About the Zenair CH 701

The Zenair CH 701 STOL is a Canadian-designed kit aircraft that has earned a devoted following for its remarkable short takeoff and landing capabilities, routinely operating from grass strips, sandbars, and backcountry airstrips that would challenge far larger aircraft. Designed by Chris Heintz in the 1980s and offered as a plans-built or kit aircraft by Zenair Ltd., the CH 701 features a distinctive high-wing configuration with full-span leading-edge slats that deploy automatically, enabling stall speeds below 30 knots and takeoff rolls under 100 feet in ideal conditions. Its rugged fixed tricycle gear and simple all-metal construction make it popular among bush pilots and recreational aviators seeking an affordable platform for exploring remote terrain.

With a typical cruise speed around 80-90 knots and a never-exceed speed of 115 knots, the CH 701 prioritizes low-speed handling and STOL performance over cross-country speed, making it ideal for local exploration rather than long-distance travel. The aircraft's light wing loading and generous control surfaces provide responsive handling at speeds where most certificated aircraft would be approaching stall, and its 1,320-pound maximum takeoff weight qualifies it for Light-Sport Aircraft category in the United States when appropriately configured. Powered by engines ranging from 50 to 100 horsepower—commonly the Rotax 912 series—the CH 701 demonstrates that sophisticated aerodynamics and thoughtful design can deliver extraordinary capability in a simple, homebuilt package.
