Steve Flattum flight tests the upgraded Zodiac XL B model at the Zenith Aircraft factory. He reported: " I used a calibrated G meter for some dive tests. The airplane is very strong. I won't give any details on how many G's I pulled because I don't want anybody trying this at home. I tested for flutter at various speeds. This may not sound very scientific but I used the stick bump, shake and jerk methods that are standard for flight testing. The results were impressive with no flutter characteristics observed.
"The 601 family of airplanes are a delight to fly. Simple and easy to fly with a great view and they are very comfortable for long flights. The airplane is very strong and it is backed by a company that has been around for a very long time."
Steve Flattum is a 20,000 hour pilot who has flown over 100 types of aircraft. He enjoys doing first flights, flight testing and instruction in experimental airplanes.
