine installation. My guess is that it will take about
125 hours to make the airplane airworthy with a basic interior, no paint,
etc. Am about to start working on the addition of some inspection ports. I
do not have to sell this kit and can finish it during the next year or so i=
f
it is not sold.
I have found a CH601 with a tail wheel that is complete and flying. It has =
a
modified canopy that was approved by CH with an upgraded Continental A65.
Needs paint and several other items (radio, transponder, wing lockers,
etc.). My intent is to purchase the airplane because I will be flying soone=
r
and I believe it will meet my needs very well.
I have flown the airplane and it does well with two 210 +/- 5'10" pilots
aboard - even on a 92 degree day with a DA of 4,300 +/- at our 2,600' deser=
t
airport. Not the same short-field capability as the 701, but it will meet m=
y
needs very well. More importantly, I think my wife likes it better, or at
least seems too. I am sure that many can understand my desire to fly is
stronger than my desire to build - even though I enjoy both.
I do not have to sell the 701 anytime soon, but would like to do so in orde=
r
to make purchasing the 601 easier on my wife and my life. I paid $14,000 fo=
r
the kit, engine, etc. and would like to sell it somewhere within that
ball-park. I will consider reasonable offers. The airplane is fairly close
to Tucson, Arizona. Please contact me at Marinegunner(at)gmail.com if you migh=
t
be interested and/or would like to learn more. I would appreciate calls fro=
m
anyone who is really interested in purchasing a CH 701, rather than from
someone who is simply curious. You can feel free to pass this information
along to any of your friends who are not on the list, but might be
interested.
