I'm glad Deane is involved building the first new 701. Between Deane and Jan they will be able to give some valuable feedback on any minor issues that need to be tweeked at the factory. Many 701 builders are totally "green" when it comes to assembling a homebuilt airplane. I can't wait till the complete new kit is available. Better be stocking up on baby turbo engines Jan! Got a feeling this combo of engine and airplane is going to be a huge hit in the stol community. Thank you Jan and Deane for the effort you are putting into the 701 project . The 701 is kinda like a 4-wheeler around the farm. "Everybody needs one" Back to Work!
