    CH-701 Project

    CH-701 Project
    The time has come, I realize I'm not going to finish my CH-701 so I'm going to see if anyone would like to pick up where I left off. The wings, without slats, or slat brackets are complete, one flaperon, rudder, stabilizer and elevator are also complete. Everything is plans built except the wing tanks that I picked up from the factory. I calculated from the Zenith web site, that the cost of the kits for the parts I have completed is a little over $7000.00, I would like to get $4000.00 for what I have built. I have no idea if this is a good price or not so, I'm just putting it out there. If you are interested, make an offer, the worst is I'll say no. I also have a couple of 4' X 12' sheets of 0.016 6061, some 0.025, some 0.040 and I think, 0.032. I also have quite a few clecos and some other fasteners of different sizes that can be added if wanted. I have more pictures if anyone is interested.

    You may want to add some "0s" to your sheet aluminum thicknesses. Otherwise you have some thick honking aluminum.

    Thanks melann, it was right in my mind, but a disconnect between there and my keyboard.
