While the classic STOL CH 701 and CH 750 models remain legendary for their extreme off-airport performance and ability to operate out of tiny pastures, cross-country sport pilots have continually asked for a machine that merges these versatile takeoff-and-landing attributes with higher cruise efficiency, greater payload flexibility, and expanded cabin comfort. The Zenith CH 750 Super Cruzer is the direct result of that engineering evolution. Aerodynamic Refinement Without Losing Utility: The Super Cruzer re-engineers the wing profile to deliver genuine cross-country cruising speeds without sacrificing slow-speed safety. By utilizing a high-lift airfoil configured specifically for clean aerodynamics—omitting fixed leading-edge slats while incorporating high-efficiency trailing-edge flaps and flaperons—the Super Cruzer reduces parasitic drag significantly. High-Speed Cruising: Easily achieves true cross-country cruise speeds in the 115 to 125+ mph range, depending on engine selection and propeller optimization. Low Stall Speeds: Retains docile, predictable low-speed characteristics with a low stall speed that keeps approach speeds relaxed and short runways accessible. High Useful Load: Engineered to maximize gross weight capacity, allowing two full-sized adults, full fuel, and a generous cargo load of cross-country luggage or outdoor gear. Powerplant Versatility: Choose Your Ideal Engine Zenith airframes are engineered to be powerplant-agnostic, giving builders the freedom to install the engine that best matches their mission, regional fuel availability, and budget. The CH 750 Super Cruzer platform accommodates a broad spectrum of modern aviation engines. Cockpit Innovation: The "Unpanel" Design. One of the most eye-catching developments featured in this flight is the Unpanel cockpit architecture: Unmatched Forward and Downward Visibility: By removing the traditional full-width sheet metal instrument dashboard, the Unpanel suspends modern glass-cockpit EFIS displays on a clean, cantilevered pedestal. Unprecedented Legroom & Knee Clearance: Both pilot and passenger enjoy an open cockpit atmosphere without banging knees against instrument bulkheads or lower sub-panels. Flexible Modern Avionics: Easily configure dual displays, integrated GPS, moving maps, angle-of-attack (AOA) indicators, and engine monitoring systems (EMS) with minimal wiring harness clutter. #BuildItFlyIt #ch750 #ZenithAircraft #zenithair #ch750SuperCruzer
