Yes, it is I again...
Context: I am building a CH601-HD, from plans, and will install the 650 canopy (already ordered).
Meaning I don't have the 650 drawings yet.
The question is, how is the top engine fitting (6B6-4) positioned in relation to the rear firewall reinforcement, 6B7-2?
From the pictures I have seen, it seems 6B6-4 goes on top of the bottom flange of 6B7-2, and the longeron fits under the flange.
I am a bit suspicious because the first bolt through 6B6-4 and the longeron is 14 mm from the fitting flange/firewall, right on the edge of the 6B7-2 flange.
I suppose one can cut a small piece of the flange to avoid the interference, but I haven't noticed this in the pictures I have seen.
I'd appreciate a word from the XL builders out there using the latest 6B6-4 design

Hey Carlos,
Send me your snail mail address. I will send you the video for doing the 650 canopy from Homebuilt help.com. It is incredibly helpful.

In the 601XLB, the plans show clearly that the mount fitting 6B6-4 does not sit atop of the lower flange for 6B7-2. The longeron is located above and without contacting the lower flange for 6B7-2.

Hello, Bill
I spoke to Caleb this morning and he sent me a couple of drawings showing the parts exactly as you described.
(The 6B... parts did not exist in the CH601 plans, reason why I couldn't figure.)
Thanks for the explanation
Carlos
