First introduced in 1986, the STOL CH 701 aircraft was developed as an off-airport, short take-off and landing kit aircraft to fulfill the demanding requirements of both sport pilots and first-time builders. With the STOL CH 701, designer Chris Heintz combined the features and advantages of a “real” airplane with the short-field capabilities of an “ultralight” aircraft. The aircraft features fixed leading-edge slats for high lift, full-span flaperons (both ailerons and flaps), an all-flying rudder, and durable all-metal construction.
Created in meticulous detail, the SWS 701 features:
• Detailed visual model made from factory drawings
• Realistic flight model with accurate STOL performance
• Sounds recorded from the real aircraft
• Detailed cockpit featuring custom instruments
• Door and no-door variants in four liveries
• A bush trip through New York state
• Three airports improved with custom objects and ground textures
• Lufker (49N)/Spadaro (1N2)
• Sky Acres (44N)
• Roxbury Runway (1NK0)
• Note: The aircraft makes use of the default GNS530 and GTX330
