Design and development
The CH 801 is based on the general design and features of the smaller two-place STOL CH 701 model. It offers a useful load of 1,000 lb (450 kg), which is double the 701's 500 lb (230 kg). While both aircraft look alike they do not share any common parts.[2][4]
The STOL CH 801 is made from sheet aluminium and employs a deep wing chord, full-length leading edge slots and trailing edge flaperons to develop high lift at low speed, while maintaining a short wing-span for maximum strength and ground maneuverability.[2][4]
By the end of 2011 160 CH 801s had been completed and were flying.[1]
