This Blog picks picks up the progress of the building of my Experimental Class homebuilt plane project from Dec. 2011.
The Zenith CH750 is designed for short take offs and landings. It will be powered by a Continental C-90 engine that I had completely rebuilt by Dan Martinez, a mechanic in San Antonio with a good reputation for quality work. Fuel capacity will be 30 gallons, which should provide a conservative 4.5 hrs of flight time with 30 minutes to spare.
