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. -- Jay Maynard, K5ZC http://www.conmicro.com http://jmaynard.livejournal.com http://www.tronguy.net Fairmont, MN (FRM) (Yes, that's me!)
