I wish they’d make those people wear signs that show how tall they are so we could judge how big it really is. It does seem to be about the size of a 170.

Those internal shocks are pretty cool, and they look like they give the wheels plenty of travel for landing on rough fields.

Those are giant flaps. I wonder what the stall speed is at full flaps.

Looks great on the 26’s. Lots of flap going on……..

26 Goodyears are heavy but wear like iron, 8.50s the 4 ply dresser smooth ones would be awesome they’re nearly same size and weigh less welre gonna try some on our 180

At first glance it looks like there are no doors at all. They are just picture windows with a frame around them.

I like this aircraft with what I've seen so far...

I would be surprised if it was anything other than a Lycoming 320.

Needs to be a 360 with other options.

I have been looking at a Zenth Cruzer, which is smaller and slower but also cheaper and easier to build.

It looks like it has huge flaps. Should have pretty good short field performance.

Here's a good YouTube channel on the Zenith. https://www.youtube.com/c/KitplaneEnthusiast1

I think they are very cool. I actually like the look of them but some think they're butt ugly, and of course it's a tri-gear only. The cockpit visibility and stol performance speak for themselves though, and as you mentioned they are known for being simple to build. I'm a fan!

perhaps just a test flight for certification issue? Note what appear to be pull pins on the doors for easy egress if things go south.
