Default Zenith 601 builders!!!

Which brings up an interesting question. There is often a complaint that
the 601XL plane flys "left heavy." I wonder if this is because we don't
build it as well and it isn't quite as good an airfoil as the right. The
build manual has the left built first so just about everyone does it
that way.


My Zodiac does that, too. I think it's just the weight of the pilot on the
left side. I don't recall that it flew left wing heavy when I had a friend
who weighs more than I do in the right seat.
