Default early Zenair's

Wondering if anyone out there has any opinions on the flying qualities
of the early Zenair/Zenith aircraft. Like the Ch100 and Ch 250? Any
pitfalls or things to know? Any flying in the US?
Thanks!
Why Zenair vs. Zenith name thing? Was Zenair a seperate company? vs
Zenith in Missouri now...
They were all designed by Heintz, were they not?
Just curious...

THis is right if you change your definition of Europe to the cold frozen
country North of USofA.


I thought I read about one son that runs an OP in Czech republic...

The Canadian OP makes the certified planes...

Zenair is in Canada and the is where Chris is. Two of the sons are in Mexico
MO with Zenith Aircraft and a third has just started up or is starting up a
Zenith Aircraft support service in California.

I don't know if the Czech outfit is one of the sons or not.

Aren't the certified planes built by Alarus in GA?

I should have put a "?" instead of the "..."

I never traced the origin of them. There is/was a family aircraft
history on one of the websites. Its been sometime since I read it...
