Zenith CH-750 Cruzer FLYING

It was such a nice winter day in Michigan that two Yeager-like pilots (me and Gordon) decided to fly the Zenith Cruzer. We talked about the weather, KZbin, and mostly about how Brian never flies. Heck we aren't even sure he still lives at the airpark or still owns and airplane!
Make sure you watch this video ALL THE WAY to the end!
Enjoy!

Mark, It is worth it ! We love watching you build and fly, Please keep doing what you do!

[@weluvbikes07]

Don’t stop making the build video’s, I love watching them. It has me considering a build for myself.

[@patway4683]

Your videos are always fun Mark! Always look forward to them!

[@tomshelton435]

Love these vids.

[@theresacaron4238]

Mark, really enjoy your videos as they are not about your ego or showing off by building something no one else could possibly afford. Blue skies.

[@davidrobins4025]

That was a fun flight. I enjoyed listening to the two of you having fun on t his flight. Brian missed out.

[@davejoynt6276]

Im not sure why you make these videos, but im sure glad you do, you are pretty much my number 1 flying channel, you even beat out Mike Patey. Lol It would be cool if you could bring us along on one of your commercial flights, not sure if that would be allowed, but it would be very cool to see you in that environment, please dont stop making videos, alot of people look forward to see them.

[@KitplaneEnthusiast]

Thanks glad you like flying along!

[@paulbrunner1818]

WTF?! As a long time Brian fan, I’m deeply offended by this video 🤭! Actually, great candid post, well done. And #savebrian

[@KitplaneEnthusiast]

Come on...Brian doesn't have any fans! LOLOLOL

[@CalebICT]

It’s not about the money. I appreciate that you share your experience. If I’m not out flying, I look to see what others are doing

[@KitplaneEnthusiast]

I do that too. I love watching Trent’s and other’s flying videos because they keep me ‘flying’ when I’m not flying myself. I’m excited to get this Super Duty done and then focus on making good flying content!

[@ToyManFlyer1100]

Poor Brian....Can't catch a break...😂😂😂

[@carlmccall7198]

Hahaha nice man

[@fritz1849]

Before I found your channel, I never considered building an aircraft myself. To me just seemed to complicated and full of frustrations, you make it look fun and approachable. Now I'll just have to decide which kit to get.

[@carolinabearhawk8132]

Bearhawk Bearhawk lol. It all depends on what kind of flying you want!

[@denny5564]

Talk me into building one. I'm at the "just do it" stage and need a shove.

[@KitplaneEnthusiast]

Give Zenith a call and get your kit ordered. You'll have an amazing project and you will meet amazing people through this hobby!

[@denny5564]

@@KitplaneEnthusiast Thanks man ! It will happen within the next couple of days.

[@ikay2102]

Hello you two my name Is Brian, and I'm crying 🤣🤣

[@KitplaneEnthusiast]

Brian does cry a lot so…

[@Know-Way]

Thanks for making fun of Brian. Oh, and the flying video.

[@n206ja]

Now Mark ... you know why you make these videos - you're a natural educator and obviously love building. It'd be a shame not to share with others and promote homebuilding. Thanks for all you do!

[@KitplaneEnthusiast]

Thanks John. Honestly that is true that I just enjoy sharing some of the things I’ve learned over the last 20+ years building planes or working on fighter jets. I hope it helps people and really does promote GA.

[@jimharter3131]

Mark, Thanks for what you are doing with your channel. I have been doing a little research on ULPower engines and thought you would be the right guy to answer this question. Do you use 100LL in your Cruzer? I'm asking because I keep reading that they recommend mogas, but 100LL is OK with the TCP additive. I've never be able to find mogas at an airport and there is a warning about carrying TCP in the airplane. That seems to limit the ability to do much x-country flying. I can't find any useful information about this on-line, so I'm hoping you can set me straight.

[@KitplaneEnthusiast]

I only use auto fuel, but did use 100LL to and from Oshkosh with no issues.

[@jimharter3131]

@@KitplaneEnthusiast Thanks! That's the one issue that makes me hesitant to buy a ULPower engine - or Viking. Otherwise, they both have a lot of advantages.

[@darrenweston6056]

Hi Mark what speed do you normally fly at when just out and about like in the video today just curious compared to my Rotax 912 100hp thanks

[@KitplaneEnthusiast]

I'm normally cruising at 2400-2500 rpm and see between 90-95 kts.

[@darrenweston6056]

@@KitplaneEnthusiast thanks Mark faster than my rotax by about 10mph

[@williamlanphar630]

Poor Brian...

[@bruggemw]

I don’t know Brian but I am sure he would be more interesting if he flew more… civic duty fulfilled.

[@danielbasovitch5087]

Mark, you never said if you have heat in your plane.

[@KitplaneEnthusiast]

Yes the Cruzer has heat. It works nicely too!

[@Know-Way]

@@KitplaneEnthusiast Will the super duty have a similar heat system?

[@KitplaneEnthusiast]

@@Know-Way It will be similar in that it will use a heat muff around the muffler. But once it comes into the cabin I want to split it off to a windshield defroster which I did not do in the Cruzer.

[@user-tl5fi9lz9z]

So my Super Duty kit arrived yesterday. (It took more than a month to get up here to Alaska!) Now I have a five foot tall mountain of brown paper in my garage.

[@KitplaneEnthusiast]

Awesome!
