Jaime- another thing to consider- I put $ down on a Rebel Elite at Oshkosh.
I did
get a "show discount", but also got the impression that part of the discount
was due
to devaluation of the Canadian$ vs. the US$. It may pay to call and see if
such a
discount still applies to a $commitment made "today". On top of all the
other good
features mentioned, from an aesthetic point of view, while a Rebel may not
be "sexy"
looks wise, I prefer it to the CH801 from this perspective. Just my 2 cents
worth!

Hi Guys,

I've been enjoying all your emails for many months for I am also where our
new friend (Tim) is in compairing kits.

I was rather excited about the Murphy Rebel until the price change last
year. These prices seem to WAY outpace inflation! Then I began to slow
down and look around more...

I found a real nice one here in Missouri (where I live) the CH 801 by
Zenith Aircraft. I am probably going to go with it or I'll just go with a
Cessna or J3 Cub cause the kit industry has gotten too pricey.

I am looking for a 3-4 seat puddle jumper with some cargo (dream on) or
just one with STOL (for fishing and hunting and pricey burgers) and
respectable range. You know, I want it all! Smile.

Anyway, I don't really see the Murphy Rebel as viable competition anymore,
however I do enjoy your conversations.

I sincerely hope that I am not coming across as insulting to you folks, it
is not my intent.

jaime
