After way too many years I finally had DAR Tom Giehart come out and
give Zodiac N601BK his approval. I quickly found that the insurance
company wanted 5 hours in a 601 before the would cover me. I had been
flying a sport cruiser but they would not accept that. I contacted
Paul Hamilton in Carson City NV and scheduled time with him in their
SLSA 601XLi. (Paul(at)SportAviationCenter.com 775:747-0175) I was not
too excited about another 1100 mile car trip, but it turned out to be
one of the most fun times I have had in many years. Paul made the 5
hours some of the most enjoyable flight instruction I have ever had.
N601ZL, their XL, is a delight to fly and the Carson City area is as
beautiful as any place I have ever flown.
With Paul's endorsement in my log the insurance was happy. So,
Thursday evening Zodiac 601XLb N601BK made its first flight over
Bountiful Utah. The plane feels nearly identical to the SLSA I flew
earlier in the week.
Thanks to everyone here on the list. I do not post very often, but I
look at the list daily and many of you have provided help for which
you have never received credit.
Thanks to Paul's help, I have had no bad surprises in the first 3
flights.
