| Wonder what type of wing/flap arrangement he has on that plane. I also noticed he yanks the right float off the water first.... Interesting.... Charles

| Zenith STOL CH-701 homebuilt. It has full-span flaperons and also has fixed leading edge slats. Bigger brother is the STOL CH-801 that's a four-seater. The CH-701 seats two. Gary |

| They are flaperons, not slotted flaps? Hmmm.

| Yep. Check out Zenithair.com. That's the kit manufacturer and they've got specs and pics for both the 701 and 801 on the site. There have been a lot of flaperons on high wing kit airplanes for quite a while. The Avid, Kitfox and Zenith aircraft come to mind immediately. Gary |

| I did! Excellent discussion of the designers philosophy and a rudimentary course on aerodynamics to boot! Anatomy of a STOL Aircraft
