I'm basically done now and ready for the FAA inspection. I have a call in to the D.A.R. inspector trying to arrange my Airworthiness Certification inspection. 12 hrs, 1011 total hrs. to date.
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.

July 7 & 8, 2012: Completed the installation of the doors and hardware. Painted the doors. Added some "L" stiffeners at the antenna mount thru the roof. Installed the belley pan. Had some fiberglass work done on the engine cowl to smooth the airflow thru the inlets. Re-installed the cowling and laid out for painting. Will paint the cowl later this week.
