PlaneFox tracks 1 Zenith CH 750 aircraft for sale and re-reads every one of them from the broker and dealer sites it watches, so the figures below move when the market moves. Every number on this page is measured from those live listings, not taken from a published price guide.
A Zenair / Zenith Zenith CH 750 flies about 382 nm, roughly 707 km, which is about 4 h 23 min in still air at typical cruise.
A Zenair / Zenith Zenith CH 750 costs about EUR 1,172 a month to run, or about EUR 146 for every flight hour when it is flown 150 hours a year.
The Zenair / Zenith Zenith CH 750 is a two-seat, high-wing STOL aircraft designed by Chris Heintz and developed by Zenith Aircraft Company as a modern successor to the CH 701 concept. The CH 750 first flew in 2008 and has been sold primarily as an Experimental Amateur-Built kit, with factory-built light sport examples also seen in some markets. Its role is straightforward: short-field recreational flying, utility operations from grass strips, and owner-built aviation with simple systems and low operating complexity. It matters in the used market because it combines generous cabin access, rugged fixed landing gear, and very low-speed handling in a package that can fit the U.S. Light Sport Aircraft category when built and equipped accordingly.
Performance varies meaningfully with engine, propeller, weight, tires, and builder choices. Typical CH 750 STOL examples cruise around 75 to 90 knots, with economy cruise often lower than sleeker light sport aircraft. Published range is commonly around 300 nautical miles, depending on fuel capacity and power setting. Useful load is often in the 500 to 600 lb range, although each aircraft must be checked against its own weight and balance data. Published service ceiling figures are around 14,000 feet for suitable configurations. Common powerplants include the Rotax 912 series, Continental O-200, Jabiru 3300, and ULPower engines, generally in the 100 to 130 hp class.
The CH 750 seats two side by side in a wide, upright cabin with large doors, good outward visibility, and a simple baggage area behind the seats. The high wing, low sill, and tall cabin are useful for pilots who value access and visibility over cruise speed. Avionics are not standardized. Used aircraft may have basic analog instruments, compact VFR panels, or glass systems such as Dynon SkyView, Garmin G3X Touch, MGL, or similar experimental avionics. Buyers should evaluate installation quality, electrical documentation, radio performance, transponder and ADS-B compliance, and whether the panel suits day VFR, night VFR, or more advanced operations.
Used CH 750 aircraft are valued primarily by build quality, engine choice, total time, documentation, avionics, and overall empty weight. Important inspection points include wing and slat rigging, landing gear attachments, fuel system workmanship, control cable condition, firewall-forward installation, corrosion protection, logbook completeness, and compliance with operating limitations. Common upgrades include modern EFIS panels, ADS-B, larger tires, upgraded brakes, improved cabin finish, and ballistic parachute installations. In the market, the CH 750 usually sits as a practical STOL-focused light sport or experimental aircraft rather than a cross-country cruiser. It appeals most to buyers prioritizing short-field capability, visibility, simplicity, and maintainability.
