I am building a CH650 in Australia and have found that my center wing spar is the wrong angle (XL601) and that the front fuselage side skins are also wrong (a mix of XL601 outer dimensions and CH650 pre drilled holes). As it will take some time for replacement parts to arrive down under, I would be interested to hear from anyone that is further along with the build (either CH650 or late XL601) that may be able to advise of other parts that are not correct so that I may have them all sent to me in one shipment. I believe that there may be an issue with the seat bottom? and maybe the top skin?

The seat pan I received isn't as much wrong as it is different and
undocumented. There is a flange added to the outboard side which replaces the
"L" angle shown on the plans.

Someone else reported a flange on the inboard side that replaced the "L" angle
there. That one would bother me, because it allows any "slop" in the location
of the center console to be corrected.

I had a lot of problems with the predrilled holes in the wings not lining up
correctly. I managed to make them fit, but only with difficulty.
