Zenith unveiled the prototype of its new CH 750 Super Cruzer at EAA AirVenture, presenting a tricycle-gear, all-metal, high-wing aircraft designed as a cross-country cruiser.
This new model refines previous CH 750 designs, combining increased cruise speed, cross-country performance, and generous useful load with a spacious cabin and STOL capabilities.
It features roomy side-by-side seating with a rear jump seat, a 50-inch-wide cabin for enhanced visibility, is powered by a Lycoming O-360 engine, and comes equipped with a Garmin G3X display.
Zenith emphasizes its industry-leading ease of construction for kit builders, utilizing match-drilled parts and blind rivet assembly for an estimated assembly time of less than 400 hours.
The next incarnation of the Zenith CH 750 has officially been unveiled to the public at EAA AirVenture in the form of the prototype CH 750 Super Cruzer.
During Tuesday’s unveiling, the company noted the prototype was flown to Oshkosh, Wisconsin, from the Zenith factory in central Missouri.
