For Europa builders in Canada.
We will be flying our Classic Europa (Rotax 912S with Airmaster VP prop.)
across Canada next month.
Our goal is to leave B.C. Vancouver area around the 19th August to arrive in
Brampton in time for their Fly In on Aug. 24. We expect to be based in
Brampton a few days prior, weather permitting. Then we head east with a
goal of being at the Stanley, Nova Scotia Fly In for Labour Day, Sept. 1.
Hope we shall see some of you there.
However, it occurred to us some builders on our route may be interested to
meet and compare notes. If you are, please reply to our personal e-mail:
cptimm@telus.net
subject: Europa Coast to Coast
(this will put your mail into our Europa folder where we can be sure it's
not spam)
and we will try to include your airport as one of our stops.

Heres a question I would welcome more than one response to. While standing
behind my Europa about 10 feet, sighting in and centering the top of the fin
to the space between the doors in the top of the fuselage, I have noticed
that just the top front of the fin appears to be 1 to 2 degrees towards
port. Keeping in mind the fin is completed and the rudder is temporarily
mounted. The sternpost and rudder are perfectly straight. Since I dont have
an engine mounted yet and its a tri gear you can notice it more with the
tail down. Could any of you look at yours to see if I am the only one with
this phenomenon? This may be a blessing in climb out but a big cruse
problem, or maybe a designed in the fin. Or maybe I did something wrong but
I cant imagine what, as the top went on without any problems.
Thanks in advance to any one that can check their plane,
Jeff Roberts
