Ray Winsky
(Alcoa, TN):
"This is my CH801 completed and flying. I started building in Oct. 1999 and first flight was on June 12, 2003. It flies as good as it looks and I think it looks beautiful. It is powered by
a Lycoming O-320 D2G souped up to 180 HP with High domed pistons. I have just completed the 40 hrs. of testing and will now crate it up and ship it to Zambia, Africa for missionary duty. I
will be flying for a group of missionaries there.
"Nick and Roger at Zenith Aircraft were a tremendous help from start to finish."

Dave's LOM-powered STOL CH 801 Flies:
"The airplane flies great and engine
runs great. Solid 3 hours flight time and no major problems I
will give you more numbers on the speeds and performance as the
testing continues. One number I can give you is with the
constant speed prop, the take off run was 225 feet. Take into
account no flaps were used and the power was eased in very slow.
Climb is 1,500+ fpm."
